HOMEMADE ALL PURPOSE CLEANER RECIPE

BY: ANJA LAVIGNE

One of my absolute favourite all natural, homemade, all purpose cleaners that I use daily in my home, is made up of only three ingredients: water, dish soap and Thieves essential oil. This oil is a blend of herbs and spices, including clove, lemon, cinnamon, eucalyptus and rosemary. Thieves oil is very beneficial in many ways, such as boosting immune function, fighting infections, energizing, uplighting and most importantly, it has an antimicrobial activity.

Recipe: All Purpose Cleaner 2 cups of water 10 drops of Thieves -You can make it yourself (there are recipes online for how to make it) or buy it 1 teaspoons of dish soap - I use Nature Clean dish liquids to beat out grease and grime without the use of harsh or irritating chemicals, and it’ s made of 98.5% natural ingredients from plants and minerals.

Spray bottle - using glass is non-toxic, free from potentially harmful chemicals and generally not associated with a negative impact to your health. It is less porous than plastic. It also has a high resistance to mixing into your product even when contained for long periods of time.

Pour the mixture into a glass spray bottle (it’ s advised to stick to glass and avoid plastic as much as possible), give it a couple of shakes and use pretty much anywhere in your home. This spray has been great for cleaning counters, refrigerators, wood, tile, toilets, stove tops and has even been helpful in removing stains and pen marks. However, avoid using this mixture on glass, mirrors and screens.
