About You
The Ultimate Guide to Spring Cleaning - Naturally!

Your house is your castle, so you should definitely treat it with the tender, love and care that it deserves! No one wants to live in a manky, dusty and down right grimy house!

The gorgeous spring weather has already arrived, so what better way to kick the season off with than a good ol’ fashioned spring clean?
 
We’ve come with the ultimate guide to spring cleaning your house – we’ve picked products for everything from the bathroom to the kitchen sink, to help get your home gorgeously spotless. And because we’re big fans of keeping it natural and eco-friendly, all our products are sprung in that similar vein!
 
Laundry
Grab all your dirty clothes, towels, and even duvet covers and blankets, and separate your dirty laundry in to piles. Whites, colours, towels, blankets, delicates etc… For towels and everyday clothes we love Ecostore’s Laundry Powder – made from totally natural ingredients that are all non-toxic and gentle on the skin, yet totally ruthless on dirt and grime. To keep your whites sparkling white you can’t go past Ecostore’s Oxy Whitener (it’s a secret weapon when it comes to keeping things whiter than white!). If you’ve got a bathtub, pop all your whites into the tub and let them soak for a few hours.
 
Bathroom
This is the time to give your bathroom a thorough clean, from the hand basin to the toilet, the shower and even the floors! When it comes to bathroom cleaners we love multi purpose products that you can use on every surface. Try Green Works Natural Bathroom Cleaner, with plant and mineral-based ingredients that literally cut their way through soap scum, hard water and rust leaving your bathroom counters, sinks, tub tiles and even shower door, all naturally spotless. Don’t think that your toilet needs to be bombed with extreme chemicals either – try eCover’s Toilet Cleaner. This naturally powerful product will freshen and clean your toilet with ease.
 
Make sure your bathroom is filled with fabulous natural skincare goodies that are gentle and super effective on your skin. We love Aveeno for their luxe yet totally affordable oatmeal formulations, (without any harsh and irritating chemicals). Lather up with the Aveeno Daily 
Moisturising Body Wash in the shower to leave your skin soft and clean, and then give yourself a full body massage with the Daily Moisturiser for an extra special treat! 
 
Kitchen
This is where you’ll really need to pull your sleeves up! Make life easy and use quality, multipurpose cleaning products. The Enjo Kitchen Glove is the ultimate in cleaning goodies; use this baby to remove dirt and grime from all kitchen surfaces, stove tops, range hoods, work benches – the lot!

Windows
Keep your house looking spick and span from the inside out with gloriously shiny windows. It’s easy to forget how much a difference clean windows makes to a house, so stop putting it off and get out there. Spray the windows with Green Works Natural Glass Cleaner (great for a streak-free finish), grab some old newspaper and get those arms pumping!

Floors
When it comes to cleaning your floors, Green Works Natural Dilutable Cleaner is perfect for mopping up germs and grease from non-wooden floors. Apply just a little to a bucket of warm water, and you’re good to go!
