Sun & Earth Review & Giveaway





Its easy to find products that claim to be natural. But most of the time they either cost so much money that the average person can't afford them or they just don't clean that well.  Well, Sun & Earth cleaning products have managed to create an amazing line of cleaning products that get results, are reasonably priced, and are still safe, natural, and  cruelty free.


Sun & Earth was generous enough to send me a nice selection of their products to try out. I received them a few weeks ago, and have been using them regularly. I have to say, I am very happy with the results. All the products have a pleasant citrus scent. Its a nice change from the chemical smell most cleaning products have. The first thing  I tried was the All Purpose Cleaner. I used it after my husband and daughter had made pasta with red sauce for dinner. The sauce had splashed all over everything and gotten hard and crusty. The cleaner had no trouble breaking it up and making things nice and sparkly again.






Next was the laundry detergent.   With a new baby in the house, I have to use a detergent that is gentle enough for her newborn skin. The leading baby detgergent is pretty expensive and if I do buy it, I have to use it just for the baby's clothes. But with Sun & Earth, a 50oz bottle is only $6.59.  So I can use the same detergent for everyone but still know its safe for the baby. I also had a small sample of the fabric softenener and it left the clothes soft and static free.




Then there is the dishwaher detergent.  This was the one I had the most doubts about. There have only been a few brands that cleaned dishes up to my level of expectation, and none of them were nautral. But Sun & Earth stood up to this difficult test. My dishes came out of the dishwasher not only clean but spot free.


Now that you know how great this products work, I'm sure you would like to try them out for yourself.  You can always order online, or check for a retailer near you.  But one lucky reader will get to try out these great products for free. Sun & Earth has agreed to send one winner a selection  of their products (companies choice).
