Product Review ~Ecostore

Polyquaternium-6, Pentasodium Pentetate, Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose.  These are three of the ingredients found inside our normal bar of Irish Spring soap.  Sounds like some harsh chemicals!



Over the last couple of months, I have been testing two products from the Ecostore.  One of these products is wonderful bar of Manuka, Honey & Kelp body soap.  I was so excited to do a review for ecostore.  They have high quality, all natural, organic products that are free from these chemicals that we can't even pronounce.

Ecostore's Manuka, Honey & Kelp soap, is a small bar of soap, but it really lasts a while. I was surprised to see how long it has lasted.  It has a mild smell, and lathers up nicely.  The only thing that I was disappointed about, was that it still dried out my face.  Not as bad as the brand name chemical infused bars of soap though.  A little lotion after ward fixed that.  The best part of Ecostore's  Manuka, Honey & Kelp body soap, was the list of ingredients.  I could comprehend what they were.

Not too bad!

The second product I have been reviewing, is the ecostore's Auto Dishwasher Powder. I was very excited about this one.  As a mother of 4, I do an average 3 loads of dishes a day.  I was able to do the dishes with the peace of mind knowing that I am not cleaning the dishes that my family eats off, with harsh chemicals.   The container that the dishwasher detergent came in was very easy to use.  It cleaned the dishes just as good as the gel pacs that I usually use. The only complaint that my family had, was the f

act that sometimes the dishes had a soapy after taste.  At least it's all natural though! I'd be more concerned if they were getting an after taste after I have used the main stream brands of dish washing detergent.

My overall experience with the ecostore products was excellent!  The price of course is a bit higher than the regular soaps and detergents that you can buy from Wal-Mart, but if you are a single person or small family and can afford it, it would be worth it.  For the large family, it's not very economical.

I have enjoyed doing this product review!  Thank you Ecostore for allowing me to test your products.
