The Only 3 Cleaning Products You Need

[@NPAMike]

I work for a pharmaceutical company. We use a product that contains distilled vinegar on our walls. You can use it to clean your walls every couple of months then let it sit for an hour then clean it with water. It helps prevent and kills mold.

[@juanlperezaguilar6656]

We use it in our pharmacy too. Smell is pretty strong but only lasts a few minutes

[@beafalcon3522]

Been using Salsuds for years now. Converted quite a few friends. Amazing cleaner. I always have boxes of baking soda at the ready. So cheap and effective for my scrubbing and deodorizing needs. I haven't needed to buy commercial cleaners for at least 10 years.

[@giverny28]

I have the same routine as you. I do 2 things slightly different. 1. I infuse my vinegar with citrus peel for the oil and a bit of smell good. whenever we use citrus, we store the peels in the freeze until there are enough to infuse. Just another way to reduce waste. since they can't be fed to any animals and don't do well in our worm bin, I needed a way to use and benefit from them. With 3 kids... you know we can eat some oranges pretty quickly! 2. If something needs disinfecting, I use hydrogen peroxide. I used to be addicted to products, especially air freshers. so glad to be of all those chemicals and saving money too. thanks for the video.

[@leefollett3205]

My first batch is ready today of that orange peel and vinegar mixture! I've been on an orange kick, I ended up putting alot in my compost bin but I'm not confident about it.... so I appreacite the tip about freezing them!

[@matthewjackson9615]

I used dr. Bronner's in my laundry for the first time to try it out. I was skeptical at first but the results were superb. It was the cleanest I've ever seen my laundry. It really works.

[@elaineford3598]

YES, this is cleaning gold! I'm slowly replacing almost all of the conventional cleaners I use regularly in my house with these dupes. I suffer from contact allergies and these all natural cleaning products have saved my skin. Thank you for sharing!

[@jcoopes5604]

I switched many years ago and still have all the others sitting around and don’t know what to do with them as they are chemicals and don’t want to just toss them!

[@leesmith516]

A woman after my own heart. This is how I have been cleaning too ...but I didn't know about adding SalSuds. Will get some now! :-) Thank you for sharing.

[@rachellorton4693]

I just recently discovered Sal Suds, and I’m in love! I started using it for laundry and it works amazingly. I want to start using it to clean though too. Thanks for this info!

[@deborahablair743]

Jamie? I have been wanting a less cluttered life from stuff, cleaning and lord the the list goes on. I was looking for canning info since I have only done the canning without a pressure canner and something made click your channel. What a blessing. I love how you talk to us as if we're right in your home with you as if we are part of your family, you explain so we can understand, no nuisance talking, you explain what you do, why you it and where we can get the items you talk about. I have been what I call a low level prepper, parents grew up during the depression so that was instilled in me. We homesteaded growing up ,back then it wasn't called that you just did it. Since finding your channel and watching everything I can, I now have purchased my first ever pressure canner, I researched like you suggested and go the All American 925, I dipped in to my stash to get it. You have rejuvenated me to get back on track with my life that I want for me. I have been on my own for 2 decades not by choice, That kinda put a wrench into my life. Now, because of your channel and what you share, and all your followers share I am getting back on track for me and can't wait to try all the cool information you share.Thank You so much for doing what you and your family do for us out here is youtube land.

[@tinaburnham8047]

We use white vinegar and baking soda to unclog a clogged drain. Put the baking soda down first then pour in the vinager let it sit for about 1-2 hours, run hot water through it. If you need to do it again but should be good to go. The other day the kitchen sink faucet was running slow due to mineral build up, my husband unscrewed the strainer I put it in a jar with backing soda then vinager and let soak about 15 mins. Good as new and didn't have to buy a new strainer for the faucet.

[@mackshaffer1923]

Tina Burnham yes, you are right and we do the same in the shower, when my wife's hair begins to clog the drain. This works very well and clears it up in no time.

[@luthormendez1375]

About the second paragraph, do you mean while it's still covered in baking soda for how many minutes, you put the vinegar then? I heard that baking soda + vinegar just cancels each other out.

[@labreeskarogers1102]

I have started using your method and it is saving me roughly $100-$170 a year

[@ashleym4030]

Love This❤ My husband and I are on our path to becoming debt free. We're wanting to move to Wv when he gets out the Army in 8 months. I can't wait to homestead!!

[@williambakos2716]

Stumbled across your channel and we love it. Working on the beginning stages of paying off debt and moving towards self sufficient living. We agree 100% on cleaning products except we mostly bought at a dollar stores so not expensive but not healthy either.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

I think the key is to stop buying into all the marketing hype that you need expensive products for every chore. Whether you use the products I use, or just cheap products from the dollar store, it's all accomplishing the same goal. Good for you guys!

[@JesusPrayerTeam450]

I put 4 thieves EO in my vinegar. added disifectant and it smells great

[@elizabethbjugstad4261]

I've switched from various cleaning chemicals to using E-cloths! They just use water, and are a cheaper version of the famous Norwex brand. I mop, clean windows, dust, clean surfaces like tables and counters, and clean sinks and outside of the toilets with their products! They have a variety of products. I highly recommend!

[@shukaistudio]

Great video! I use all 3 products to clean my house as well. A tip for the vinegar spray- I put used lemons from cooking in a jar of vinegar and let it sit for a week, this will remove the vinegar smell and infuse with refreshing lemon scent. Then I use it as all purpose cleaning spray for counter, bathroom, kitchen, everything! One question I have... what do you do for laundry?

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Regular cheap detergent. The homemade ones ended in a mess of mildew that took weeks to clear up.

[@hustla8308]

What do you use for stainless steel?

[@kathyhaynes6818]

I've been using The Honest Company cleaning products, which I love, but I can't wait to try your simple recipes. I just ordered the Sal Suds and I already have the other ingredients. This is going to be awesome! Thank you for sharing!!

[@Guildbrookfarm]

You're welcome :0)

[@lilicollazo750]

You guys are awesome! This is one of the most useful sites I have seen. The information is always on target. I appreciate your honest and balanced way of communicating the information and your willingness to share. Thank you!

[@mindibear]

Just found your channel... love it!! One of my cleaning tricks is using microfiber cloths. They clean almost everything and all you need is water. They work great for windows, mirrors and dusting furniture and countertops.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

+Mindi Bear Great tip! Thanks for sharing

[@bearcreekgirl6967]

use orange or lemon peel for scenting your cleaners

[@adailydaughter6196]

I do that 😊

[@luthormendez1375]

How?

[@Carol_Pearson]

When my oldest nephew was born, my sister in law told me about the vinegar and baking soda. She had been looking for ways to clean that would be healthier for an infant to be around than standard cleaning products. (Also, for those of us who have migraines when we're around the smells of ammonia based cleaners too often, the baking soda and vinegar are good options.)

[@Guildbrookfarm]

We like it! Thanks for watching!

[@johnsothcott5488]

You might also like to consider using 3% Hydrogen Peroxide made from 30% food grade HO2 and distilled water. Look up its uses you may be surprised. Also for consumption you should use aluminium free Bicarbonate of Soda. Love your videos.

[@karenswell-preppedpantry3740]

Sal Suds works great for laundry as well

[@MysticalMissM111]

I am just starting on this path of non toxic cleaning. Thanks for your video! . :) In my concerns over residual chemicals in my home, I will be using new bottles for my products or only bottles from previously chemical free products. The chemicals and especially “fragrances” (artificial) in commercial products become embedded in various materials etc. (From what I have learned ) and it certainly seems to be true. I tried cleaning out a Mrs. Meyers spray bottle to use for a DIY non-toxic spray cleaner and used everything I could think of including white vinegar and baking soda to clean out the bottle to rid it of the fragrances and chemicals, but it was completely unsuccessful. It is truly shocking how embedded the chemical fragrances become - I think it is particularly difficult to remove from plastic. They also become embedded in our clothes etc. when we wash our clothes in a detergent with artificial fragrance, but it is possible I believe to wash it out of fabric eventually. - thankfully!

[@cindybraden80]

Hello, I know this video is old but just wanted to say thank you for the information that you share. I saw someone else asking about septic tank issues and I heard you say you still use bleach from time to time. Once I switch to your method of cleaning I’m sure I will use bleach for my whites unless there is a better alternative that you know of. Also, someone asked about the front loader and dry cleaning ingredients, what do you use? I’m new to your channel but so glad I came across this today. Thanks for all of the information.

[@PeterLawton]

I have a suggestion, a wish really. I find a lot of your prepping/self sufficiency ideas interesting and in the case of an SHTF, particularly useful. But if the SHTF, I might very well not be able to access the Internet, KZbin, or your videos. So it would be great to have a library of such videos (I have solar panels). Your hubby could produce DVD's by month, year, by topic, or whatever and you two could them sell them as an alternate form of revenue.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Thanks for the idea Peter. Most of our videos are for putting into place now, before SHTF, but we will definitely take that into consideration.

[@carolynfloyd5586]

I too would be interested to buy a DVD compilation of all your very well thought out and implemented homesteading videos. Even if we are not in a SHTF scenario, we rely on solar, wind and hydro power, so we would not be going online every time I wanted to review your videos, as enjoyable & instruct-able as they are:)

[@Guildbrookfarm]

+Carolyn Floyd - This is something we will be releasing soon.

[@heavyhauler5701]

You could use a KZbin video downloader, save to an external hard drive or a thumb drive. Then use it if the internet ever goes down, but you still have some sort of power. I have yet to do it (don't have a computer), but a few friends of mine gave me the low down. I'll try to find the links.

[@luthormendez1375]

What's SHTF?

[@theeverydayoahumama6857]

Just wanted to say we care across your channel (my kids and I) while doing research on leaving hens and I have really enjoyed what we have watched from you so far. It’s nice when find other like minded families. We have learned a lot from you in a short time, and also it’s nice to see when we use some of the same things in our home already, ie cleaning products, homeopathic wellness, and the like. It reassures me that we seem to be on the right path as far as being kind to ourselves and our earth. Again, loving what you are doing on here! You are an inspiration. We have SLOWLY been making small changes in our home, working our way up the homesteading path. Mahalo (thank you) for sharing all your ‘ike (knowledge). We wish you all the best.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Welcome 🙏🏻

[@wenzworld]

There are other spray mops available with refillable cleaning fluid bottles. Rubbermaid makes one called Reveal. They also come with washable, reusable pads.

[@maryngshwuling9916]

I stumbled w your videos yesterday 3-6-18 at 6:00 pm it is now 3-7-18 at 12:40pm it's time to take a shower eat and get some sleep your videos have been very inspirational to me I've been meaning to start learning to can for a long time I will soon start I will buy all my supplies through your Channel so you can get your little profit I am looking for a piece of land to move and start my homesteading I will use the rest of this year to find the right State the right piece of land for the right price. Thanks, Eduardo

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Thank you very much and welcome! 😊

[@janiceb4679]

Vinegar and I have a love hate relationship. I hate the smell of it, but I love using it to clean my house AND more interestingly just found out spraying it on my dogs after a bath alleviates the yeast that causes them to smell so "doggy". They do not smell like salad afterwards, they just smell clean. Incidentally, I just purchased a small ten, yes ten dollar bottle of vinegar at a specialty store tonight. It is blackberry ginger balsamic. It's sassy tastin'. I guess when you save so much money on cleaning products, you can use it to purchase other things in life that you value more.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

+Janice B I don't mind the vinegar smell, it dissipates after a few minutes. Never knew that about dog odor - thanks for sharing. Enjoy your balsamic :0)

[@shannonlancaster]

Thanks a bunch!!

[@YanasaTV]

I'd never heard of Dr. Bronners! Will definitely look into it. Thanks!!

[@janetlis2613]

Yanasa Ama Ranch it's a really great product. I make shampoo with it.

[@MrsSoapPeddlersHomestead]

Thanks for the couch idea! Never thought of that one!

[@bp4548]

I don't have sal suds but I have dr bronners liquid soaps and I use vinegar everywhere! I'm slowly moving over to being green and more self sufficient. Teaching my kids in the process.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Sal Suds is stronger than the regular castile. We use castile as well, but for other uses such as hand soap.Try it and see if you like it better!

[@David_four_twenty]

Awesome information thank you :)

[@musdmoby9744]

I love dr.bronners peppermint soap, the Castile ones anyway. they are a bit expensive but it's a cheap luxury.

[@olgapalenzuela-king9172]

Thanks. The other miracle one would be Borax. My niece would put a dab on her fingertip then place on her aching tooth and pain would disappear in less than 5 minutes. And I love essential oils, I remember using Cinnamon oil in a small bucket of sudsy water at my daughter's apartment a few years ago, and I used a little more to give it that nice holiday scent which lasted for hours and hours. It is very strong so only a few drops are needed. Another excellent one is Clove oil which has the highest rating and it will Kill any bug instantly, naturally mixed with water in a sprayer bottle and add a little salt or soap to help mix the clove oil. Those two oils are the Cheapest and Most effective for just about everything and is usually under $10. The only oil I have never been able to purchase is Rose oil because it is at least $200 for a very tiny bottle but it has the highest frequency of all, and the higher your frequency, the less sickness will come to your body. Another one to have, in hot weather, is peppermint, a few drops Under your feet will bring your temperature down. It will increase your energy too much if put on your skin plain, so only a drop in some lotion on the palm of your hand.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Thanks for sharing

[@justyna.1979]

Borax should never be ingested even in small amounts. It is natural and great for laundry but it is also toxic when eaten.

[@essemsween818]

Olga Palenzuela You should save all of your Citrus Peel as well, Whether Grapefruit, Orange, Lemon or Lime, they all have a very strong aroma (there's a reason so many cleaning products are 'flavoured' with them) and great grease-cutting properties (Yes, I know it's 'Scented' not Flavoured) but you can make your Vinegar Water/Bicarb mixture smell like a Spanish Orange Farm or a Tuscan Lemon Grove by 'bunging' (such an elegant word don'cha think? 😂) the peel into your spray bottle to brew for a bit. Like steeping your tea leaves.

[@firewolf11SG]

I agree & most especially for pets. We're always trying a variety of ways to make such products from scratch while still making sure that there's nothing that will harm our puppy babies.

[@catalinaungureanu1558]

Essential oils are all dangerous for pets!

[@zulu700]

Your videos are both inspiring and informative. I appreciate you sharing.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Thanks for watching

[@valfrez3786]

Love essential oils! !!

[@tripudium17]

It may not be considered frugal but in the last year I started used laundry strips. I used to dilute Pink Solution for laundry but I live in an apartment and the strips as so convenient!

[@luthormendez1375]

Ma'am, at 5:55 I don't quite understand. Other cleaning experts have said that baking soda + vinegar cancel each other out. How do you actually apply it? Is it like how you do with clogged drains?

[@onedazinn998]

Yep...those are the products I use except I had to use another biodegradable detergent (I had Mrs Meyers on hand) though I use Dr Bronners when I have it. We have a stainless steel shower...and getting the hard water stains off was great when I made a scrubbing past of baking soda, vinegar & a squirt of the liquid soap. I think I got the suggestion from www.wellnessmamma.com. I had to use a stainless steel scrubber...I let it sit for 30 minutes, scrubbed with the scrubber then rinsed with hot water. I started using these products because we are on a septic system and I was so used to using bleach before when I lived in the city. I use a spray bottle of 1/2 water, 1 teasp soap and about 4 tbsp of vinegar to run sugar ants off (it kills them dead & deters scouts but you have to respray for a few days....this also makes a nice overall cleaner for toilet bowl if you don't flush til it's orange o.- Vinegar, baking soda, & salt is God's cleaning sanitizing crew I do believe. :) Instead of prepping pantry with bleach...I now prep vinegar, baking soda, & coconut oil...so handy.

[@amethystsamia]

Zote Soap is a very inexpensive soap that can be used for everything from laundry detergent, home cleaners, and body/hair soap. Very inexpensive at Walmart. Makes liquid or powdered laundry detergent as well.

[@debrothermund9448]

Love this video. I make my cleaning products, laundry soap, use vinegar as fabric softener too. I make deodorant, tooth paste and body butter, as well as face moisturizer. I enjoy making them and you are right, a few items used to make many products. Saves $$ and is healthier. My laundry soap is a years supply for about 5 bucks. Can't beat that. I love it. My friend and I share recipes and research benefits. We call ourselves the hippy chicks.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

I haven’t found a laundry soap that works for me yet...but it could be my front load washer, not the soap. Moving to a top load and will experiment again

[@workinonit9562]

Thank you, I only buy a couple of products but have been wanting to switch to things we already have, will be looking into the Sal Suds.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Let me know how it works for you

[@timraven9305]

We use Doterra onguard concentrate for our cleaning needs. We run a dog kennel and that is all we use. It is safe for the dogs who lick the floors and won't hurt them and smells great!

Thank you!

[@rebekahpagedesigns]

Same game plan here but we use Downeast environmental home are liquid dish soap instead of sals because for us it’s local :). I also use it as (of course) dish soap and in hand soap pumps. Curious what you use for dishy and laundry 🧺

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Excellent! Welcome to the channel and thanks for watching!

[@Guildbrookfarm]

You are welcome

[@erindav1]

I never heard of Sals soap either. It claims to be a natural product but I checked it out and this is what the ingredients are :Water, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Coco-Betaine, Decyl Glucoside, Abies Siberica (Siberian Fir) Needle Oil, Picea Glauca (Spruce) Leaf Oil, Citric Acid, Sodium Sulfate, Sodium Chloride, Potassium Hydroxide. Wouldn't Dawn be just as effective?

[@simplegreensco3223]

The chemicals in dawn are really harsh and dangerous.never though Sal Suds does have SLS, dawn has so much worse. One example is yellow 5

[@Shellell]

This is our next big change, I looked under the kitchen counter at my cleaning supplies and I have nearly 30 different bottles, mostly method too. Going to order this stuff and replace them as they run out the with doctor Bronners solution.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Yep I was there scratching my head at the same thing

[@karlagrecar4317]

thanks, I have never heard of sal suds before, gatta try it.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

It is out of stock right now by the manufacturer, but should be back in soon for you to try.

[@labreeskarogers1102]

I am definitely about to change my cleaning

[@neverenoughdirt]

Very informative and inspirational video, guys. Never heard of Sal Suds before and may give it a try. Will, definitely use baking soda more. Especially the baking soda + vinegar tub scrub.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

The chemical reaction helps to lift the stains. It can take a few tries and some elbow grease but it does work. Let me know how it works for you

[@neverenoughdirt]

(I wrote a more articulate reply. The mojo to rewrite was lost with it; anyways...) I value your authentic and objective reply-- as I also found baking soda and vinegar required more elbow grease. However, the formulated products produce fumes that I much rather not breathe in. In short, I will be using baking soda and vinegar more often. Additionally, the bubbling of baking soda is pretty fun to experience. Thanks again for sharing. Hope you guys have a pleasant Sunday and a wonderful week ahead. -Brian

[@Guildbrookfarm]

I agree on the fumes. Glad to hear you will be using this and you have a wonderful week as well!

[@hopehodson4466]

Thanks, Jamie! Your channel is amazing. I appreciate you

[@rough-hewnhomestead4751]

Does all this kill bacteria and viruses? Like for the toilet or counter when cooking. Or if someone in the house is sick etc.

+Rough-Hewn Homestead Awesome :0)

[@maricaplasmans6061]

Can I do laundry to with the Sal Suds. Living in the Netherland I will need to go look for it, but every now and then I have a stain that won't come out. I use plain salt, not the kitchen salt, for my laundry and a tiny bit of vinigar on new cloths for keeping collor. Works like a charm, but not for heavy duty stains.

[@maricaplasmans6061]

o and I use tinctures for smells, not as expencive as essencial oils.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

+Marica Plasmans Yes you can! But I haven't tried it personally: www.lisabronner.com/sal-suds-in-the-laundry/

[@maricaplasmans6061]

Defenatly try this when I get the money safed to buy me some sal suds from overthere. Or look for a store here that sells it.

[@annaowens4088]

I like to leave lemon peels and cinnamon sticks in my vinegar for about a month before I use it, and it makes the smell much more pleasant.

[@NanaTrece9444]

Have you ever tried cheap vodka instead of vinegar? Vodka doesn't have a smell like vinegar. Vodka and water is a great degreaser. I also use vodka, water & essential oil for a fabric spray. Also recently heard about using cream of tartar instead of baking soda.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

+Latrece Preston Any vodka in this house isn't getting used as a cleaner ;0)

[@heidimeigs5192]

Like a lot of people I have a HE washing machine. What is the best formula for using in it? I wash my clothing in cold/cool water, but use warm/hot for towels, sheets, underwear. Is one formula good for both? I don’t want to cause any unintentional damage to my machine.. thanks.

[@MrsRGAllen]

According to Google, baking soda and vinegar neutralize each other. Therefore, by combining them you lose the benefit of both products.

[@bearpaws4703]

Hi. Thank you for your videos. I find them very informative. I just bought Sal-Suds. I had to review the video again for the mix ratio. Was it 12 or 16 oz to 1/2 T of Sal-Suds for shower and kitchen counter?

[@donnabailey929]

Hey I see a Daffins candy box on your counter. Daffins are near me. Wonder if you are? I’m in Ohio. Right on PA line. Love your videos. Trying to watch the older ones to get caught up.

You are not kidding on how much to spend on products. I try to get multipurpose stuff. I use method cleaner, comet and Clorox wipes.

[@littlegreenachers9997]

thank you so much for this great video I love the information I was just wondering what do you use for your laundry

[@Guildbrookfarm]

You are welcome. As for laundry, I use regular detergent. I tried several DIY versions but my laundry developed a mildew odor from it . Possibly due to my water. Apparently some people have luck with DIY detergent, I didn't.

[@littlegreenachers9997]

Ok thanks

[@MrsMesia]

I had the same experience with home-made laundry soap. Turns out it wasn't the laundry soap, it was my front end loading washing machine. I ended up buying a new washing machine. (not to gross you out but look up mold in front end loading washing machines)

[@HistoryHighwithLisaMarrie]

New subscriber! Have been enjoying your videos! I've been dehydrating a lot of lemon and instead of throwing away the ends I've been using them to infuse my vinegar for cleaning. Gives it a nice lemon smell plus extra cleaning. The DIY laundry powder also makes an excellent cleaner for tubs, tiles and sink so it does double duty. The only thing left on my must buy list is the blue Dawn dish liquid, it boosts cleaning power, removes laundry stains and kills fleas on the dog!

[@Guildbrookfarm]

+thelmarrie Thanks for the tips!

[@nancyfahey7518]

I use watered down vinegar on my body and hair after a shower. It gets rid of soap and shampoo residue.

[@nancyfahey7518]

Oh and then spray the shower too. Hehe

[@starryeyedwish8005]

This is so helpful thank you, what do you use to clean your clothes?

[@heidigibbons1207]

You can make your own laundry detergent and softener too. See good earth spa on you tube

[@louisemichel4678]

thanks do you have a mixture for your hand wash dishes ?

[@janetlis2613]

Borax is natural and great also. I also dissolve 1/2 tesp and put in liter of water and drink all day. Its minerals for the body.

[@private.sojourner]

Thank you! What do you use for your laundry?

[@WanderingAroundAZ]

You can use the Sal Suds as your detergent. For softener, distilled white vinegar works great. If you’re addicted to scents, buy wool dryer balls and put a couple drops of essential oil on them before tossing them in the dryer.

[@nellspop1]

another awesome video, well done. In one of your other videos when you were making stale bread recipes i noticed you had the baking pan and glass bottles on top of your stove. Is that a glass top stove? and what do you use to clean it? i have tried wverything and nothing really works. Thank you

[@Guildbrookfarm]

I just use the kitchen spray in the video and/or sometimes the vinegar. I have tried special glass top cleaners and they do no better

[@20315711978]

Great vid. Question. Do you use bleach at all? Many thanks,

Nice natural toxic free way to clean for sure!

[@terrydunn4474]

For hard water stains and difficult stains or caked on stuff, just use Sal Suds full strength and let sit for 20-30 minutes and then scrub. It'll come off.

[@lp.7102]

What do you use for clothing?

[@kleineroteHex]

I do either vinegar or I add some rubbing alcohol to my window wash water, works great as well, though the vinegar is cheaper, but you don't need much alcohol, I get the dollar store bottles for a buck.

Came across this for a school thing, and i was wondering, what kinds of essentual oils would you recommend for people with alot of allergies? Is there a hypoallergenic type?

Do you have a DIY for leather preservative? It’s winter time coming, and I want to protect jackets, gloves, and boots. The store bought stuff is so expensive! Depending on what is bought, its often a “wax,” but not a moisturizer- and not helpful whatsoever. I am looking for a moisturizer especially for older gear. Thanks for such great videos. Even a city slicker like me gets a ton of info from your videos. I dream of when I can get out to the rat race and live like your family does.
