Safe Spring Cleaning with Simply Earth’s Fresh and Clean Essential Oil
Spring is on the way and, for many, that means spring cleaning! Did you know that many cleaning products bought in stores, although effective, have hidden harmful toxins? Natural and organic products, like pure essential oils, are the safest bet for your family and home, and, when you make the products yourself, you can save money and time while also making a sustainable choice. It checks all the boxes!
Simply Earth compiled the best cleaning essential oils—Fir Needle, Grapefruit, Lemon, and Neroli—to form their Clean & Fresh Essential Oil Blend. This essential oil blend fights bacteria and eliminates odors. It has a very crisp, uplifting scent that will help refresh your mind as you refresh your space for the new season!
This blend has two main uses: cleaning and freshening – go figure! Fir needle, grapefruit, and lemon essential oils have antimicrobial properties so when used in cleaning, like the disinfectant spray recipe below, it attaches to germs in the air and replaces them with their fresh scent. Neroli helps bring all these oils together to make a really nice aroma—and it also kills germs as well!
Clean & Fresh Essential Oil Blend is the perfect natural cleaning solution alternative for those who want to ditch those chemical-filled cleaning products. Come give it a sniff at your next adjustment with Renee at intūn and consider using it in your home!
