Just start small, and before you know it you'll be green too! Just do it!

Dark Green

Ultra-thin Pads with Wings

I have changed all my cosmetics, lotions, shampoos etc. to green or organic and have also gone totally green in my cleaning. My favorite cleaner is vinegar mixed with a little castile soap and a few drops of essential oil. It works just as good as anything else. I love the Seventh Generation fabric softener, dish soap, automatic dish powder, and window cleaner. Also a big turning point for me was switching from Always pads to Seventh Generation pads. The Seventh Generation are so much more comfortable, no plastic to make you feel sweaty and gross. And they protect every bit as well as the other brand, plus I feel so much better knowing that they are better for me and the environment. I am an obsessive recycler and reuse everything I can before I have to throw it out. I choose recycled products over non-recycled when given the choice and never, never use pesticides or synthetic pesticides in or around my home. I have gotten my parents to start recycling and my friend to switch to greener cosmetics. I am hoping someday that going green isn't just a fad, but the norm and people will quit looking at me like I'm crazy for doing what is right!
