Your Guide to a Naturally Clean Home This Spring
There’s something about spring that makes us want to throw open the windows, clear out the clutter, and give our homes a proper reset. It’s the season of fresh starts, and it’s the perfect time to rethink what’s in the products we use to get that clean.
Conventional cleaners often rely on synthetic chemicals that linger in the air long after you’ve finished cleaning and wash straight into our waterways once they go down the drain. The good news is you don’t have to choose between a genuinely clean home and one that’s kind to your health and the environment. Naturally derived, biodegradable formulas can do the job just as well, without the trade-off.
Why It’s Worth the Swap
Spring cleaning usually means a lot of cleaning all at once, laundry piles, kitchen deep-cleans, wiping down surfaces that have been neglected all winter. That’s a lot of products going onto your skin, into your air, and down your drains in a short space of time. Choosing plant-based, biodegradable options means all that cleaning does a little less harm, no synthetic fragrances, no harsh chemical residue, and nothing left behind that shouldn’t be.
A Few Ideas to Get You Started
If you’re building out your own natural cleaning routine this spring, here are a few categories worth focusing on:
Laundry – With bedding, linens and winter layers all needing a wash, a plant-based laundry liquid or powder is an easy first swap that makes a noticeable difference wash after wash. Try Ecostore Laundry Liquid Eucalyptus 1L or Ecostore Laundry Powder Lemon 1kg.
Everyday wipes – For quick surface wipe-downs while you declutter room by room, biodegradable wipes such as Saba Organic Bamboo Wipes Multi Purpose Lemon Blast 120 Pack are a simple way to cut down on the waste that comes with disposable cleaning products.
Kitchen cleaning – The kitchen tends to cop the most mess of any room, so a naturally powerful multi-purpose cleaner helps cut through everyday grease without synthetic nasties. The Koala Eco Natural Multi-Purpose Kitchen Cleaner Lemon Myrtle & Mandarin 500ml is a good example.
Dishwasher care – Even appliances benefit from a spring refresh. A vegan, eco-friendly dishwasher powder like Kin Kin Naturals Eco Dishwasher Powder Lime & Lemon Myrtle 1.1kg can help clear built-up residue and keep things running clean.
