Eco2Life is a new range of home cleaning products. The products are formulated from naturally derived Eco friendly ingredients.
The way these products differ from others is that you buy the 500ml sprat bottles empty. Yes that’s right empty.
What comes with this empty spray bottle is a small light Small Wonder bottle which contains enough solution to make up a 500ml bottle. You simply add the solution to the spray bottle and add water. This reduces the need to carry bulky bottles from shops. The spray bottles can then be refilled over and over by simply buying a Small wonder refill
There are 4 different cleaning products in the Eco2Life range.
Surface Cleaner
Made using naturally blended coconut, corn and vegetable derivatives. Suitable for most surfaces around the home.
Bath & Shower cleaner For cleaning porcelain basins and baths, shower tiles, general ceramic tiles, chrome fixtures. Have you ever looked closely at the rims around your taps or plug hole? They can get very grubby and bathrooms need extra special attention when it comes to cleaning.
Floor Cleaner I found this product to have a lot more uses rather than just cleaning floors. Obviously it’s great on vinyl and ceramic floors but I also found it cleaned my wooden table very well too. Ideal for cleaning resilient stone, concrete, vinyl, terrazzo, quarry tiles, plastic, ceramic, rubber, enamel, Formica, stainless steel, painted or varnished surfaces, marble and wood, water resistant surfaces or surfaces not harmed by water. It has a rather pleasant lemon and ginger fragrance too.
Glass Cleaner
I find glass so hard to clean without making it look a lot worse. I have a window cleaner for my windows but have two glass units which are a pain for dust and grime. I found this glass cleaner cleaned really well using a few sprays and a dry cloth, no streaks or marks with this product.
I found the Eco2Life products easy enough to make up. Full instructions are included with each bottle but it’s simply a case of pouring water into the bottle half way and then adding the small wonder solution and topping up with more water.
Then simply attach the spray nozzle and get cleaning.

use vinegar
following on twitter @jennhaden3 and jennifer103 on bloglovin
I would say using vinegar is a great way to clean more eco friendly. It cleans glass wonderfully 😀
little and often so it doesnt pile up
Forget cleaning products – get yourself a steam mop with attachments. I couldn’t believe how clean everything was, especially my hob, using nothing but steam and a soft brush
white wine is good for cleaning stains off carpets/felt sofas
Use bicarbonate of soda and boiling water down the kitchen sink to unblock pipes. It works and it’s envirnomentally friendly. I have followed your blog by email and followed Eco2Life on Twitter 🙂
Best cleaning tip is shake rugs outside regularly and if there is snow place them facedown in it for a couple of hours, The dirt drains out by magic.
use lemon juice mixed with vinegar on the limescale in bathroom
use newspaper to clean the windows
Get the kids to help – they need to learn somehow 🙂
Bicarbonate of soda is a wonderful way of removing smells from fabric or carpets. Just rub it in, leave it for up to 24 hours then either brush, hoover, or wash out. You can also soak t-shirts etc. if excessively sweaty in a mixture of vinegar and water – works like a charm.
bicarbonate of soda 🙂
baking soda is a miracle cleaner-
one more- instead of using expensive stain removers just hang your clothes in the sun – sun is the best bleach there is
hot water and a bit of elbow grease – that’s the right way to do it!

Squeeze a bit of lemon into the water before you mop the floor – don’t use too many products, they’ll give you asthma
Soak your shower head in vinegar overnight to unblock the holes. I’m following your blog by email and following Eco2Life on twitter (@yasminamrgaber)
Keep cleaning products in separate boxes by room so you can just pick up a box & go.
Bicarbonate of soda and water to make a paste – cleans anything!
Vinegar (being short sighted helps too!)
put half a lemon in a bowl of water in the microwave turn on for about a minute , then simply wipe the inside of the microwave leaves it clean and smelling fresh
i find earbuds super useful for cleaning round taps and when cleaning the corners of the windows in my home 🙂
A little specialist here but white wine vinegar does a brilliant job of removing the white urine deposits that form on the base of the hamster cage
Baking soda is a surefire answer, but vinegar will kill mold.

in our house, barring the kids from a room is the best and probably only way to keep it clean for longer than 5 minutes…so one tip could be to have a child free zone/ adult haven, so that you don’t have to worry about sticky hand prints etc wherever they’re playing, because you know you have another room that’s clean and tidy if anyone visits…or if you just need to escape for 5!

Lemon cuts through grease, and smells wonderful.
To clean wood burner glass
Screw newspaper up into a ball, dampen, dip into ash. I find this cleans the glass really well.
Toothpaste is wonderful for cleaning silver

I keep some of the old toothbrushes for getting into small areas when cleaning
De grease surfaces by adding malt vinegar to some soapy water.
Dishwasher cleaners are quite expensive, so I use half a cup of soda crystals, and put the dishwasher on a normal cycle. And Hey presto! Squeaky clean dishwasher for a few pennies 🙂
Use baby oil on stainless steel, makes a great shine and protects from dirt!
I put my cleaning products in a box to take & use from room to room as I got fed up of forgetting something & had to keep going back downstairs to get it

Best cleaning tips is a weekly rota. If you’re busy with work, divide up the jobs so they all get done. Each weekend I have a different ‘big job’ to do so I’m not unrealistically trying to spring clean every week!
Following you on Bloglovin, following Eco2Life on Twitter. My fav cleaning tip: A bowl of hot water with some lemon juice in the microwave! Steams off any muck, easy to wipe away, smells lovely 🙂
I follow by email and on twitter as @ashlallan. My tip is to do it little but often!
following eco life, best tip is a bit of lemon juice on a cloth or cleaning windows – easily removes streaks 🙂

My tip: use old socks as dish washing cloths to save money on buying them… They work just as we’ll if not better!
instead of wasting money on stain removers( which don’t work anyway ) after wash, hang clothes in sun for a day – all stains will be gone- just like that
My best cleaning tip is to wipe stainless steel over with baby oil – it gets rid of any streaks and makes it ultra shiny.
Line the grill pan with foil before griliing and it can be thrown away leaving a clean pan with no messy fat to have to wash up.
Do little & often, put a timer on for 10 minutes and see how much you can get done in those few minutes – and always have some upbeat music on, can really help me. Use vinegar for cleaning mirrors & glass, & I swear by microfibre cloths
I’m not as fast and agile as I used to be so for dusting, I wrap tumble dryer sheets round a tall duster and it cleans cobwebs like a charm.
I always use coke for cleaning windows – gets them sparkling and leaves no streaks!
I use coke for cleaning drains and the loo

I use vinegar and old newspapers to keep glass shiny and bicarbonate of soda to remove stains.
water is actually a great cleaner – £1 shop items are the next best alternatives to water
