STEP 7 – TOXIN FREE SOAP

broken image

How many times a day do you lather SOAP onto your skin? Between showering, handwashing, and chores, it can be way more than you are aware of.

Unfortunately, most soaps are full of fragrance. It’s what makes them smell appealing. We also tend to associate certain scents with cleanliness, so we feel as if our kitchen counter is cleaner if the soap we use to scrub it smells a certain way.

Soaps can also contain triclosan, formaldehyde, and harmful dyes and colours. Soap is one of the most important products to switch out for natural solutions, since every member of the family uses soap multiple times a day!

So let’s take a look at the alternatives.

BAR SOAP

We have three cleansing, skin-soothing bath bars to choose from. Each contains Essential Oils that are not only purifying to the skin, but also help support mood. They are gentle and keep skin feeling smooth and soft.

The MOISTURIZING BATH BAR contains Grapefruit and Bergamot Essential Oils. This combination is uplifting and energizing, but grounding at the same time. It also contains jojoba and aloe for extra moisturizing goodness!

The SERENITY RESTFUL BATH BAR is infused with the calming, soothing oils found in the Restful Blend: Lavender, Cedarwood, Ylang, Ylang, Marjoram, Roman Chamomile, Ho Wood, Vetiver, and Vanilla. This is a great option for a warm, evening bath. You’ll feel relaxed and ready for sleep in no time!

The CITRUS BLISS INVIGORATING BATH BAR is the perfect choice for an invigorating morning shower. It contains many uplifting oils, including Wild Orange, Lemongrass, Bergamot, Lemon, Grapefruit, Tangerine, Mandarin, Clementine, and Vanilla. It also contains milled oatmeal, which will leave your skin feeling stimulated and gently exfoliated.

FOAMING SOAP

The ON GUARD PROTECTIVE BLEND FOAMING HAND WASH will gently clean your hands without irritating skin. It’s made of uplifting Spice and Citrus Oils that will cleanse as well as leave your sink area smelling great. Just add it to a foaming pump bottle and keep at your kitchen and bathroom sinks for washing up.

HAND SANITIZER

Many hand sanitizers contain fragrance, triclosan, and parabens. The Essential Oil solution is the ON GUARD PROTECTIVE BLEND SANITIZING MIST. It cleanses hands as well as surfaces by killing 99.9% of germs and bacteria. And as a bonus, it doesn’t dry out hands the way many hand sanitizers do, but instead moisturizes while it purifies.

BODY WASH

In addition to chemicals that aren’t good for your body, many commercial body and facewashes contain exfoliating or microbeads that are so small they can’t be filtered. This means they can get into the water system and be swallowed by fish and other wildlife. Yet another reason to seek natural products!

You’ll feel like you’ve come straight from the spa after using the REFRESHING BODY WASH! It’s full of gentle ingredients that will cleanse your skin without removing it of its natural oils. It includes the skin-supporting oils of Grapefruit, Bergamot, and Cedarwood without adding components that harm the environment.
