Clean Living Natural Household Products for a Toxin Free Home
🧽 Why Go Natural at Home?
Reduces toxins: Common cleaners and detergents often contain synthetic fragrances, formaldehyde, and sulfates — all linked to allergies, asthma, and hormone disruption.
Protects your lungs & skin: Especially important if you’re healing from respiratory issues or have sensitive skin (like me!).
Better for the planet: These products are biodegradable, cruelty-free, and often come in refillable or zero-waste packaging.
🧺 My Favorite Natural & Vegan Household Products
1. All-Purpose Cleaners & Surface Sprays
💛 Recommended brands:
Branch Basics – Concentrated and refillable. One bottle cleans glass, counters, bathrooms, and even laundry.
Aunt Fannie’s – Made with vinegar and essential oils. Smells fresh, not fake.
Thieves Household Cleaner (Young Living) – One bottle lasts forever and smells like cinnamon + citrus!
🌱 I love using these on counters, sinks, mirrors, and even my yoga mat.
2. Dishwashing Liquid & Dishwasher Pods
💛 Recommended brands:
Ecos – Plant-powered and gentle on hands
Puracy – Non-toxic, great lather, and baby-safe
Seventh Generation – Affordable and available almost everywhere
💧Bonus tip: Add a splash of white vinegar to your dishwasher for crystal-clear glasses!
3. Laundry Detergents
💛 My faves:
Molly’s Suds – Safe for sensitive skin, baby clothes, and even cloth diapers
Tru Earth Laundry Strips – Great for travel, zero waste, and mess-free
Ecos Laundry Liquid – Hypoallergenic and available in calming lavender or free & clear

4. Candles & Air Fresheners
💛 Cleaner swaps:
Fontana Candle Co. – 100% beeswax + essential oils, no paraffin
Grow Fragrance – Plant-based room sprays (try lavender or bamboo!)
Siblings Candles – DIY candle kits made from coconut and soy wax
🔥 Avoid candles made with paraffin and synthetic fragrances — they release toxins into your air.
5. Floor & Bathroom Cleaners
💛 Safe options:
Bon Ami – Old-school powder that’s safe and super effective
Dr. Bronner’s Sal Suds – A tiny bit in warm water cleans everything
Better Life – Their bathroom cleaner cuts through grime with citrus and tea tree
🌿 I use essential oils like eucalyptus, tea tree, or lemon in a diffuser after cleaning for a spa-like vibe.

✨ Final Thoughts:
Your home is an extension of your wellness journey. Swapping out a few conventional products for clean, plant-based alternatives can make a big difference — not just for your lungs, but for your peace of mind. These are the products I use in my own home, and I always feel better knowing that what I’m breathing in and putting on my hands is safe, clean, and aligned with the Divine Chef lifestyle.
Start small. One room at a time. And feel the shift.
