Shaklee Basic H2 Review & Giveaway

I was super excited when Erin from Healthy Branscoms gave me the chance to review Shaklee's Basic H2 and do a giveaway on my blog.

If you are like me, finding a good all-purpose cleaner that not only does a good job, but is a safe and healthy alternative to other mainstream cleaners is a high priority.

The Basic H2 is truly a great find! Not only can you use it on any washable surface, but it is also nontoxic, natural, and long-lasting. With just one 16 oz bottle of concentrate, you can make 48 gallons of cleaner! And, it is only $10.35 a bottle for Shaklee members. Wow!

*For a limited time, Erin from Healthy Branscoms is offering a free membership with a $30 purchase and a Healthy Branscom's Special. Email Erin for more details before this deal is gone!*

To try out the Basic H for myself, I first mixed just 2 drops in 16 oz. of water for cleaning windows and mirrors and then I mixed 1/4 tsp. to 16 oz. of water for all-purpose cleaning.

Here's a look at what I did:

 Before (nasty!):
 After:

 Before:
(Aidan stuck some foam sticky things on my kitchen floor and they would not come off after much scrubbing)
 After: (TA DA!)
Before: (gross apt. carpet/stains)
 After:


Let me just say I was AMAZED that this did so well. First of all, it doesn't have a smell, which is the thing I hate most about other cleaners. Secondly, I was so impressed with the fact that it worked on these thing that other cleaners had not been able to improve. I really did not think that I could get rid of that age old stain in the carpet, but I think I now have a new obsession! Our carpet is horrible because they didn't clean it very well between the last renter and us. (I know, disgusting.) Thirdly, I would feel safe using this product around my children without worrying about smells. And, I could let Aidan actually clean with me too!

Okay, ready for the giveaway?
