Libby Chan Concentrate

Here at The Amazing Blog we are in love with the green revolution. Whether it’s the products we use to meet our beauty needs or the goods we use to keep our homes clean, we try and make sure all ingredients are completely natural and safe. Now that we’ve got our hands on the Libby Chan concentrate, we are confident that this product will help our lives stay green and clean.

Libby Chan concentrate is made from all-natural ingredients and fermented from food. Yes, we did say fermented! The ingredients are non-GMO, fair trade, and include live yogurt cultures and yeast in the list. Unlike antibacterial products that completely strip a surface making it prone to germs and filth, this product is filled with “good bacteria” keeping all unwanted forms of bacteria at bay.  Instead of a harsh, insufficient clean, Libby Chan concentrate gently cleans with “good bacteria,” leaving your home spick and span.

Libby Chan concentrate left the office with a pleasant earthy scent, reminding us of freshly baked bread. No matter what the circumstances may be, this cleaning product is sure to take the "think green" movement to a whole new level.

On the Libby Chan website there is a wonderful list of local retailers that supply the brand- check here  to see if your area is on the list or buy online here  for prices ranging from £8.99 to £12.79.

Greenscents Cleaning Products

Most cleaning supplies on the shelves today are stock full of harmful chemicals. Personally, I despise all those synthetic cleaning agents especially when they leave residue on my counters. It's even worse when those pesky chemicals dry out my hands. Here at The Amazing Blog, my colleagues and I are always looking for organic and natural replacements, so when Greenscents crossed our paths we knew we found a winner. Greenscents is a family run company that is committed to creating sustainable and ethically sourced cleaning solutions using only organic ingredients.

Out of the many products Greenscents has to offer, I have chosen to highlight three including the Non-Scented Laundry Liquid, the Lavender Multi-Surface Spray and the Citrus Washing Up Liquid. The Non-Scented Laundry Liquid was powerful and yet, gentle at the same time. This concentrated formula left clothes feeling fresh and clean. Quite honestly, I prefer non-scented laundry detergent as those with a fragrance tend to smell a bit tacky. And, most importantly, this liquid was sensitive and did not have an effect on my skin.  The Lavender Multi-Surface Spray claims to be ideal for bathrooms, kitchens and any hard surfaces. Here in the office it was perfect for cleaning up tea spills and oily fingerprints. I was quite pleased with this anti-bacterial spray. The Citrus Washing Up Liquid, which is definitely my favourite, not only smells incredible but easily cleans away any sort of mess on your dishes, pans and silverware. And it's fast too. Before leaving the office I always have to clean my tea mugs and this washing liquid really helps speed up the process. Not to mention, the bright citrus smell lingers around helping maintain that fresh clean feeling we all love.

Greenscents' products are truly a step above those traditionally found on the shelves. This company has developed excellent organic cleaning agents without sacrificing the quality. With my hands still moisturised and the office feeling clean I can proudly say that Greenscents is definitely recommend - especially if you have the same pet peeves as I do. You can purchase your own Greenscents essentials from their website from anywhere between £2 to £6.

EcoForce - Cleaning Products

When it comes to buying everyday household items, we at The Amazing Blog always lean towards those that are ‘green’ and eco-friendly. So when we received several cleaning products from EcoForce, we were really chauffed.

EcoForce is a unique brand that aims to reduce their carbon footprint at every possible level of production. All of their products are made from at least 90% recycled material, which reduces landfill waste, conserves precious fossil fuels and uses 70% less energy than new plastics. And with all their designing and manufacturing taking place here in the UK, EcoForce provides a ‘greener’ and more sustainable alternative to traditional cleaning items. From the wide array of products they offer, we were fortunate enough to receive their Scourers, Sponges, Cloths and Dusters. The scourers and sponges worked great around the sink and kitchen: mopping up messes and cleaning dishes with ease. While the cloths and dusters were useful around the office: cleanin up spilled tea and wipping off dirty fingerprints. Each item was perfect for some light household cleaning.

If the environmental benefits aren’t convincing enough, the price of all these products are extremely affordable. Ranging from £1 to £5, any of these products (and more) can be purchased on their website and in most supermarkets here in the UK - including Whole Foods. EcoForce makes it easy to be green while you clean.
