*C/o Better Life
Moving house is no walk in the park. There are the necessary tasks of cleaning, staging, showings, negotiations, more cleaning, and finally, packing. Then you get to do much if it again when you find another house to buy. Spring cleaning takes on a whole new meaning when it involves making a house show ready. And then if you find another house, cleaning to your specifications to make it just right for your family can take some thought and effort. How does an earth and health conscious family tackle these tasks conveniently, while still remaining as true as possible to their standards?
An awesome set to get the job done is the Shark Kit™ by Better Life. Better Life focuses on cleaning products that are safer for our kids, pets, and planet, while also doing what they should – CLEAN! The Shark kit was featured on Shark Tank and each product was presented and demonstrated on national t.v. This kit provides everything a busy family needs to keep up with cleaning demands while avoiding toxic ingredients.
KIT INCLUDES:
- Dish It Out- Clary Sage & Citrus – 22oz
- Simply Floored – 32oz
- What-EVER! all purpose cleaner – Clary Sage & Citrus – 32oz
- Even The Kitchen Sink -16oz
- General purpose microfiber cloth
Dish It Out
Dish It Out is a sulfate free dish washing liquid that can fight tough grease while not over drying your skin. The kit includes a 22ox bottle scented with essential oils of clary sage and citrus. A $7.99 value.
Dish It Out Ingredients: Purified water, potassium cocoate, lauryl glucoside, caprylyl/capryl glucoside, decyl glucoside, glycerin, disodium coco-glucoside citrate, aloe barbadensis leaf extract, tocopherol, citrus limon peel extract, salvia sclarea extract, and citrus aurantium dulcis peel extract
Simply Floored
Simply Floored is a no rinse floor cleaner that can be used on any sealed floor. It works fabulously on my hardwood floors. In fact, this 32oz bottle can go a long way. While you can use it at full concentration on your floor, I like to dilute it in a spray bottle and spritz my floors before using my steam mop on them. It leaves them gleaming, and is perfectly safe for our toddlers and cats. A value of $7.99.
Simply Floored Ingredients: Purified water, lauryl glucoside, decyl glucoside, glycerin, mentha piperita leaf extract, citrus limon peel extract, mentha viridis extract, citrus aurantium dulcis peel extract, citrus grandis fruit extract, elettaria cardamomum seed extract, citrus aurantifolia peel extract, citrus aurantium bergamia fruit extract, citrus tangerina extract, citrus nobilis peel extract, and methylisothiazolinone
What-EVER
What-EVER is an all purpose cleaner meant for whatever! It can be used on any non-porous surface, although Better Life mentions even using it on laundry stains. I have not tried it on a cloth diaper since I don’t worry about stains, but I might have to give it try as an experiment and report back. What-EVER can be used in your bathroom, on wood, glass, Formica, and even for marks on your wall. It works great for removing those grimy finger prints all over my white door frames. It comes in a 32oz spray bottle so I can even use it to give my washing machine drum and quick wipe down after a tube of lip balm went through a hot wash.(Ick!) This cleaner is nice for use in a playroom for spraying down large toys and surfaces. A value of $7.99.
What-EVER Ingredients: Purified water, caprylyl/capryl glucoside, decyl glucoside, lauryl glucoside, disodium cocoyl glutamate, quillaja saponaria bark extract, citrus limon peel extract, salvia sclarea extract, citrus aurantium dulcis peel extract, and methylisothiazolinone
Even The Kitchen Sink
Even the Kitchen Sink is an all-purpose scrubber that harnesses the scrubbing power of calcium carbonate while not scratching your surfaces. It is perfect for tile, grout, toilets, and sinks. My favorite uses are for the hard water build up in our toilet bowl and the stains or scum in our porcelain kitchen sink. If you have pets, this stuff is excellent at cleaning up dried cat vomit.
Even the Kitchen Sink Ingredients: Purified water, calcium carbonate, decyl glucoside, potassium cocoate, cetyl alcohol, cocos nucifera oil, cetearyl alcohol, xanthan gum, and methylisothiazolinone
The Shark Kit also comes with a handy microfiber cleaning cloth. Microfiber is great at polishing up surfaces like porcelain and even your car. It is highly absorbent and is a great drying cloth. I recommend using one to wipe down your tile after showering if your have hard water.
I am glad the Shark Tank experience seems to have gone well for Better Life, since some other businesses I like had trouble on the show. Presentation is great, but how awesome is it that the products work too? Simply Floored really does get those wood floors shining. Even the Kitchen Sink wipes up soap scum like it is water. What-EVER actually gets stains out of the rug without bleaching the colors. Even EWG gives Better Life products a decent rating, which is not very common in today’s world of green washing.
The shark kit really delivered for me as far as getting our house show ready. Now that we have a buyer, I just need to find our new home so we can have a Better Life in more ways than one.
