Review: “I was feeling bad using liquid detergent in plastic bottles til I found this product on Amazon. It cleans perfect and I can’t believe that one thin strip is enough for a full load 😮 I love it, this product makes me happy and helps me to protect our Earth.” – Gunes
Review: “This stuff definitely works. Our water is hard here in the Hill Country of Texas so there’s always calcium spots left on everything. I’ve tried different cleaner solutions with no luck. Decided to use this product with a good ol sponge with some elbow grease and it removed the majority of the spots. It cleaned all the residue on the sides of the tub as well. Rinsed the tub a few times and voila! Very pleased!” – Katelyn W.
Review: “Typically I purchase Native products directly from their website because they are cheaper that way but our order got lost in the mail and we were completely out so I appreciated that Amazon carried the Native deodorant. I ordered it in a jam and it arrived in a few hours. I choose this product for its natural ingredients and it is reasonably effective although sometimes requires reapplication which I don’t mind. I would rather re-apply than be covered with toxins.” – Erika Moody
Review: “This toilet paper may not be as soft as other less environmentally friendly options, but I never worry about my finger going through it either. It feels thin but is harder to tear through than thicker regular toilet paper. I especially like it for camping where its extra strength is really beneficial. Overall I will continue to buy.” – Jake
Review: “Highly recommend these! Super natural way to keep your space fresh and odor free. I have 2 dogs and a cat, along with an air purifier. I also have allergies. And you can tell the difference these make to get the odors and extra moisture out of the air. I even put one in my car because I have the dogs in there too. I just put it out in the sun for an hour or two once a month to reset and dry out. I have also used another brand before and this one is very aesthetically nice and you can hang it anywhere.” – Anna Cardoso
Review: “Been using it for a couple of weeks now and I love it. Not as nasty tasting as other baking soda brands I’ve tried. Will be buying more for sure!” – dema
Review: “I was skeptical, but wow does this really work well. Even if it just starts itching and you don’t catch right away, still works. Mosquitoes love me so I really need this. Highly recommend it.” – Es23728

Review: “They really stick. Will be buying these again. SInce finding out most brand name bandages are treated with chemicals that go directly into your bloodstream, I looked for a good alternative. Found it!” – Sea
Review: “I had been using Clean Cult dish soap and I love it. It gets my pots and pans clean. I saw the refills of this same dish soap that comes in a carton and decided to order it. The carton indicates that it uses 90% less plastic than other alternatives. Even better! You can just use any soap dispenser but in this case I refilled it with the original soap dispenser that I first ordered when I discovered this brand. I do not like a strong soap scent and this dish soap does not bother me as sometimes smelly soap fragrance can be overpowering and off putting but this isn’t the case here.” – S
Review: “These pee pads are beautiful and of excellent quality. I bought a few in different colors. So much better than disposable pee pads. They wash and dry well too. Really, no complaints.” – Mleon

Review: “It’s just simply amazing. What more can I say? I have a multi pet household so hair always accumulates like crazy and I’m guilty of washing my bedding way too much to try to remove let hair from it and it still sticks even fresh out of the drier. This thing on the other hands, removes it in seconds. It is so easy to use. ” – Camiron
Review: “My wife loves these dishwasher pods. They work great, leave no residue, and also don’t leave the dishes covered in soap residue. They don’t have a very overwhelming smell, which I like because other soap brands seem to want to be air fresheners as well. Not only will we likely buy these again, but these are the only ones we will be buying. 10/10 would, and do, recommend.” – John Bevins
Review: “I’ve been wanting a set of coconut smoothie bowls for awhile and I’m so glad I finally got them! These are beautiful and I love that they are environmentally friendly!” – Marcia
Review: “The pump actually works, as does the sprayer and the flip top is leak proof. No gimmicks here, these are all fully functional and worth every dime. Highly recommend!” – Mary W
