I recently had the opportunity to sample several different organic products for the first time. I want to share a little product information about these products so you can determine if you want to use them as well; Organic Soap Nuts, a Safix Scrub Pad and a Soap Nuts Bath Bar – all from Greener Living.
When I first heard about soap nuts as an organic laundry detergent, I was a little skeptical. Soap nuts? What are soap nuts? Do they really work? When I received them in the mail I was surprised that they smelled like soap (I know) but I was still a little iffy about using them in my new washing machine. They certainly didn’t look like anything I had ever seen that belonged in a washing machine.
However, I still wanted to give the soap nuts a chance. Several washes later I have to admit that I am impressed. They did what they claim, although I still don’t know the how or why..but they work. I have a front load HE machine and I was thankful that they did not suds up too much for my machine.
The Safix Scrub Pad is different. I like that it is biodegradable but was surprised that it is made from a coconut. I didn’t know coconuts could be used for washing dishes but I am happy that I learned something new. I even tried this on my non-stick skillet – no scratches! This pad claims to last about a month – impressive. I also noticed I could use less detergent which is also a bonus. 
The bath/hand bar soap has 5 ingredients and those ingredients make your skin feel wonderful! It lathers nicely and rinses easily. I love that it is a natural product and still makes my skin feel and smell great.
What do you think about these natural products? Would you like to give a Soap Nuts Organic Laundry Detergent Sample Pack a try for yourself? I will be posting a giveaway in the next couple of days. I hope you will enter and win your own set of products.
In the meantime, you can find out more on their website Greener Living – Facebook – Twitter and Youtube.

This is good for environmental. I like it.
I have seriously been considering trying an all natural laundry soap and this review definitely helps in my decision, thank you:)
I have not heard of these products before now. After hearing your review of them though I would be willing to try them out. (Probably wouldn’t have without the review though.) And I love that they are all natural.
I would really like to try these products. They sound like they really work, and I was impressed about the Soap Nuts cleaning so well. I will have to look for your giveaway!
I am trying to be 100% natural in our house. I love the idea of soap nuts and particularly like the coconut scrubber you reviewed!
great review it sounds interesting to try
I have heard good things about them and i will enter cause i want to try but to cheap to buy them lol.
I have heard of these, but I’m skeptical they work as well as laundry soap. I like that they save money and are better for the envirionment.
I had never heard of soap nuts before but the premise wounds interesting. I am not sure whether I would use them in my machine but I am interested in the soap pad and that you had good results in your non-stick cookware.
I was pretty sceptical about these too, but recently won a sample pack and they worked great. Would be perfect for when travel too to take to peoples houses that have detergent can’t use with our allergies!
I’ve heard of soap nuts, but never tried them. I’ll be on the lookout for the giveaway. Thanks.
I’ve never heard of soap nuts either but they sound great! And if they’re organic, they are right up my alley!
Very helpful and interesting post, btw!
Ok you got me on that one. I have never heard of soap nuts either. They do sound impressive though. I like that they are safe for HE machines. Thanks for the review.
