🧺 I Made the Switch 🧺
I’ve officially said goodbye to Tide…
Something I’ve used for as long as I can remember.
Original, Sport, Febreze, Downy… you name it, I used it.
I always thought they smelled so fresh and got the job done…
but once I learned more about what’s actually in them, I couldn’t unsee it.
Things like:
• 1,4-dioxane (linked to liver toxicity and cancer)
• Ethoxylated alcohols (which can damage the gut lining)
• Optical brighteners, synthetic dyes, SLS/SLES, parabens, phosphates…
Not things I want on my skin, in my home, or in our waterways.
So here’s a simple swap:
Buy this 👉 Seventh Generation Lavender
Not that ❌ Tide (any version)
Why? It’s plant-based, safer for your skin, and cleaner for the environment.
While I don’t get the overpowering scent I used to love (let’s be honest, it really did smell good)…
I’m getting used to it. The mild lavender scent is calming and clean… and it’s more than fine. 🌿
🧼 If you’ve been thinking about detoxing your laundry routine, this is an easy, everyday place to start.
