For My Kids Product Review

Posted on 25 June 2008

For My Kids is a company that produce all natural herbal products that are beneficial for your children and our planet. They’re beneficial in the way that they replace some of the incredibly harmful chemicals that are found in everyday household cleaners and personal care products.

I was sent the “All-Natural Alternative to Antibacterial Disinfectants”, “All-Natural Hand Wash”, “All-Natural Lip Balm”, and “All-Natural Comfrey Salve”. The For My Kids range was created by Christine Stewart who realised that the chemicals she was using around her office and home could be potentially very damaging to her new baby. On top of that there are over one million poisonings in North America each year, with 60% of these being from children under six who have eaten household cleaners.
For My Kids All-Natural Alternative to Antibacterial Disinfectants
The first product made was the All-Natural Alternative to Antibacterial Disinfectants which was based on the famous Vinegar of the Four Thieves formula, named after some 17th century thieves who stole from homes of the sick without getting ill themselves. It contains organic herbs and spices (lavender, rosemary, rue, wormwood, sage, peppermint, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, calamus and garlic), organic camphor oil and distilled white vinegar.

The “All-Natural Hand Wash” makes no claims about being antibacterial, but it smells nice and my hands “feel” clean after using, and they definitely looked clean. The vegan lip balm certainly works well, being vanilla it smelt nice and the only part that wasn’t listed as organic was the candelilla wax, which comes from a small shrub in Mexico and southwest USA, so at the very least is natural.

Prices start from $4.59 and they’re fantastic alternatives to the popular non-eco products filling up shelves in your local store..

It may be called For My Kids, but it’s not just for kids. Check them out at For My Kids. Plus you can read more eco product reviews over at Life Goggles.
