Method Product Review (part one)

Since my son was born I've been on the hunt for products that are natural and eco-friendly.

One brand I've taken a liking to is Method,

Method is a company trying to reinvent cleaning products and the way that they are made. They try to better the environment not only by what they put in their products but also by how they are made and distributed. They don't use harsh chemicals and they are animal friendly. All of their bottles are recyclable and made from recycled plastic. They also offer refills of all of their products so you don't have to continue to by a new bottle every time.  Over all they try super hard to make things better for the people using their products and the environment that we live in.

I've tried a decent amount of their products and I haven't found one I'm not happy with,
I find a purpose for them in every inch of my house.
They make a wide variety of products from hand and dish soap to floor and surface cleaner. They also make things specifically for your bathroom.

I originally decided to give Method I try because of a site I'm apart of. Grove Collaborative. After signing up they sent me an email offering me free product. All of these products happened to be from Method.

I received anticbac all-purpose cleaner in the scent bamboo, dish soap in the scent cucumber, hand soap in the scent french lavender, and wood for good squirt and mop wood floor cleaner in the scent almond.

Since then I've picked up some of the same products in different scents and I enjoy every single one of them.

The anitbac all-purpose cleaner is definitely my favorite product I've tried this far. Before I was using Lysol. Lysol has a strong scent that sticks around hours after you're done cleaning and the chemicals make my skin burn and itch. I was so pleased the first time I used this cleaner. It smells amazing. The scent isn't strong either. I have asthma so that's important to me. It also don't stick around. The method cleaner works just as well as the Lysol and it doesn't irritate my skin.
I ended up buying more of the antibac all- purpose cleaner in the scent wildflower and I love it just the same.

The product I'm least pleased with this the dish soap. I have it in the scent cucumber and pink grape fruit. They both smell amazing and it makes my great too. Other dish soaps dry my hands out and I hate it. The one thing I'm not happy about is that it foaming. I feel like with foaming products I find myself having to use more because I don't feel like its cleaning well enough for me. Seventh Generation dish soap is still my favorite and I'll continue to purchase that instead of the method.

I'm really big fan of soaps that don't make my skin dry. This hand soap is absolutely amazing!! I might have lied when I said antibac all-purpose cleaner was my favorite because this is pretty close. I've used the scents waterfall, french lavender, and the limited edition pumpkin clover. The pumpkin clover is amazing and its only around for the fall so I'm trying to stock up. With this soap my hands always feel moist and soft. I'm never using any other hand soap again.

The wood floor cleaner is great. It smells really sweet, it made my floors really shiny, and its not slippery. I didn't actually use this product for myself. I let my mother use it and from what I saw it was great and probably will be something she'll keep around the house.

One thing I didn't get from Grove Collaborative but purchased on my own is their derived refreshing body wash in the scent waterfall and their all-purpose naturally derived surface cleaner.
I haven't gotten a chance to use the surface cleaner but the body wash is just what I needed.
If you haven't noticed I have sensitive skin. The body soap I was using before this would cause me to itch and itch and itch but the method makes my skin so soft and doesn't irritate any part of my body. The waterfall scent kind of smell like a basic mans wash but I don't mind because it doesn't stick around which is a little disappointing. I like to smell good after my showers but if my skin isn't irritated then I can live.

I'm currently expecting another pack from Grove Collaborative with glass cleaner, tub and tile cleaner, and toilet cleaner. I'll also probably invest in their daily wood cleaner and laundry detergent.

If you're interested Grove Collaborative is a site where you can buy products from brands like method, seventh generation, yes to, and many more.
On this site you can have them ship your certain products as often as you like. Every two weeks or two months, The prices are also discounted from regular store prices.

If you're interested in signing up you can do so through this link.

If I don't purchase my products from the grove I get them from target. Target always has amazing gift card deals or buy x amount get one free deals.

If you plan on purchasing any of the products I've talked about do it trough target or grove collaborative and if you do let me know which ones and how you'd liked them.

Also look for my next post about the second round of method products.

Thanks for reading.
