Common Swaps for More Eco-Friendly Products

The transition from non-eco-friendly products to eco-friendly products can be a smooth process if you know some of the common swaps. These common swaps are ideal because they are safer, have fewer chemicals, and have additional benefits that put harsher chemical products to shame. Honestly, you’ll wonder why you hadn’t made the swap sooner. 

When it comes to harsher chemical products, there are options out there that have fewer chemicals but results that are just as great, if not better! 

As you know, we love our clean, green chemicals and the variety of uses they offer, including cleaning solutions! Here are some options and considerations for ingredients you can use to be a bit more eco-friendly, including options on a smaller scale as well. 

What to look for in Eco-Friendly Products? 

• Fewer chemicals. 
• Reusables or packaging that offers less waste. 
• Chemicals and additional ingredients that make sense! 
• Research the supplier or distributor. 
• Do your research on the ingredients. 
• Inquiry! Never feel afraid to ask if you are still unsure. 
• Weigh the risk of using one chemical over another.
