- Hi guys, welcome back to my channel.
In today's video, I'm going to be sharing with you
my favorite tried, and tested cleaning products.
I have tried a lot in the past, but these ones
I'm going to show you today are like the best of the best.
So I really hope you enjoy this video.
And a few things before I start,
my hair is like this because
I haven't washed it in three days.
I have just had my eyebrows tinted,
so they are very like, dark and angry.
And most importantly, I just hit 250 thousand subscribers.
So I wanted to start out this video with just saying,
a massive, massive, thank you.
From the bottom of my heart,
if you've ever watched my videos and subscribed,
thank you so much.
Honestly.
The last four years has been completely life changing,
and it's all because of you!
So yeah, thank, thank, thank you.
I can't say too much because I get quite emotional
but yeah, it's been amazing and I looked on my
analytics of my channel the other day,
and only 27% of my viewers have subscribed.
So there's still loads of potential for growth.
So if any of you guys watch me on the regular,
and you feel like hitting that little red button
down below, then I would absolutely love that.
And yeah, anyway!
Let's get into it.
I'm gonna start out with a cleaner you've probably seen
in the background of all of my videos
where I'm just talking in my kitchen.
And that is my Method Cleaner,
oh by the way nothing in this video is sponsored.
These are all just completely what I buy.
So yes, I wish Method would sponsor me because they should.
Because I use them all the time.
I really, really love them.
I discovered them because my friend mentioned it to me
once I had a child, she said "You know it's a non-toxic
"cleaner, so you can use it on the high-chair and table,
"and everything and not have to worry too much
"about chemicals and everything."
It's just a really nice brand.
I use the two surface sprays.
These are my favorite scents.
This one is Pink Gapefruit, this one is Wild Rhubarb.
But then I also use the bathroom cleaner as well.
This is in Mint, and I really like that.
And it disinfects.
It kills 99.9% of bacteria, but all of the ingredients
in it are bio-degradable.
All of the packaging and ingredients in these cleaners,
is bio-degradable.
It's a very eco-company.
They're a company that is part of the B Corp as well,
which means they do things very ethically.
They're just great brand and I really, really love them.
I also have the daily shower spray,
that I use in the shower.
I must admit that it's not daily,
but that's what I clean the shower with.
And yeah, I just love them.
I love the way it smells, I love how it cleans.
You can use it on anything like
wood, surface, gloss, windows.
You could literally use it as your one main cleaner,
but I just tend to use it on all of our surfaces,
and on our kitchen.
And on the floor, or anywhere else the kids get messy.
So I really, really rate Method Cleaner,
their £3 bottle, so it is a bit pricier
because you could easily get a surface spray
that was a pound.
But as I said, the ingredients, and sometimes they do,
what's it called like they do deals.
So whenever it's like £1.50 or £2
I will buy five of these because
I know I'm just gonna keep using it.
So in our garage, I have them all lined up,
and I'm totally stocked.
So yes!
Method is my number one!
Next up I'm going to show you what I use on windows,
mirrors, and our gloss kitchen.
Our gloss kitchen is like the bane of my life.
There are finger prints all over it all the time,
so much so that I want to change my kitchen,
but these little E-cloths are incredible.
They are eco in that you only need to use water with them,
and they really do polish glossy surfaces very well,
you can also use it on windows and mirrors as well.
I must admit, I do love a bit of Windowlene
when it comes to mirrors and our windows,
but the E-cloth works really, really well
on glossy surfaces.
I'll get one out and show you.
It's literally this little thin, textured cloth.
I don't really know how it works but it is incredible.
And I really do rate it.
All you have to do, as I said, is just add water,
and then you can go across your surfaces.
And again there's no chemicals.
I really, really like them.
I also like the Wash & Wipe E-cloths.
I got some new ones so you would see them all nice and clean
and not disgusting like my ones.
But again you can just can add water
and use them across your surfaces.
It says as well, it kills 99% of bacteria,
which I don't really know how it does that
if you're only using water.
But, they're really good cloths and I like using them.
Next up I have some cleaning wipes
that I wanted to show you.
If you have small children, then you will probably know,
that wipes are so easy to reach for,
and so great for cleaning up things like the mess
after dinner under the high-chair.
These are just perfect.
And the Ecover ones are bio-degradable,
so I've got them because lots of wipes aren't.
So if you can buy bio-degradable ones,
obviously that's better.
And this scent is Pomegranate and Lime
so it is really very nice.
I also have another product from Ecover
that I've only recently just discovered.
We went to Center Parcs for a weekend
and they had this Washing-up liquid in the villa,
and it made me think because I only ever buy the
washing-up liquid that's on special, normally.
But the Ecover one smells really good, this one
is Pomegranate and Fig so it smells like a
Jo Malone scent or something like that.
But it's also made completely made out of plant-based,
and mineral materials, or ingredients.
And yeah, I just really like it.
So I use this, and then I bought a new one to show you,
but I use this like, dishmatic thing,
in my cleaning videos.
You've probably seen this.
You just fill up the handle, it just opens up,
you fill it up and then it's really easy
to wash plates, or pots and pans.
Things like that, so I use these two together.
And then I also just bought the Ecover Floor Cleaner.
Again I normally buy whatever is on special,
like I don't normally think about it very much,
but I'm just trying to be more mindful.
I just put a tiny-bit of this into my spray mop,
and then add loads of water.
So I've got that.
I'm not trying to claim to be some Eco-Warrior,
There are chemicals that I am about to show you,
but I am trying to be more mindful, so I like those.
The next product I love is Zoflora.
If you live in the U.K. you may know about Zoflora.
It is a very concentrated disinfectant,
so you can pick it up in Poundland, it is super cheap.
And it is very concentrated.
My two favorite scents are the Pink Grapefruit,
and then I also have Fresh Linen,
or it's called Linen Fresh, I have no idea why.
Yeah but it's very concentrated so what I like to do is
clean out my sink at the end of the day.
Put a capful down the drain, and it makes our kitchen
smell really nice when you come down in the morning,
and it disinfects things.
You can mix this with a big bowl of water
and then you can use that to clean everything.
You can use it in your toilet, or recently,
I cleaned out the inside of my Dyson Hoover with
some of this stuff and now when I use it it's like
smells so good.
So yeah, it kills 99.9% of bacteria and viruses.
So yeah I really like it and it's super cheap, and yeah.
I just think it's amazing.
And another favorite from Poundland are Magic Erasers.
You get a box like this for a pound.
You get two Magic Erasers in it,
and they're just brilliant.
I discovered these, because my boys ran loads
of cars on our bath.
And there were marks, and colored marks on it
that I just couldn't get off.
So I thought I would try one of these Magic Erasers.
God knows what they're made of but they honestly
did eraser all of the marks.
These are also create great on the skirting boards,
these are also great for marks on my shoes.
I might do a hack video,
solely on what the Magic Eraser can do.
It's just really really good.
It's super cheap.
It removes stains without detergent.
So yeah I really, really like them.
They're definitely worth a try.
Then, I do buy bleach.
I felt like not including this, but I do use bleach.
I buy it for 50 p in Sainsbury's, or a pound in Poundland.
And I'll use these, not everyday, or not all the time,
but I use it in the toilets obviously.
Especially if there is a tummy bug or a sickness bug,
which my kids are bringing home all the time.
I do use bleach.
If you have any bleach alternatives,
I would love to know them.
But this cleans the toilet really, really well.
I also have two other cleaners that I wanted to show you,
but they are very potent.
But this is the only thing that I found that cleans
black mold off of our shower so well.
So no matter how much we clean it,
we even have new bathrooms,
sometimes we get black mold in the corners of our shower.
And I find if you spray this on, leave for five, ten minutes
then wash it off it really does help.
But I would say it's a very potent smell,
it can make you feel a bit light headed.
I only use it when I have to.
That's why this bottle is like dusty,
I've had it for so long.
And then, the Cillit Bang Limescale & Shine
is also very good like if we have any
limescale, in the bathroom on our stainless steel,
it really, really does work very well.
But again I know they are quite potent and strong
when it comes to chemicals.
And then, I also wanted to show you the Cif.
Cif works so well on the bath.
I don't use it again, I don't use it
every single week when I clean the bath.
But if I ever wanna give it a really good scrub,
or give our porcelain sinks a really good clean,
I don't think you can beat Cif.
It just works so well with a scrubbing brush.
So I really really rate this when it comes to bathrooms.
And then I thought I would share with you
what I use for the laundry.
I know I've shown this in my laundry hacks video,
but if you've missed that,
I will link it down below,
if you've missed that I thought I would show you anyway.
So, I always say this but I'm not very brand loyal
when it comes to detergent.
I tend to buy whatever is on offer, so I've got
the Persil non-bio at the moment.
And this is like the liquid.
I do sometimes like that because if I wanna just wash
Jackson's blanket I just just put a tiny bit in,
or if I want to wash a load of it, I can just pour more in.
So I do like having that freedom,
rather than having the tablets.
So this is the Persil non-bio
which is better for your machine,
it's better for our children's skin,
it's better for our skin, so that's why I always buy that.
Then I really love the Unstopables.
So these are like little pellets
that you put into your washing machine
and it makes the things in the washing machine,
and the machine, smell really, really good.
These are my two favorite scents.
This one is Spring, and I've got it in a huge bottle.
And I've also got Lavish, this one's called,
which is a really nice smell.
I don't use this every single wash.
I tend to only use this when I'm washing the sheets,
or the towels, or if we ever,
if I strip off all of the cushion covers,
and then wash them,
I'll put quite of a few of these in and then I'll find,
oh sorry it just got really bright in here,
then I'll find that the couch will just smell
really good for quite a few weeks.
So I really love them.
It makes everything smell, really really nice.
I also really like using the Colour Catchers.
This kind of attracts all of the colours onto this little
sheet and then it stops your clothes from greying.
And I think they're really effective.
It's also quite satisfying when you pull out
the little sheet from a coloured wash,
and sometimes it's like really really dark,
you think well all of that could've been
on the clothes themselves.
I think it's quite satisfying it's probably in my head,
but I really, really like it.
And then when it comes to stain removal,
I really rate Vanish.
I am always a bit like,
(inhales)
it's quite expensive.
Sometimes it's £6, sometimes it's £8,
and I do use it a lot because my kids come home
with so many stains.
Like sometimes I pick them up from school,
and I look at them an I think,
how did you even get a grass stain on your back collar,
or whatever it is.
But I tend to put a big scoop of this
in most of our colour loads.
So I get this Vanish Oxi Action, or Vanish Gold,
whichever one is on special.
So I really, really rate it.
It does really help with stains.
I also have the Vanish Gold little gel.
So this is really easy to squeeze and rub onto a stain.
I've got that, and I've even got my little
Vanish Stain Bar.
So this is really good to take with you on Holiday.
I should've put it in my packing hacks video,
but it's great because our baby is still so messy
when it comes to ice cream or eating, it gets everywhere.
So I can immediately take it off of him,
rub this bar on it, and then get the stain out
straight away if we're out and about.
Or I could use it at home as well.
But yeah, I just really like the Vanish Bars as well.
And then the only other thing I was going to mention,
is when it comes to dishwasher tablets,
we tend to buy whatever is like the biggest,
works out the best tablets in Costco.
At the moment we've got a big thing
of the Finish Tablets, and they work fine.
And then every few months, I will run one of these
throughout our dishwasher.
It is just a dishwasher cleaner,
but I think it really, really does help
to clean out our machine.
And so I like using them as well.
Sorry the sun is going like, whoa really bright.
But yeah that was just a quick video
to talk about my favorite cleaning products.
I would love for you guys to comment below
what yours are, and any other eco-alternatives.
I'm sure, you guys always have the best tips.
But yes, thank you so much for watching.
I hope you enjoyed this video,
and I will see you in my next one.
Bye guys!
