Last time I mentioned something about not using fabric softener because it's not good for the environment. Well it just so happened that when I went shopping yesterday I noticed that there is a bio-degradable, made from natural sources fabric softener sold at Extra Foods, it by the same brand as my laundry detergent, Purex.
However, don't make the mistake of purchasing their blue bottle of laundry soap or softener, they're not meant for the eco-friendly home. It's Purex's green bottles that are the environmentally friendly products. So now you know :)
As for the antiperspirant, I have my stick of the good smelling stuff glaring at my conscious every time I go to the bathroom. Does anyone know of a brand of environmentally friendly antiperspirants that actually work as good as these other chemical monsters? I am looking for solutions, to have a truly eco friendly home and I don't want any 'little exceptions' you know? I'm going to be on the look out for such a product now.
In the meantime though, did you know the antiperspirant and deodorant containers are recyclable? I toss mine in the recycle bin now, don't forget to do yours. That feels good at least, although we've got to realize it's not enough.
Please let me know of a product if you've used one that can meet the standards of those 'chemical' kinds, I know something is out there for my eco-friendly home, those chemist guys just didn't try hard enough, that's all.
I'll keep you posted on my findings, till next time,
Ayisha
