I’m going to need this to be a series showing clean products for every room in the house. I’m slowly switching to cleaner products so this was super helpful!
The problem with so many of these natural products is that they are way more expensive. For homes that do not have a lot of income, it can be very difficult to be green.
I completely agree. I try to use green cleaning products as much as I can, but with rising prices, it’s getting difficult. I’d like to switch to laundry strips instead of liquid Tide, but the budget just won’t accommodate that right now. The same goes for other things too. I’d love to eat more organic and local foods rather than factory made foods, but they are much more expensive, so I end up buying the stuff that comes from factories, who don’t use green procedures at all to produce their food. I’d also love to get an electric car for groceries and such, but I do a lot of long highway drives and haul stuff, so I drive my truck everywhere. I can’t afford two vehicles at the moment. So while I would love to be green, because we HAVE to right now or else our world will die, I financially cannot and it sucks.
I’m a bit confused by this video. I’m all for choosing green and organic products but some of these… idk it seems like homemade toothpaste won’t work as well without fluoride? Everything has chemicals, so what’s good vs bad?
I really wish more of the "clean" and "free" products that companies sell were more affordable. Like, I love the idea of using a glass spray bottle but there is no way I'm paying $12 for a bottle. And the branch basics products are quite expensive as well. Just my tow cents (as that's all I have 😛).
You can make a lot of products yourself out of cheap supermarket staples, also a green alternative to glass bottles is to reuse your plastic spray bottles so they don't get thrown away!
Ro, first and foremost, your hair and outfit are fabulous! love it! Secondly, your passion for organization and keeping green is inspirational. Well done!
Hi Rosanna! Thank you so much for featuring a Fontana candle in your video! We're so thrilled that one of our products is a part of your nontoxic journey! All of our products are third-party certified Nontoxic by MADE SAFE so you can be assured that they are as clean as we claim! We also have soap, lip balm, and bath soaks in your favorite essential oil scents if you are looking for safe alternatives for those too!
This video disappointed me because of the misleading use of "detox". I am not trying to argue that a persons body more/less easily picks up and removes *certain* chemicals, that is very true! The best way could be to remove the chemicals your body has a hard time with (with doctors/apothecary advice), but things that claim to be toxic free rarely are. Chemicals toxicity is dependant on dosage ("clean" products usually have a harder time regulating that) and everything consists of chemicals. Even the purest water is a chemical. I do believe in removing chemicals that truly is harming you (but that doesn't mean it is harming everybody else too) and the best "detox" is to drink water and having a liver (or other blood filter). I am not here to argue with people, I just want to inform that this detox trend can be risky.
for toothpaste, make sure it still has fluoride in it. my mom went on a chemical detox kick and moved to a toothpaste that didn't have flupride and got her first cavities in her adult life 😱
I live in a small village in the UK and our water doesn’t have as many things like fluoride added into it as other places in the UK (as part of the filtering and cleansing of the water) and I used to get cavities all the time. Me and a few other people in the village had to get tooth paste with extra added fluoride in it to stop our teeth from rotting 🤦🏻♀️
Yes i agree, as a dental hygienist this ws hard to watch... please use the correct recommended toothpaste to take care of ur teeth n prevent future cavities from occurring.. wud nt recommend ppl making toothpaste at home..
@@piyumik9841 I think people get scared when certain chemicals are in our day to day items but what people don’t realise is some of the chemicals is stuff our body needs like fluoride for out teeth! As I said most places in the UK have fluoride added to the water but my village and houses that get their water from natural springs doesn’t so tooth decay can be a problem in those areas/houses.
You also find a recipe without baking soda in it. Baking soda acts as an abrasive so it wears away your enamel and will make you far more prone to cavities in the long run
@@choczynski honestly for the most part I was just thinking about how bad it would taste with that much baking soda in it 🤮 I don’t even like the taste of normal tooth paste with added baking soda for “whitening” never mind without the mint taste to cover up the nasty 🤣
I hardly ever comment on anything but I love this please turn it into Series around the house. It could be done with recipes for cleaning, and health for every day uses
Menstrual disks with the finger notch are great as a reusable period product! There’s no suction like with a cup, easier to remove bc of the notch, and so much more comfortable than tampons (in my opinion)! I really recommend the Saalt Disk!!!
Your videos are very helpful and informative!! Thanks for always thinking of us your (fans) we appreciate your helpful tips and advice that you give us Rosanna!! Your always so thoughtful of others and always willing and helping♻️🩷 Your a wonderful human being😊
I know this may come off as extremely rude.. but are you worried about fillers that are in your body? Honest question…? This is NOT meant to be mean, I think what you are doing is awesome and inspiring as heck.
Haven’t watched nerdy nummies since I was a teen and seeing how you look now is such a huge transition you look so good girl!!… I love 💕 it your truly radiant
Ro, gotta be honest...I hate cleaning and organizing! I consider myself chaotically organized but I know where everything is! You're making me wanna be more organized and I don't hate it! I'm probably gonna make it chaotic still, but still organized!
You should find a toothpaste recipe without baking soda in it. Baking soda acts as an abrasive so it wears away your enamel and will make you far more prone to cavities in the long run
Bicarb Soda is abrasive, not good for your teeths enamel, my friend is a dental nurse and I asked her about this when I wanted to try and she said absolutely don't do it.
Viori is amazing! I’ve almost exclusively switched to just using that on my hair since last December, if you are looking for a dry shampoo they also make one as well! It is another one that is the powder form, you could check it out😊
That’s great for you I am sure it is very good to use less toxic products and other things. But unfortunately I can’t afford to do that on a fixed income I have to buy the bad for you products because it’s all I can afford. Thanks for the information maybe later in life I can do all this stuff
Hi Ro! I’m not sure if this has already been mentioned, but beeswax candles are actually the healthiest and greenest candles to have in your home. While soybean farming practices can leave behind risk of exposure to pesticides, beeswax candles are biodegradable and do not go through any chemical processing. They are environmentally friendly and non-toxic, burn brighter and cleaner (less soot due to burning hotter). When burned, beeswax produce negative ions which attract positive ions (dust, pollen, mild, door, etc.) so they help clean the air, all while giving off a gentle, sweet scent. They are the only kind of candles I use in my home, and you can support many small bee farms in your switch. Please let us know if you try them!
My family uses who gives a crap toilet paper. We've been supporting them for at least 4 years and we love it! I freaked out a little when I saw the wrapping 😂
Hi Ro, to help you with some more eco friendly period products try using reusable pads or reusable period panties. I have made the switch a couple years ago and I will never go back. They are so much better for you and the planet 🌎 ❤ I highly recommend them😊
Rosanna, this video is incredibly well done and informative! All of the effort and research you put into this shows! Thank you for sharing ❤️ Been here since the og nerdy nummies days and have loved watching you grow as a creator! 😍
Ro! I also tried several different menstrual cups without success! I ended up switching to menstrual DISCS, which insert more similarly to tampons when rolled and eliminate waste! Reusable and easy to clean! ^_^
I’ve been working on this myself and one of the best makeup brands I’ve found for clean makeup is well people, honest is pretty good too. I actually found a mascara I love more than any of the others I’ve had before and it is clean it’s the L’Oréal voluminous noir balm, it has a little icon on the front that is is 99% natural and I love it!
Love this video!!! Some tips and brands I recommend for bathroom products are •Getting a bidet for your toilet! Saves you so much toilet paper! •Kitsch makes awesome shampoo bars! •Bend Soap & Chagrin Valley also make amazing bar soaps that can be used as shampoo, body bars, face wash & handsoap! Plus they make lots of other great products as well! •Green and Gorgeous Organics make dry shampoo powders that are my all-time favorite!
I just started using NATIVE Moisture Shampoo (Peach) and what a difference in my hair!! I LOVE my hair now! No frizzing, dryness, and honestly, it stays cleaner longer! Tried NATIVE deodorant, but like you, it just didn't work on me. Still looking for something better. Thank you for doing this vid as I'm also trying to detox my family's life. Would love more videos like this and maybe do a couple for the bedrooms and kitchen? Thanks, and love you all! 💖💖💖
If native doesn't work ,maybe try Lume! I have really strong BO, and it is the only brand that truly works. It's amazing, the body wash, deodorant etc are acidified and it works better than any other brand I've tried
Glad you liked it! I noticed a big difference in my blood levels (testing for toxins) by slowly detoxing what I can. It truly does help in the long run!
@@RosannaPansino I've also started checking out like carpet cleaners and floor care products as well. Those have the most disgusting chemicals that are building up. I inherited an older home from my parents and I'm trying not to imagine all the ick that's in the carpet and flooring that is getting into our bodies. I'll have to talk to my MD about the testing for toxins. I do have a well-visit coming up soon.
@@ginacastle7337 Its well worth taking the time to do the tests. They can test for so many things now. And yes, many cleaning chemicals (especially in carpets) will stay around for a very long time and you can absorb them into your system. Its a great thing to think about!
@@RosannaPansino Definitely will do and thank you so much for your time! My daughter and I love you, Mike, the pups, and all your family so much! Looking forward to your next videos (and suggestions)! Stay healthy & safe! 💖
I love that you're detoxing all of your products. I've been doing this slowly since 2018 because I switched to only using cruelty-free products (which is a lot of research since most companies lie about it or sell in countries where it's mandated by law) and so the products are usually better for the environment without the toxins as well. Please do a makeup video when you have new products! Also, I've seen ads for that shampoo bar on IG and it looks so fancy and cool. I want to try it
Am I awake at 3am watching this whole video so I can start gutting my own home? Yes. Yes, I am. Thank you so much for this informative video, Ro!! Me and my mom have started that switch a while back, but the candles, bathroom sprays, paper towels, and toilet paper (even the feminine products!) we're still working on 😅😅 I can't wait to start making these switches. Both for our health and the earth!
Thanks, Ro! So many great tips, and my daughter, who is almost 8, just loves you and all of your videos! She was scanning our stuff on the app, just like you. ❤❤
I would recommend to use simple which I use for my dry sensitive skin. Which is ideal for people who are allergic to tree tea oil and I use E45 if you get any dry skin on your body or I use it for my eczema, Also would try using oatmeal in the bath which helps to get rid off rashes you might have, finally I use Sanex soap for the bath which is good for those people or get bad reactions from using their soaps and is great for people who may have got sensitive skin.
Period underwear is also a thing. They're very useful. I don't use toxic stuff in the bathroom and haven't for many, many years. But yes, once you really find out how much bad stuff is out there it's very eye opening.
Hypochlorous Acid is your best friend. It’s a disinfectant used in hospital surgeries but is food contact safe because it breaks down into saline salt water. It’s actually the main ingredient in Tower28 face rescue spray as well as common piercing cleaner sprays.
Thanks so much for this video! I love the make your tooth paste idea - my husband and I have been searching for a green-toothpaste option. Oh and don't worry, Tom's deodorant didn't work for me either. I'm trying Little Seed Farm so we'll see how that goes! Thanks again for all of these sustainable tips!
Thank you Rosanna for this video, I'm very happy to see you inspire low waste movement! For the TP, you can also check Tushy, a bidet that adapts to almost every toilet :) And for deodorant, you also have easy recipes to do them ;)
Hey Ro hopefully it’s not too late but I love watching and doing your baking videos! I want to know if you could make an all buttercream birthday cake so I can make for my sister.
I have been trying to go more non toxic for a while, I got rid of anything I could with lots of fragrance, and candles all together. Not only are candles bad for you to burn inside, no matter how natural. They actually cause a lot of a/C problems. I'm in fl and my neighbor had her ac guy come to do a maintenance and he didn't even walk inside and he knew she burned candles. He told her the biggest thing he would recommend is to stop immediately. Also I stick to showers, baths waste way too much water. The natural deodorant quest is different for everyone, lume is ok, we're trying lafes right now so 🤞. I've brought in snake plants or mother in laws tongue or whatever they call them, I like them, not too much maintenance 😊
Hi Ro, I love your channel. I also love your house, it's so beautiful. Plus, I'm from Seattle WA too. Going to downtown and going in the space needle was my favorite thing to do.
Great stuff, Ro. So many people don't think twice about all the toxins in every day products. It's great you're sharing this info to such a wide audience. Have you thought about doing any research on the toxins in animal products you bake with and consume?
I've been trying to go greener with my care products so this was super helpful! I started with my soap and shampoo. I am allergic to a preservative that companies like to put in their soap/lotion products so I have to be really careful with what I put on my skin. Shout out to Luna Lavender Farms for their soap, all natural and makes my skin feel clean and soft. The shampoo/conditioner I am currently using is a coconut cream shamp/cond by Renpure. I found it at Grocery Outlet. It's okay, I like that it's all natural, but it doesn't make my hair feel as soft as my previous one did (I forgot the name of it and the store didn't sell it anymore), so I'm looking for a better one.
I use fluoride Free toothpaste as well, I recommend Dr. Brite, they use hydroxyapatite instead and I’ve never had a cavity. (I’m a allergic to Fluoride)
So on the menstrual side of things i was also a tampons girly but i have since moved over to the disc. The disc is a great alternative to the cup which has a similar function except it doesn't have suction and its a lot easier to insert and also remove
Once you try the organicup you will never go back. Gets rid of storage issues as well. 🎉 very convenient, no headaches because of the water draining tampons. Otherwise, I'm impressed. I will definitely do the toothpaste, with fluoride.
It really is ridiculous the terrible and toxic things companies are putting into their products. Thanks Ro for this very informative a helpful video. Love you content.☺🌳
Its always a good day when we see the lovely Rossana upload a brand new UA-cam video. One of my favorite youtubers ever i love you so much. Thano you for inspiring us Ro. You the best
A really good non toxic and green cleaning product is a company called Norwex, they have all kinds of cloths and cleaning products that you just wet down and it has silver weaved in the fibers so it holds the germs in and you can use it on multiple surfaces without transfering the germs. Then yk wash, you can just do a load of them with the Norwex detergent
Native has a whole line of beauty products you should check out. They have shampoos, conditioners, deodorants that are really good and that are made in containers made from recycled materials and they also make body washes that are made from natural ingredients like their shampoos, conditioners and deodorants. They do not contain chemicals at all. The Tarte makeup line is made of Amazonian clay and is all organic and has no chemicals and no preservatives in it at all you should check it out.
I’m partial to the Dr. Squatch brand of men’s line soaps and such and they just introduced a women’s line under the brand Jukebox - pretty good ingredients and seem good
For the sunscreen I use green people’s one. It’s reef safe completely organic, animal cruelty free, vegan and I think a few other things, but it is more expensive.btw love you Ro ❤
Ro, I've been looking at you for years. We're the same age, and the older you get, the prettier you get! I've always wanted to be as beautiful as you 😊 you're just great!
Rosanna, how did you find out or what test were done to find out that your body doesn't detox chemicals as well as others? I think I need to have that same test done.
I have used viori for 2 years now they last about 2 months a bar for our house hold my hair has never been fuller, softer and I lose a lot less hair now looooooove them
Thank you for sharing. Remember to have a good air purifier that filters VOCs and other toxic gases (I suggest the IQ Air MultiGas) and to buy organic and naturally dyed clothes.
I absolutely love this video!! Way to go on being more healthier!! I use Little Seed Farm’s deodorant. One of my faves. I also use branch basics! I love my Fontana candles! I use viori as well! It does so much for my hair! With dry shampoo be careful of butane as well. It’s horrible for us to breathe in. If I use anything that has it in it my air doctor air purifier kicks into high gear! Definitely would like to see more videos on how you’re detoxing!
Lovely video and great that you put in so much homework before buying things. Now that we are talking sustainability, it's probably better to also reduce the number of products to use. Why have a toothpaste and a tooth tablet? Why have a shampoo bar and a shampoo? ❤
The water and vinegar window cleaner is really old school and I think about 5 generations of my family have used it. In the UK a brand called "STARDROPS" (a quite old brand too) sell it in a spray bottle, but my family have always just bought regular bottles (as in food kind) in the supermarket, refilled spray bottles or used in buckets(mix with dish soap too if you've got really dirty glass.) I use diluted vinegar to clean produce too by either adding some neat vinegar to a full sink or spraying them with diluted vinegar and wiping them down. Have you tried making your own fabreeze by disolving baking soda in boiling water, letting it cool, pouring into a spray bottle and adding essential oils? You can use it as room spray too if you add witch hazel/ vodka etc in there so it might help in bathroom situations. One thing I would note is that oils that have a colour to them can stain surfaces so be careful there and that its advisable to spray soft surfaces like curtains or bath mats to avoid oil slicks. Leave the essential oils out and it will still deodorise fabrics without adding additional smell. I use it without essential oils on my dog's blankets so they don't stink the place out or irritate their skin since one is a breed known for having sensitive skin. I'm also looking into making my own reed diffusers using oil of some kind, witch hazel and essential oil so I can reuse a decorative reed diffuser glass that I really like and don't want to throw out and as a cost saving measure since even the really 'toxic' ones are kind of expensive.
if ur still looking for organic candles there is this lovely small business called lily lous aromas its this shop thats sell non toxic organic candles and i love ur videos
Who else thinks she should release a baking kit for beginners? I have been watching her for years but l could never find the right supplies. Ro, please read this and it would really help your beginner baker fans❤
Interesting video. I'm putting some of your organizational products on my Christmas wish list this year! I do want to know: Will you be switching out your clothes like you did your towels?
Your bathroom is the size of our apartment. I am not joking whatsoever. Ah ha! I LOVE Not Your Mothers shampoo! I use it all the time! The smell is wonderful! And all natural! We’ve been doing the green thing since I was a kid. VERY sensitive skin, lots of allergies to pretty much everything, and we really don’t want nasty things even near our bodies. Quite expensive so we’ve had to slow down for budgeting reasons. As soon as it opens up again we shall continue! A lot of very interesting tidbits about toxics and plastics in things you wouldn’t even think had them in them! I really did not know that toilet paper had plastics in them! Yikes. Those organizational bins would be great to use for sorting LEGOs! Do they come with lids? Would be very nice to be as orderly as you are Ro! I’m more a chaos organized person, looks like a mess but I know exactly where things are! If we had more space in this small apartment we could totally reorganize! Alas, the space in here isn’t great for 4 people now (used to be 3) and feeling very cramped all over the place. One of these days we’re getting an actual house with the appropriate amount of space for 4 people! This apartment is for 2 people not 4 and it’s half the size of the previous one we had in 2019 when we moved. A 3 bedroom, 2 bath would be perfect for us! And plenty of space for everyone! Bigger rooms, an actual kitchen/dining room, a real living room, a place to display all my nerdy things instead of keeping them in plastic totes! I am quite jealous of how big your house is Ro! Even our old house could fit in there 3x times over! Your house is one of the coolest I’ve ever seen!

The problem with so many of these natural products is that they are way more expensive. For homes that do not have a lot of income, it can be very difficult to be green.
That’s what I was thinking. My family is middle class but we cannot afford these natural products either.
I commented in the main section some GREAT brands I found while on a budget in college!! :))
So true!!!
I completely agree. I try to use green cleaning products as much as I can, but with rising prices, it’s getting difficult. I’d like to switch to laundry strips instead of liquid Tide, but the budget just won’t accommodate that right now.
The same goes for other things too. I’d love to eat more organic and local foods rather than factory made foods, but they are much more expensive, so I end up buying the stuff that comes from factories, who don’t use green procedures at all to produce their food.
I’d also love to get an electric car for groceries and such, but I do a lot of long highway drives and haul stuff, so I drive my truck everywhere. I can’t afford two vehicles at the moment.
So while I would love to be green, because we HAVE to right now or else our world will die, I financially cannot and it sucks.

Tried NATIVE deodorant, but like you, it just didn't work on me. Still looking for something better. Thank you for doing this vid as I'm also trying to detox my family's life. Would love more videos like this and maybe do a couple for the bedrooms and kitchen? Thanks, and love you all! 💖💖💖
If native doesn't work ,maybe try Lume! I have really strong BO, and it is the only brand that truly works. It's amazing, the body wash, deodorant etc are acidified and it works better than any other brand I've tried
Glad you liked it! I noticed a big difference in my blood levels (testing for toxins) by slowly detoxing what I can. It truly does help in the long run!
@@RosannaPansino I've also started checking out like carpet cleaners and floor care products as well. Those have the most disgusting chemicals that are building up. I inherited an older home from my parents and I'm trying not to imagine all the ick that's in the carpet and flooring that is getting into our bodies. I'll have to talk to my MD about the testing for toxins. I do have a well-visit coming up soon.
@@ginacastle7337 Its well worth taking the time to do the tests. They can test for so many things now. And yes, many cleaning chemicals (especially in carpets) will stay around for a very long time and you can absorb them into your system. Its a great thing to think about!
@@RosannaPansino Definitely will do and thank you so much for your time! My daughter and I love you, Mike, the pups, and all your family so much! Looking forward to your next videos (and suggestions)! Stay healthy & safe! 💖
ROSANNA WITH THE PLANT WAS THE BEST PART!
I love that you're detoxing all of your products. I've been doing this slowly since 2018 because I switched to only using cruelty-free products (which is a lot of research since most companies lie about it or sell in countries where it's mandated by law) and so the products are usually better for the environment without the toxins as well. Please do a makeup video when you have new products! Also, I've seen ads for that shampoo bar on IG and it looks so fancy and cool. I want to try it
Am I awake at 3am watching this whole video so I can start gutting my own home? Yes. Yes, I am.
Thank you so much for this informative video, Ro!! Me and my mom have started that switch a while back, but the candles, bathroom sprays, paper towels, and toilet paper (even the feminine products!) we're still working on 😅😅 I can't wait to start making these switches. Both for our health and the earth!
Candles is a really important one as you're breathing in the smoke/smell. It's a great and easy place to start!
Thanks, Ro! So many great tips, and my daughter, who is almost 8, just loves you and all of your videos! She was scanning our stuff on the app, just like you. ❤❤
I would recommend to use simple which I use for my dry sensitive skin. Which is ideal for people who are allergic to tree tea oil and I use E45 if you get any dry skin on your body or I use it for my eczema,
Also would try using oatmeal in the bath which helps to get rid off rashes you might have, finally I use Sanex soap for the bath which is good for those people or get bad reactions from using their soaps and is great for people who may have got sensitive skin.
Your channel has become my top fave. You’re so genuine, talented and hilarious.
Period underwear is also a thing. They're very useful. I don't use toxic stuff in the bathroom and haven't for many, many years. But yes, once you really find out how much bad stuff is out there it's very eye opening.
Hypochlorous Acid is your best friend. It’s a disinfectant used in hospital surgeries but is food contact safe because it breaks down into saline salt water. It’s actually the main ingredient in Tower28 face rescue spray as well as common piercing cleaner sprays.
You always give the best advice Ro! Love you girl!🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks so much for this video! I love the make your tooth paste idea - my husband and I have been searching for a green-toothpaste option. Oh and don't worry, Tom's deodorant didn't work for me either. I'm trying Little Seed Farm so we'll see how that goes! Thanks again for all of these sustainable tips!
Thank you Rosanna for this video, I'm very happy to see you inspire low waste movement!
For the TP, you can also check Tushy, a bidet that adapts to almost every toilet :)
And for deodorant, you also have easy recipes to do them ;)
Hey Ro hopefully it’s not too late but I love watching and doing your baking videos! I want to know if you could make an all buttercream birthday cake so I can make for my sister.
I have been trying to go more non toxic for a while, I got rid of anything I could with lots of fragrance, and candles all together. Not only are candles bad for you to burn inside, no matter how natural. They actually cause a lot of a/C problems. I'm in fl and my neighbor had her ac guy come to do a maintenance and he didn't even walk inside and he knew she burned candles. He told her the biggest thing he would recommend is to stop immediately. Also I stick to showers, baths waste way too much water. The natural deodorant quest is different for everyone, lume is ok, we're trying lafes right now so 🤞. I've brought in snake plants or mother in laws tongue or whatever they call them, I like them, not too much maintenance 😊
Hi Ro, I love your channel.
I also love your house, it's so beautiful.
Plus, I'm from Seattle WA too. Going to downtown and going in the space needle was my favorite thing to do.
Great stuff, Ro. So many people don't think twice about all the toxins in every day products. It's great you're sharing this info to such a wide audience. Have you thought about doing any research on the toxins in animal products you bake with and consume?
Rosanna bakes food and toothpaste! 💟
Great vid Ro! Thanks for making these. Maybe for a 24 hour challenge you can do “24 hours being my sister” lol. Have an amazing day goodbye! ❤
I mean nine years, I have been watching you I always loved your UA-cam channel
I remember watching your vids when I was younger you’re the most sweetest UA-camr everrrr💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I've been trying to go greener with my care products so this was super helpful! I started with my soap and shampoo. I am allergic to a preservative that companies like to put in their soap/lotion products so I have to be really careful with what I put on my skin. Shout out to Luna Lavender Farms for their soap, all natural and makes my skin feel clean and soft. The shampoo/conditioner I am currently using is a coconut cream shamp/cond by Renpure. I found it at Grocery Outlet. It's okay, I like that it's all natural, but it doesn't make my hair feel as soft as my previous one did (I forgot the name of it and the store didn't sell it anymore), so I'm looking for a better one.
I use fluoride Free toothpaste as well, I recommend Dr. Brite, they use hydroxyapatite instead and I’ve never had a cavity. (I’m a allergic to Fluoride)
So on the menstrual side of things i was also a tampons girly but i have since moved over to the disc. The disc is a great alternative to the cup which has a similar function except it doesn't have suction and its a lot easier to insert and also remove
Once you try the organicup you will never go back. Gets rid of storage issues as well. 🎉 very convenient, no headaches because of the water draining tampons. Otherwise, I'm impressed. I will definitely do the toothpaste, with fluoride.
If these changes help you go for it!
Don't just be putting coconut oil in your hair...talk to a hairstylist first.
It really is ridiculous the terrible and toxic things companies are putting into their products. Thanks Ro for this very informative a helpful video. Love you content.☺🌳
i havent returned to your channel in YEARS. and you. havent. aged. holy
Another brand to try, which is a great for your skin care is mad hippie, as well as for your candles California candle Co.
Its always a good day when we see the lovely Rossana upload a brand new UA-cam video. One of my favorite youtubers ever i love you so much. Thano you for inspiring us Ro. You the best
A really good non toxic and green cleaning product is a company called Norwex, they have all kinds of cloths and cleaning products that you just wet down and it has silver weaved in the fibers so it holds the germs in and you can use it on multiple surfaces without transfering the germs. Then yk wash, you can just do a load of them with the Norwex detergent
For periods try the brand Hello. It was my first switch and will never look back!
This was very helpful and seeing other rooms get detoxed would be great!
Native has a whole line of beauty products you should check out. They have shampoos, conditioners, deodorants that are really good and that are made in containers made from recycled materials and they also make body washes that are made from natural ingredients like their shampoos, conditioners and deodorants. They do not contain chemicals at all. The Tarte makeup line is made of Amazonian clay and is all organic and has no chemicals and no preservatives in it at all you should check it out.
Also some of best plants to remove and purify air are snake plants. They're amazing
Those who didn't come from tiktok, are allowed to to like this comment!
Once again, another masterpiece of a video!
(P.S Soooo excited to see the film studio!!!)
That's good ❤ wonderful job Rosanna.
I’m partial to the Dr. Squatch brand of men’s line soaps and such and they just introduced a women’s line under the brand Jukebox - pretty good ingredients and seem good
For the sunscreen I use green people’s one. It’s reef safe completely organic, animal cruelty free, vegan and I think a few other things, but it is more expensive.btw love you Ro ❤
I always check out the EWG database before considering any bath & body product
Ro, I've been looking at you for years. We're the same age, and the older you get, the prettier you get! I've always wanted to be as beautiful as you 😊 you're just great!
Rosanna, how did you find out or what test were done to find out that your body doesn't detox chemicals as well as others? I think I need to have that same test done.
GOALS! RO IS MY QUEEN 👑💕
Your amazing, been with you since 2011, such awesome growth you've made, keep kicking ass
I have used viori for 2 years now they last about 2 months a bar for our house hold my hair has never been fuller, softer and I lose a lot less hair now looooooove them
I did actually shop and I got the pumpkin spice sweats and I really wanna get a mini coconut so let me know when they’re out again
LOVE these vids! Thanks Ro!!! I’m jumping on the organization train!
Thank you for sharing. Remember to have a good air purifier that filters VOCs and other toxic gases (I suggest the IQ Air MultiGas) and to buy organic and naturally dyed clothes.
Yes! Thank you so much for making this video!!!
Rosanna nows how to make a 10/10 video!!! ( love u so much!)
I absolutely love this video!! Way to go on being more healthier!! I use Little Seed Farm’s deodorant. One of my faves. I also use branch basics! I love my Fontana candles! I use viori as well! It does so much for my hair! With dry shampoo be careful of butane as well. It’s horrible for us to breathe in. If I use anything that has it in it my air doctor air purifier kicks into high gear! Definitely would like to see more videos on how you’re detoxing!
Lovely video and great that you put in so much homework before buying things. Now that we are talking sustainability, it's probably better to also reduce the number of products to use. Why have a toothpaste and a tooth tablet? Why have a shampoo bar and a shampoo? ❤
“Ho Ho Ho loves it” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 cracked me up
The water and vinegar window cleaner is really old school and I think about 5 generations of my family have used it. In the UK a brand called "STARDROPS" (a quite old brand too) sell it in a spray bottle, but my family have always just bought regular bottles (as in food kind) in the supermarket, refilled spray bottles or used in buckets(mix with dish soap too if you've got really dirty glass.) I use diluted vinegar to clean produce too by either adding some neat vinegar to a full sink or spraying them with diluted vinegar and wiping them down.
Have you tried making your own fabreeze by disolving baking soda in boiling water, letting it cool, pouring into a spray bottle and adding essential oils? You can use it as room spray too if you add witch hazel/ vodka etc in there so it might help in bathroom situations. One thing I would note is that oils that have a colour to them can stain surfaces so be careful there and that its advisable to spray soft surfaces like curtains or bath mats to avoid oil slicks. Leave the essential oils out and it will still deodorise fabrics without adding additional smell. I use it without essential oils on my dog's blankets so they don't stink the place out or irritate their skin since one is a breed known for having sensitive skin. I'm also looking into making my own reed diffusers using oil of some kind, witch hazel and essential oil so I can reuse a decorative reed diffuser glass that I really like and don't want to throw out and as a cost saving measure since even the really 'toxic' ones are kind of expensive.
this video gave me anxiety, I’m just trying to exist…
Wow the editing is so good
if ur still looking for organic candles there is this lovely small business called lily lous aromas its this shop thats sell non toxic organic candles and i love ur videos
I’ve bought them all & they are helpful😁
I love watching you videos ❤❤❤
Who else thinks she should release a baking kit for beginners? I have been watching her for years but l could never find the right supplies. Ro, please read this and it would really help your beginner baker fans❤
Interesting video. I'm putting some of your organizational products on my Christmas wish list this year! I do want to know: Will you be switching out your clothes like you did your towels?
Loved this video!! Up next, laundry and kitchen products!!!
Fontana candle company has amazing non- toxic candles!
Natracare tampons are great, ive used them for many years. My daughter uses them too.
Love u Rosanne good luck with whatever you are doing❤❤❤❤
Your bathroom is the size of our apartment. I am not joking whatsoever.
Ah ha! I LOVE Not Your Mothers shampoo! I use it all the time! The smell is wonderful! And all natural!
We’ve been doing the green thing since I was a kid. VERY sensitive skin, lots of allergies to pretty much everything, and we really don’t want nasty things even near our bodies. Quite expensive so we’ve had to slow down for budgeting reasons. As soon as it opens up again we shall continue!
A lot of very interesting tidbits about toxics and plastics in things you wouldn’t even think had them in them! I really did not know that toilet paper had plastics in them! Yikes.
Those organizational bins would be great to use for sorting LEGOs! Do they come with lids?
Would be very nice to be as orderly as you are Ro! I’m more a chaos organized person, looks like a mess but I know exactly where things are! If we had more space in this small apartment we could totally reorganize! Alas, the space in here isn’t great for 4 people now (used to be 3) and feeling very cramped all over the place.
One of these days we’re getting an actual house with the appropriate amount of space for 4 people! This apartment is for 2 people not 4 and it’s half the size of the previous one we had in 2019 when we moved. A 3 bedroom, 2 bath would be perfect for us! And plenty of space for everyone! Bigger rooms, an actual kitchen/dining room, a real living room, a place to display all my nerdy things instead of keeping them in plastic totes!
I am quite jealous of how big your house is Ro! Even our old house could fit in there 3x times over! Your house is one of the coolest I’ve ever seen!
Thank you, this made my day!
