Are You Using Mrs. Meyer’s Products? Re-think these 3

If you have been using Mrs. Meyer’s products, it’s probably because you are concerned with using toxic chemicals in your home. Mrs. Meyer’s products are usually placed with other “safer” brands deemed non-toxic at department stores and grocery aisles.  But, did you know that a few of Mrs. Meyers products contain ingredients that pose safety concerns? If you’ve been using Meyer’s products don’t worry, not all their products raise health concerns. However, I did find information regarding the products below. These products contain ingredients that the Good Guide labels as “Bad Actors.”


Check out all our safer personal care/beauty, home/wellness and curated fashion products.
 

The Good Guide analyzes personal care and household chemical products and comes up with health ratings.  These ratings are determined by the number of ingredients that have health or regulatory concerns. A 0-10 rating scale is used with 0 being the worst and 10 being the best ingredient health rating.

*Ratings as of September 6, 2017

    If you currently use any of these products, I think it’s time to swap them for safer laundry products. We love the products listed here which meet high safety standards without compromising effectiveness. Start by switching out one of your cleaning products with one from Start Living Natural’s nontoxic product list.  Change starts with one choice!
