Did you know it’s not as hard as you think to reduce the amount of chemicals in your home? From our food to our personal care products to our cleaning products there are some quick and easy changes we can make.
Don’t feel you have to clear out all of your cupboards, throw everything away and start from scratch. I suggest taking it a step at a time – when you’re nearly out of a particular item, change to something that is better for you and better for the environment.
I started with the things that were easiest for me. Making my own seasonings, dressings, etc.
- Taco Seasoning
- Mayonnaise
- Ranch Dressing
- Dry Rubs and Marinades
I then started making my own cleaning products and personal care followed on.
- Laundry Powder
- Citrus Cleaner
- Hand & Body Scrubs
- Body Butter
- Deodorant
These are all things you can make at home and don’t need specialist equipment or ingredients to make.
