Today I
found myself running around the house cleaning like I was nesting or something
(NO, I am not pregnant.) But who would have thought that when you are sent
cleaning product, it would motivate you to clean… I wouldn’t mind if someone
would send me a maid in the mail haha.
But I was
sent a Heavenly Home pack from the beautiful Sascha ( I wont say where from.)
After cleaning the house my house smelt heavenly and there was not a germ left
on any surface I don’t think.
The first
product that was in my heavenly home pack was:
Ajax
Spray n Wipe Multipurpose Wipes 40pack tub. RRP $4.99
You can
refill these with your choice of Antibacterial or Long Lasting Fragrance. I
gave both of these guys a crack (with the help of my daughter who loves to help
clean the house.) I like using the antibacterial in the kitchen, for that piece
of mind and for the fact that food prep is done on the benches. And for the
rest of the house I love using the Long Lasting Fragrance as it just leaves the
house smelling beautiful and for a prolonged amount of time to. And its not a
perfume smell or anything like that but more a fresh clean Apple smell, like that you
smell when you walk into a hotel.
I have a
laundry hoarding problem and whenever I see powder or softener on special I
feel inclined to buy it (even if I don’t need it!!) So when these came I gave a
little shriek as I had seen them on the shelf but was never on special so I
never got around to purchasing either of them.
Cold
Power Sensitive Touch 1L Liquid rrp $9.99 and also the Cold Power Sensitive Touch 1kg
Powder $9.99
Now I have
used some cold power product before and loved it as I did not have to waste any
of my hot water on the washing machine. And my clothes came out cleaner then
ever. This stuff is exactly the same as the normal Cold Power except there is
no smell and it doesn’t irritate the skin. We have recently found out that our
youngest gets irritated skin really easily and have to be super careful what we
use on her skin and washing products. She broke out in a horrible rash that
almost looked like bleeding eczema, all because I used a powder that smelt
amazing L I wash all her clothes
separate from ours now and use this stuff. I prefer the liquid as no matter
what there is never any residue and I find it is a deeper clean. 
Cuddly
Magic Moments in Rosy Love 800mL
Is what I
use with the Cold Power to make our (not Madisons) clothes smell divine. When I
use this product I find that my entire house smells, as it just lingers out of
the laundry and that is with the door closed. I would love to try the other
scents in this as I love the Rose scent but don’t know it would be my
favourite. My clothes come out super soft when using this and it is best used
with towels. It keeps them fluffy and soft and not hard and crunchy like my
previous “softener” did!
And then
came the huge pile of dishes that had been calling my name all morning.. DREAD!
I hate dishes and I think I really need to invest in a dishwasher as the whole
hand washing dishes kills me. I will have to wait until our new kitchen is put
in though, which could be a while (waaaah.) Anyway when I do hand wash my
dishes I like a product where I don’t have to use much liquid and a product
that doesn’t leave my dishes slimy and full of product. So this is where Sascha
sent me:
Palmolive
Ultra Concentrate 750mL $4.99 in antibacterial lemon, but you can get this is four other
variants: Original, Zesty Lemon & Lime and Soothing Aloe Very Dry Skin. The
Aloe Vera wouldn’t do anything for me anyway as I wash my dishes with gloves
on, as it has taken a toll on my poor nails and cuticles. But I need literally
two drops of this product in a sink full of steaming hot water to get my dishes
sparkling. One thing I did notice with Palmolive is when my wine glass dried
off after being washed I was left with a sparkling, squeaky (literally), clean
glass. I love the results I got with this dishwashing liquid and think I will
continue to buy it (until I get my dishwashers of course.)
So now my
house is nice and clean and smelling nice, I just have to sit back and wait to
do it all again tomorrow after the little “angels” turn the house upside and
create more work for Mummy. This makes me tired just thinking about it haha.
