Shhhh.... It's Nap Time!

I swear now that my girls have become teens. (Well one is a teen now and the other is almost one) They take more naps than they did when they were little. Right now the oldest girly is asleep in the recliner. The youngest is stretched out on the couch with the Chi pup. Both sleeping.

YAY! I don't have to hear any arguing, griping or complaining! Maybe it was the hour they spent outside playing (trying to nail each other with snow!) outside. Or maybe its the teen syndrome. You know where they do nothing but sleep, eat and text. With a few grunts mixed in when you ask them any questions.

There is not much going in this house today. Still have lots of snow. Doing the usual laundry ( a never ending process.) I think little trolls dirty more clothes while I sleep.

I do have a little review to do. A few months back I got some cleaning supplies to test out. And needless to say I never got around to doing the review. Lots of things happened in between getting the product and reviewing them. (I'll blog about that later.)
Better late than never. So without further ado... here it is.

http://www.ecostore.co.nz/ contacted me months ago wondering if I would be interested in testing some of their products. And then write a review for them.
I love house cleaning products... cleaning itself I'm not a fan of.. But the products I love. go figure

A little background on the company from their website: They are a leading New Zealand retailer of household and personal care products. We promote safer healthier alternatives to conventional everyday products.

The nice lady that contacted me let me choose what I wanted to try. Full size bottles.
I picked the Ultra Concentrated Laundry Liquid and the Spray Cleaner.

First up the laundry liquid. They have since changed the bottle design it now looks more like a regular bottle of detergent.
It only takes a tablespoon or two. It soaps up rather well and has a very light smell. No floral or perfume smells either. It has a eucalyptus smell, not overpowering . I thought it cleaned just as good as the store bought variety.
It cost 8.95 for 500ml- that might seem a little pricey. But the bottle lasted me over a month. And I do alot of laundry.

Next up the Spray Cleaner.
It is another plant based cleaner. This one has a light citrus scent. Just like the detergent it is not overpowering either.
It costs 6.95 for a bottle with a trigger or 5.95 for just a refill.

I really liked the products and looking at the website they have lots of other home and health products for the eco minded person. So check them out and see what you think.




*I was given the 2 bottles of cleaner for free in exchange for my honest opinion. Just because I am sent a product to review does not mean it will receive a positive review.

Stopping by from SITS. Aren't teenagers funny? You try for so many years to get them to nap, and then they get older and you give up and they... nap! Whatever!
