Go Green, Get Clean for Earth Day!

Let's celebrate Earth Day by learning about and putting to the test one of the first official Earth Day products--Basic H by Shaklee!

We firmly believe that cleaning your home (or office) should NOT involve dirtying the Earth. With Shaklee's Basic H2, you get a cleaner that works safely and for less money than other products, even vinegar! Do you use vinegar to clean? Learn why vinegar isn't cleaning as well as you think it is. Let us wow you with a demonstration of Basic H.

Would you rather scrub your tub with a bleach-based product or with a product that uses ground cherry pits as a key ingredient? Come test out Scour Off!

Want to play some Toxic Holdem with us? You might be surprised to learn just what is lurking in your household cleaners.
