The clean cult hand soap caused build up in my bathroom sink, not sure if it’s from the oils but the only way to remove it was with a brush or using my water pik to spray where I couldn’t reach.

[@KikiBethSays]

This is really helpful as an overview, I still mostly use conventional non-sustainable brands because I didn’t know where to start. If you continue this series may I suggest comparing the cost (per use) as well? That’s a huge factor and why I often find myself going for the conventional brands.

[@Kim.firsttimemomlife]

Kerste Beth would love to know that too!

[@notacanadian278]

When I was on a budget with very little time to diy my own products my favorite place to get them was the dollar tree. You can buy powdered versions of dishwasher detergent and laundry detergent in cardboard boxes. You can buy vinegar in a glass bottle and baking soda for 59 cents. They even have rubbing alcohol for sanitizing. I've even found all natural bar soap without packaging.

[@kathleen6288]

@@notacanadian278 That's good to know, I'm going to check out Dollar Tree. Thanks!

We started working on something like this towards the end and we will be creating a running list on my website so that as we add brands they’re all in one place.

[@tainoroyal6585]

One of the reasons I love this channel is that you are not trying to guilt us all into being perfect zero/low wasters. I really appreciate that you always consider the fact that we might be living/working with friends/partners/family who also have their own needs and preferences and provide lots of solutions/suggestions to accommodate them. Loved this episode!

Thank you thank you thank you for specifically mentioning that products were for general cleaning and not sanitizing! People aren't being 100% honest about that and it's important that we are!

Sadaf Ali for me it is a big deal that these products aren’t sanitizing. I hope these brands think about that.

i was so happy she said that too! at least general cleaning helps sanitizing products like bleach work better. but i really hope a sustainably made disinfecting product is made soon (or does exist and i just dont know about them)

I know I’m late but you should check out force of nature. I use a machine to make it at home and reuse the plastic spray bottle they gave me.

[@ChannelRichard]

I've been low-waste forever, but you just gave me the best refresher course in product updates. And you are fabulous and hilarious. Love.

[@Viennafly1]

I am SO glad companies like this exist now. I think a lot of household burden tends to fall on women. When I lived with my partner who didn't really care about zero-waste (it was more my thing), if I wanted anything zero-waste, I had to do all the DIYs, make purchasing decisions, do the cleaning in a zero-waste way. I ended up taking on at least 90% of our household affairs just to be zero-waste. The fact that these brands are out there now and I can order them online with a subscription is amazing. It takes so much of the burden off me, time-wise and emotionally. I love how equalizing stuff like this is.

[@kemaila]

we have been wanting to switch to a system because like you, we donʻt want to diy, we just want something we can order on subscription, but support companies doing things better and refrain from putting harmful shtuff in the water! Thank you Shelbiiii!!

[@stephanysanchez5531]

I’ve been using a mixture of things for cleaning. I got into using Blueland going on two years ago. It’s a great idea for people trying to get into the more sustainable lifestyle. The cleaners aren’t bad! I think people are expecting the cleaners to be tough on grime instead of being an everyday cleaner. So whenever I need the extra abrasive I use baking soda added on top of the Blueland bathroom cleaner. I like their hand soap, hands feel clean and I feel fancy with the foam. The glass cleaner works as well as windex and the multi surface does a pretty good job, even against one of the name brand cleaners. They even sent out an email regarding covid and antibacterial cleaners vs theirs. I thought it was super helpful and honestly if you’re cleaning any surface with some type of soap it’s going to wash away virus and bacteria from the surface. It’ll be fine, you don’t need sanitizing agents. Of course unless the surface can’t handle soap and water at all(which most can handle at least a bit).

[@monicavanbuskirk270]

Agreed. I only use their glass cleaner cause my DIYs never worked. But the tablets are great and get the glass streak-free clean.

[@Anonymously010]

Honestly, I’m Mexican and I don’t remember the last time I personally bought cleaning items. Lol I just use a eco friendly and biodegradable Mexican soap that I’ve been using since I was a kid. I use the same soap for cleaning, laundry, and showering. Yes, showering. Oh and washing my hands in the bathroom and kitchen. Oh and obviously dishes. It does come in a huge plastic bag, but that’s the only bag I use. As a Mexican growing up my grandma showed me using reusable bags for everything including our lunch. Lol

Your editing gets more inspiring every day! And I just love how you are so into sustainable living 😍. I had a sustainable fashion blog for years. Stopped before I moved because I struggled with al Pr packages😅.

[@ajlee4296]

We switched to TruEarth detergent a few months ago (bought a 384 load box) and not only is it my favorite eco friendly detergent, it’s by far my favorite laundry detergent, ever. Clothes are super clean, feel like they have less detergent build up. And I was able to decrease the storage space for our laundry to just a few inches. I am SO excited about this brand!

[@mackenziedwyer3095]

I freaking LOVE Dropps! I started buying their laundry and dish washer detergent about a year ago thanks to your channel :)

[@bhaley]

Considering using Dropps for laundry when they can ship across the border again. Was wondering if you'd let me know how your experience with it has been? :)

[@KokeshiKathy]

Brianna Hupman I’ve been using Dropps laundry pods for over a year and LOVE them. I use the Stain & Odor Laundry Detergent Pods, Clean Scent and my laundry comes out clean and fresh smelling. I want to mention several things as considerations though: 1st, my kids are grown and I don’t do much that causes much odor or stain removal need so my evaluation is based on low odor, low dirt laundry even though I do buy the Stain and Odor pods. 2nd, throughout my life, most traditional laundry scents irritated my sinuses and/or caused headaches so I needed to use unscented detergent/soap. Dropps clean scent does NOT irritate my sinuses and does not give me a headache. The scent is light and fresh and for me, not irritating.

[@1thetragicaffair]

You look amazing with and without makeup! I like how you think of the big picture when trying new brands! I did not know biodegradable can be define in different ways!

[@fjjjjjsdlfjslakjdf]

GIRRRRLLLL - I just need to say. I am so grateful for your channel. My family growing up was not conscious at all of waste. Paper towels in place of rags / napkins, went through costco-size packs of ziploc bags in a flash, single-use plastics for days, only saw the 'benefits' of single-serving [anything]. As I've gotten older (28yo nowadays) I've become much more environmentally aware, I was a strict vegan for years, and I've changed my habits. I'm not perfect and I'm always looking to improve and your videos are great for keeping me on track with being better! I just want to say how much I appreciate your channel and the effort you put in to make videos. I believe your impact is WAY bigger than you could possibly know. THANK YOU and keep up the awesome work! You're helping change the world, little by little. :) Thank you.

[@TWills32]

I recently purchased Blueland products (I got the set with the 3 cleaners and hand soap) and so far I am quite impressed. I used the bathroom cleaner for the first time on my toilet a few days ago, and wow. It got my toilet cleaner than any other product has! I mean, my toilet wasn't filthy by any means, but it just did so much better than anything else I've used. I love the multisurface cleaner, I use it all the time. I have yet to try the window cleaner, however, as I usually just use a microfiber cloth and water, maybe vinegar, then a clean rag to dry it. I really like the handsoap, too! My 8-year-old son loves the foaming soap, it makes washing his hands more fun for him so that's a huge plus. I am going to try Dropps next for my dishwasher and probably laundry (unless I decide on another zero waste brand). Thank you so much for these videos! I am now doing what I can to make my home as close to zero waste as possible by replacing my usual items once they run out with zero/reduced waste options. :)

[@mariak9085]

Dope necklace, and I absolutely love the way you mix your eyeshadow colors on every video💜 You are so passionate, and it inspired me to consider a few for myself. I want to change my laundry detergent too (The Arm and Hammer is good smelling, but for two working and working out people it takes a lot) , so I think I’ll get the sheets you talked about. Dr Bronner’s in dark blue mixed with water is my current choice of dish soap, floor cleaner, bathroom cleaner, and multi-surface cleaner. I tried it at my sister’s first, and when washing my hands I noticed how squeaky-clean they got. Keep in mind it is tough and can take off old wood stains (learned that the hard way), and certain paints can melt with it. Overall it worked magic on my walls too, taking off all grind from previous tenants and making them shiny again. The packaging is made from recycled plastic, and is to be recycled. They have a non-scented version too. Thank you!🦋

If you're on the fence about Blueland, just buy their refills and dilute it in your own bottles :) more sustainable to use what you already have, plus its cheaper >< just make sure you clean out old chemicals really well first. I ordered them and they also ship in a padded envelope that's filled with paper shreds instead of a standard padded envelope. (Shipping was also super cheap, a couple dollars iirc?) For foaming hand soap, look up Dr Bronner's "DIY"s, it's a 1:4 dilution with water. You can also use Kirk's bar castile soap, but that takes a bit more work but no plastic bottle

We are slowly transitioning to zero waste brands and will be doing dish washer and laundry next so thanks for covering Dropps!

Thank you for reviewing these products!!! I’ve been curious about how good and effective these are. I’m excited to try the laundry detergent!! Thank you for all you do!

I really want to get the blue land soap! My mom is a big Mrs. Meyers foam soap fan but I’m hoping to convert her to something more sustainable. Plus the glass bottle is super cute!

I have found to disinfect & clean that powdered tied, bleach, and water do the job. Not sure how sustainable that is since bleach comes in a plastic bottle but the powdered tied comes in a box. You also use very little of each so it lasts a very long time.

As a DIY all-surface cleaner, I use just water and dish soap (bought in bulk/refill) mixed in a spray bottle. It works great! I also tried the Meyers lemon dish soap months ago (before I knew they weren't the greatest company) and I dislike it - I cannot stand the smell of it!

All of their scents smell like melted plastic to me.

Great video; super helpful! I feel very lucky to have a family-owned, mostly vegetarian little store close to where I live that has A TON of products that you can buy in bulk. I mean - almost everything you can think of (soap, baking soda, grains, flours, clay, laundry detergent, kombucha, nut butters, shampoo, conditioner - seriously, HEAVEN!). I never know what all this stuff is shipped in to the store (what size of container or what it is made of etc). In my case I think it’s better to shop there instead of ordering online. What do you think? Yes, I know I’m super lucky to have a store like that close by. I love this place and I wish everyone had an option like that.

Dr. Bronner makes bar soap. If your store carries it, it'd be by the body wash. I use the baby soap bar to wash my dishes and it works great. I can usually get them for $4 or less and one bar lasts me a full month (we do have a dishwasher and also use dropps). Oh and its wrapped in paper only so you can compost the paper!

this is my first video from you that im watching and OMG this is exactly the kind of content I have been looking for, can't wait to binge your videos and keep learning how to become more eco friendly

The truearth strips seem like they'd be great for anyone who uses a shared laundry space (laundromat, or dorm/apartment laundry room). It's a lot lighter to haul with you and you don't have to worry about it popping like a pod.

So much better than weird homemade cleaners with essential oils!

[@deuteragonist1078]

thanks so much for this video! i've been watching your channel for a couple of years now and making my own slow changes. now i'm in charge of working to "greenify" a small bed and breakfast, and i needed to find some cleaning alternatives that aren't DIYs but are still sustainable. this was super helpful!

[@vaidehideo3340]

How about Dr. Bronner's for using for all - Laundry, detergent, cleaning ?

[@wiltedspinachcat3472]

i use dropps for laundry and dishwasher detergent (for a couple months now) and i am sooo impressed! amazing company and an amazing product!

[@DimaRakesah]

I have been planning to buy Blueland's stuff! So glad you have this video so I could get a better idea of how well they will work.

Have you tried Force of Nature? My workplace has recently started using it at the daycare. I really like it, the only con is it kind of has a sticky residue after setting for 10 min but you can wipe it off. It less ingredients; only 3 ingredients: water, salt, and vinegar. It's also an environmentally friendly company. Reusable bottle, recyclable capsules, multipurpose, and formula lasts for 2 weeks.

So excited I just got my first cleancult order! Thank you for this video!

[@anahidkassabian4471]

Love this vid! More please 😄 And since I live in the UK now, I’m going to ask Immy if she’ll do one. I’m a big fan of hers as well-I count on you both to help me think of things I can do next to improve my effects on the planet.
