Natural Sink Scrub

Natural Sink Scrub

I believe the types of cleaners you use make a huge difference in your well being, especially when considering that they touch the surfaces you use to eat, sleep, and relax. Using essential oils to make homemade cleaning products means that not only are these products natural, but they are also cost-effective, eco-friendly, and make your home smell really good.

Less packaging and chemicals result in a more sustainable planet and a healthier home—these are values that I am passionate about, especially for young families.

When it comes to bathroom, kitchen, and laundry room sinks (where so much of a home’s action happens), I love this recipe for keeping things sparkling. It doesn’t completely disinfect, but cleans with the added benefits of aroma and makes the surfaces shine.
