So to save myself from inhaling some of those chemicals, I decided to take a tour in the home cleaning section of the supermarket to find a product that does not read harsh chemicals and makes cleaning enjoyable to me. And I came across this product Called Mrs.Myers Clean day Dish soap which we will be reviewing today. Image credit: www.mrs.myers.com
This company was first operated by Caldrea Company and then later integrated with SC Johnson’s Home cleaning products based in Racine, Wisconsin. This company was a brainchild of Mrs. Thelma’s Daughter Monica Nassif and was inspired by Mrs.Thelma A. Meyer, an Iowa homemaker. Mrs.Nassif believed that her mom has always had a real passion for keeping things neat and tidy and that is what inspired them to start this company. Looking into the ingredients I was very happy that it did not contain ammonia, chlorine, glycol solvents, parabens, phthalates, formaldehyde, artificial colorants, phosphates or petroleum distillates like other house cleaning products. The ingredients read as follows:
And now to go ahead with the testing of the product, Here’s how it goes. The packaging was neat and simple. The information on the packaging was simple and easy to follow. The fragrance was great almost aroma-therapeutic. I had a few dishes that were soaked and ready to be washed, and some had dried food remains. The product did great on the dishes that were already soaked. The soap was easy to get off the dishes with not much rinsing required, unlike some detergents which adhere to the surface and take a lot of rinsing time and waste of water. The dish soap did not do so great with dried food remains on the dishes. Eventually, after putting a little more time and effort into scrubbing, it was clean. My hands were smooth and moisturized after the wash and the beautiful lavender fragrance lingered quite some time after the wash. All their products are biodegradable and the packaging is recyclable and the bottles are made up of 25% post-consumer plastic. Their manufacturing processes are based on personal care standards in a cosmetic-grade cGMP facility. cGMP is an abbreviation for the term “current Good Manufacturing Practice”, which refers to FDA regulations regarding the manufacturing, testing, and quality control of pharmaceutical and food products. Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day also supports sustainable practices of Eco-sensitive areas throughout Asia, Africa and South America like the Brazilian rain forests. On my scorecard, the product would be rated a 4.5/5 Having tried this dish soap, I would say I am satisfied with the results and would definitely go ahead and try the other products in Mrs. Myer’s brand. So, you know that this product has a big thumbs up from me. So go ahead and sample these products and let me know how it works for you.
