The importance of plant-based laundry detergent

September 27, 2018

Thank you Tide purclean for sponsoring this post. The content and opinions expressed here are my own.

If you have been a reader for a while, then you know by now that I am a big advocate for natural and plant-based products. I became a label reader 4 years ago, and it took me almost that long to completely convert our family to all plant-based products. I have spent years researching artificial chemicals that are added to our health, beauty and cleaning products. And it has been eye-opening; which is why I am excited to share my latest discovery of Tide purclean, a plant-based laundry detergent.

Our skin touches our clothing all day, every day. So anything that our clothes are washed in, our skin is in constant contact with.  This is why it was important to our family to switch to Tide purclean.

When I found out Tide created a plant-based laundry detergent, I was intrigued.  Then when I read the ingredients on the label, I was ecstatic!  No SLS (or any of it’s cousins), no phosphates, no NPE (if you don’t know what those are, I highly recommend you look them up and read a few articles about these toxins.).  

Tide purclean is a gentle, plant-based formula, that cleans as well as original Tide, only with the power of plants.  It is certified by the USDA BioPreferred program, and is produced at a facility that uses 100% renewable wind electricity.  The bottle is also 100% recyclable.    

Tide purclean is free of dyes, chlorine, phosphates, ethanolamine and optical brighteners.  There are two options: unscented and honey lavender.

Tide purclean is a gentle formula that is great for sensitive skin.  My daughter has always had very sensitive skin (she has keratosis pilaris, so any additional irritants make it flare up even worse), and I feel comfortable using Tide purclean to wash her clothes.  

Now through December 2nd, you can get a $3 off coupon at Safeway stores in the Seattle and Bellevue area.  

I encourage you to take a look at your laundry detergent.  Read the label, and look for ingredients like I mentioned above.  If you see them on the label (and you most likely will), toss it and replace it with Tide purclean.  You’re making one step in the right direction for you and your family’s health.  

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Tide. The opinions and text are all mine.

    Ohhhh I need to look into this! We use a free and clear detergent, which I know still has some icky stuff in it, so I wonder how this compares? Me and Otto have the most SENSITIVE skin, and with two babies on the way I’d love to get an even “cleaner” laundry detergent!

    We’ll have to check it out! Honey lavender sounds like a delightful scent, and I’m all for a plant-based detergent that still gets clothes clean and fresh!

  • A few weeks ago my girl worked out with me and it was amazing. 💪🏼 She wanted to lift and learn the machines and we had the best time. I love that she enjoys exercise. ❤️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
On another note, we leave Palm Springs for Seattle on Saturday and I am so looking forward to spending time with friends and family this holiday season. 😍 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Do you travel for the holidays? 🎄
  • {#ad} Finding ways to stay fit in the road has been one of my missions the last 6 months. Add in kids constantly needing your attention and my workouts sometimes get cut short. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
One of my new favorite things to use is Jazzercise’s On Demand program! 😍 All the conveniences of fun Jazzercise classes wherever you want to be! Plus they have a variety of class durations you accommodate your busy schedule. 🙌🏻 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

  • Not gonna lie, Joshua Tree National Park was pretty damn awesome. Dry AF, but those trees are 😍.
  • Typical morning with these three. 🥰 Mornings are my absolute favorite time with them. My second favorite is bedtime. #justkiddingsortof ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Our mornings are much slower now that we homeschool. It’s not at all easy. It’s actually harder than I imagined it would be. But I love that we can go at our own pace, take breaks during the day for adventures, and use all sorts of awesome tools for learning. We can change things when we want and I can teach to my child’s likes and abilities. I always thought I would send them back to school when our travels are over, but now I’m not so sure. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Have you ever considered homeschooling, or do you? What are your thoughts on the subject?
  • Throwback to our Hawaii trip. We talked about spending a month there this winter. I wouldn’t be mad at that idea. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Are you a lover of the heat or colder weather? I usually prefer the colder temps, because they mean snow. But we have spent a lot of time in the mountains so I’m soaking up all the time we’re getting in Palm Springs.
  • My body has been greatly confused by the 90 degrees in November weather. 😂 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This guy y’all. 🥰 He is spicy and has a newfound obsession with Star Wars. He is snuggly for an hour in the morning, and independent the rest of the day. I never knew a child could be as busy as he is.  He’s definitely testing boundaries these days, but when he does something wrong he says “I’m sorry” in the sweetest voice and damn it is hard to stay mad at that. ❤️
  • I almost wasn’t going to post this photo for 2 reasons. 
1️⃣ Because it’s not a great picture. 
2️⃣ Because you can see my cellulite when you zoom in. But I decided to share for that exact reason. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We all struggle with insecurities. Even at the best shape of my life I still had things that bothered me about my body. But y’all, these insecurities do not define us! They don’t make us any less of a wife, mom, sister, daughter, or friend. People love you because you are kind and loving and funny and a good person! No one gives a shit about the cellulite on your thighs except you. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We need to stop defining our worth based on how we look. We are all different and those differences make this world such an amazing and unique place.
  • “You’ve been really absent lately. Why aren’t you posting more?”
Because of these two. Need I say more? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But I will say more. 🤣 #canthelpmyself ❤️
Anyone who tries to make you feel bad for being present with your kids at this young age is not someone who needs to be in your life. We are on this travel journey to not only see the world, but to spend time together while we still can. And yes I 100% understand I made this decision knowing full well that I would be spending 24 hours a day, every day with my kids. Is it always easy? Hell no! But it is absolutely worth it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
LIFE 👏🏼 IS 👏🏼SHORT! 👏🏼 I know more than most how short it can be. So while I may be able to find a few moments here and there to comment and like, I’m also busy making memories that I will cherish till the end of my days. ❤️ And that is something more valuable than posting every day to a social media platform. #sorrynotsorry😂
