About ecostore USA-

The team at ecostore USA loves making a difference in people’s lives. ecostore USA does not compromise on performance, so customers can be assured of the efficacy of the products – they truly work. We offer more than 100 products, each one meeting the most stringent environmental and sustainability standards. The guiding principle of every formulation is and will always be that the end product must not only be good for the user, but good for the planet.

Ecostore USA knows that it can be expensive to buy natural or organic products, but we’ve found a way around this by safely super-concentrating each formulation. This means that a little really does go a long, long way. The result is saving money by significantly cutting down on cost per use.

Check back daily for a different review from the Cool Mom Guide Goes Green series.  Today’s review is of the Baby Shampoo, and I’ve done a great Video Review to show how great it is on my 9 month old baby! (more…)

While I’m at it, I thought I’d mention the Kid Kleen Bath Blizzard. My toddler never gets sick. Once a year, maybe. When he finally does, though, it’s always horrible. This year, he got hit with 2 viruses at once. The 4 day fever (you all read about here) and a stomach bug that left the house (and one Detroit airport bathroom) a mess.

We bathe Jake in the garden tub in the master bath. He always wants lots of bubbles (who can blame him) and we do our best to oblige. We pour in half a bottle of the bubble bath and then spend the rest of the time swishing our hands around and blasting the water to generate a good amount of bubbles. (more…)
