Eco Nuts Review and Giveaway

You are not even going to believe this company and their products. I am so glad that I have been introduced to Eco Nuts, because they are one of a kind in my book! This company makes an amazingly safe, nontoxic, and natural laundry cleaner called Eco Nuts, that are actually dried fruit shells that come from the Sapindus mukorossi tree in Nepal, India and Indonesia. The ones they harvest come from high up in the Himalayas and are the highest quality "soap nut" on the market.How do Eco Nuts work?
Well, they contain saponin, a natural cleaner that works as a surfactant, breaking the surface tension of the water to penetrate the fibers of your clothing, lifting stains from the fabric and leaving dirt suspended in the water that is rinsed away.
This is what I love - Eco Nuts are gentle on both clothes and skin, making them ideal for those with sensitive skin, eczema, allergies and psoriasis. Because they are so mild, they are perfect for baby clothes and cloth diapers. The antimicrobial properties of Eco Nuts also make them great for septic and grey water systems. Here are even more benefits:

  • Biodegradable

  • Antimicrobial

  • Hypoallergenic

  • Nut Allergy Safe!

  • 100% Natural and Free From Manmade Chemicals

  • Sustainable

  • Fragrance Free

  • Reusable

  • Vegan Friendly, Vegan Approved
I love, love, love Eco Nuts!! They work in all washing machines with any temperature of water. All you have to do is put 4-5 Eco Nuts in the the little reusable wash bag that is provided, tie it closed, and throw it in the laundry and wash as you normally would. At the end of the wash, remove the bag, let it dry and you can use that same bag at least 5-7 times in hot water and up to 10 times in cold water. Then, they can be composted!! How awesome is that!?
After doing a load of laundry with Eco Nuts, my clothes came out of my dryer very fluffy and soft, even without a dryer sheet. They didn't have any smell, and they were very clean. These come in trial, regular and large sizes. You can also find other Eco Nuts laundry products to order with them, if you would like.
Now, besides the totally awesome laundry Eco Nuts, they also offer spa products that are fabulous! I received the Green Tea and Dead Sea Salt Scrub, which is a great exfoliating salt scrub that utilizes dead sea salt and antioxidant-rich green tea. I know I need to exfoliate my skin more, but I just don't. Now, that I have been using this scrub, I love the difference I see in my skin. It is so soft and smooth. Besides making skin feel luxurious, exfoliating helps the lymphatic system work at its best.

And check out this short ingredient list: apricot oil, grape seed oil, dead sea salt, green tea leaves, vitamin E and a paraben free preservative. I always say, the shorter the ingredient list, the better! And these are words that you can pronounce and know. That is great too! Check out all of their scrubs here, including Chocolate Sugar Scrub. Doesn't that sound good?
I can't decide which of their products I like best, so I am recommending you head on over to the Eco Nuts website, check it all out, and pick your favorites!
One of you lucky ducks is going to win a medium sized box of Eco Nuts!!! That is up to 90 loads of laundry! Wahoo!
