Guest Post: 3 Reasons I’m Switching to Plant Based Cleaning Products

Hi Kylee’s Korner!

This is Teryn, Kylee’s sister! Today I am talking about why I made the switch to plant based cleaning!

*this post contains affiliated links.

1. Plant-based cleaners works just as well as chemical cleaners.

They not only clean well, but they also smell amazing and have non of the potentially harmful side affects that come with chemical cleaners. I’m absolutely obsessed with this all purpose cleaner from Caldrea. The Pear Blossom Agave scent is amazing and it cleans so well! I dilute it to mix in a bucket and mop my floors squeaky clean! You can also dilute it to refill your countertop spray! My floors and counters look shiny and smell so good!

Right now, Grove is letting Kylee’s Korner friends try 2 Full size Caldrea cleaners and 2 Grove products FOR FREE ! This deal is automatically added to your cart when you spend just $20 on your first purchase with Grove! PLUS, they let you try their VIP membership which not only gets you free shipping, but you also get free price matching. So lowest prices on amazing products plus tons of free stuff is a huge WIN to me! Score your free stuff here!

2. My kids don’t need to consume chemicals.

How many times have you fed your kids off the counter? Pour some goldfish out, cut up some cheese or grapes and let them have at it. Who has time to grab a plate?! I either don’t have time or I’m too lazy.. but I digress. My kids are also the little queens (I have 3 girls) of dropping food on the ground and picking it up and eating it. I say, “go for it! it’s building your immune system!” but not when they’re also dropping those foods into chemicals and ingesting those. YUCK! I feel so much better about my surfaces being cleaned with natural cleaners over chemicals and know they’re not accidentally ingesting potentially harmful chemicals into their growing bodies.

3. Chemicals are not good for septic systems.

Do you live on a septic system? We do! We have carved out a little piece of heaven in the country and all of our plumbing drains into a septic system! There, everything is broken down in the most natural way and actually fertilizes our ground for the most lush garden! When we flush tons of bleach and other chemicals down our drains (cleaners, laundry soap, etc) we are interrupting and hurting that natural process. Plant based cleaners don’t do that! They break down naturally just like everything else!

I’ve tried quite a few plant-based cleaners and so when Grove asked me to try Caldrea, I was super excited! I’ve been cleaning my home with it for a few weeks now and have to say I’m absolutely loving it! My surfaces end up being squeaky clean, they seriously smell amazing, and just the tiniest bit goes such a long way!! I’m impressed and so I’m willing to come on here and share my personal opinions! I absolutely think it’s worth trying it for free!

Try Grove and Caldrea today!

We all need cleaning products, why not take advantage of the free VIP trial (that only ends up being $19.99 a YEAR if you end up sticking with it) and get the lowest prices with their price match guarantee, cleaners you love delivered to your door with free shipping, plus one of the largest selection of plant based products in one place?! There are no commitments, if you don’t like it, you can totally cancel! For me, I find value in it and am sticking with it! Score those FREE products HERE!

Remember, Grove offers a wide selection of natural household cleaning and personal care products. They have cleaners, hair and skin care, laundry products, baby products and more! They also offer a super flexible (and optional) monthly shipment schedule so that you never run out of these products you use every day!

13 Fun Korean Beauty Products That Are All the Rage

There’s a fun trend storming the world right now and you can find Korean beauty products all over Instagram and in the handbags of your favorite celebs. The cool kids are all loving Korean skincare and it’s no surprise. These quirky lip balms, lotions, and face masks come in uniquely adorable packaging that you can’t help but love. Check out these 13 fun Korean beauty products that would make great gifts or conversation pieces in your own purse.

13 Fun Korean Beauty Products

1. Keep oily face at bay with these oil blotting sheets.

How smart and cute are these? Keep them handy to help you control shine during your busy day. Dab a forehead here, a chin here, and look super chic doing it.

2. Oh-so-lovely towel headband.

Keep your hair out of the way while you apply makeup in the morning or wash your face at night. It’s so cute, I wouldn’t even mind if an unexpected guest stopped by.

3. Exfoliating jellyfish

This little guy isn’t just for looks; he’s really great for your skin too. Little exfoliating jellyfish has soft bristles on top and bottom that are ideal for daily cleansing and sloughing off dead skin cells for a fresh face.

4. Bright eyes with cooling eye sticks

Never mind that it’s an adorable bamboo-munching panda. Never mind that the stick itself is so dang cute that I want to pull it out of my pocket every few minutes—this TonyMoly Panda’s Dream So cool Eye Stick de-puffs your eyes while delivering a soothing, cooling sensation.

5. Hilarious carbonated clay mask

This is too funny, and pretty amazing at the same time. Only Korean beauty products can deliver a face mask so bubbly and carbonated that it expands on your face into a fizzy, airy cloud. Totally a fun thing to try at your next girls night!

6. Lazy and Joy Egg Bun Puff

The creators of this cosmetics puff certainly have a sense of humor…and a love for eggs. Or maybe that’s a Korean thing (there are a lot of egg-themed beauty products). So blend and buff in eggcelent style.

7. Dear Darling…

This yummy little popsicle-shaped lip tint is just as darling as its name. What a cute gift for a friend and it’s under $7.

8. Korean facial masks

The impressive thing about these “I’m Real” facial masks is that they are made of 100% natural pulp and each one is designed to perform a specific function (i.e pore care, elasticity, brightening, etc.).

9. It’s a zoo out there.

This Korean Saranghae Zoo Foundation acts as a foundation and concealer for blemish and freckle coverage, as well as SPF 36.

10. Sweet dreams lemon sleep mask

The secret to that pristine Korean skin might just be in this whitening sleeping mask. It’s got Vitamin C and Arbutin to accelerate skin whitening while you sleep.

11. Inky velvet lips

Get that velvety matte lip look with Peri’s Ink Velvet. It’s all the rage in Korea and has good customer reviews, along with a very affordable price point.

12. Love Blossom soft hand cream

Again, packaging takes the cake and I love the graphics on this soothing daily hand cream.

13. Petit bunny lip gloss

Forget the traditional tube of lip moisturizer, this Petit Bunny Gloss comes in a long, thin bar and it is so dang cute! Those bunny ears.

Whimsical and fun, it’s no wonder Korean beauty products have taken the world by surprise. You can find more of my beauty favorites and tips here!

12 items from amazon that we should all be thankful for

This brush set is super affordable and works well! With all the makeup brush sets out there that can break the bank, I’d say this is a win!!!

2. slipper socks! you can thank me later

3. wet brush is one of my favorite things ever!!! this brush will literally keep your hair from having any breakage when you brush it

4.tinkle razor You know that “peach fuzz” you thought was embarrassing… but waxing and tweezing is just a pain. this will be your best friend. I am definetly thankful for this one.

5. A soft plush robe that I live in . I’m usually wearing this well into the day every Saturday

6. The best Mascara end of story. It will give your lashes tons of length and volume. If you want super intense length and volume you can use the primer with. but I don’t think its necessary for everyday use.

7. The green yoda mask I am known for. its the beset you guys! Bentonite clay is natural and pulls toxins out of things. perfect for clogged or dirty pores on the face but not limited to that.
