Are Store-Bought Products Really Eco-Friendly?

There are many store-bought products that claim to be eco-friendly. However, are these products really as eco-friendly as they claim to be?

Take a closer look at store-bought products and see if they are really as eco-friendly as they claim to be.

Some manufacturers market their products as environmentally sound even though they're not actually eco-friendly.

You can use household products like white vinegar, baking soda, and essential oils to make home recipes that would be very effective in cleaning your home.

What if you need another cleaner? Throw your support behind companies that list each and every ingredient in their product.

Some labels that you should avoid: Corrosive, chlorine bleach, ammonia, phosphates, and petroleum products.

It takes a little time to read labels but the time is worth it. The only other option would be to make your own.
