I too use, homemade shall we call them, cleaners mostly for the benefit of my allergies which can’t handle the artificial scents in store cleaners. It hasn’t hurt the pocketbook either!

Hi. Really enjoyed your great tips on the page. I’ve acutally gone over to using natural cleansers a long time ago. Vinegar, tea tree oil are also great for cleaning. For a long time I’ve also been makeing my own skin care products and I’ve noticed that my skin has acutally improved. This is because most skin care products and makeup is full of toxic chemicals. Probably natural makeup products aren’t any cheaper than the usual makeup you can buy at the store, but it’s much better for your skin. Thanks again for the great post!

Since when is baking soda organic? (It isn’t.) I’m going to bet that the vinegar you’re using isn’t organic either. Is there a USDA Organic seal on there?

The words “organic” and “natural” aren’t interchangeable. “Organic” has a concrete definition, spelled out in the Organic Foods Production Act. “Natural” doesn’t mean anything at all.

Those “natural” cleaners in the health food store: mostly chemicals.
