Cleaning is one of those jobs that you either love or hate! I like my home to be clean, but I don’t have a strict cleaning regime and if there’s something more interesting to do then it’s more than likely that the cleaning will get pushed down my job list! I like my cleaning products to have a pleasant scent and I don’t really like using products that contain harmful chemicals, so I was really pleased when a parcel containing La Corvette Home Cleaning Heroes arrived from French Soaps. Made with up to 99.5% naturally derived ingredients, these traditional cleaning products gave me the motivation I needed to finally make a belated start on my spring cleaning!
If like me you haven’t heard of French Soaps before, they are a UK company who were established in 2012. Based in North Yorkshire they specialise in traditional soap products such as Savon de Marseille, Aleppo soap and Provençal vegetable-oil soaps produced using established soapmaking methods. These soaps belong to long traditions of practical soapmaking where plant oils are transformed into durable soaps used for washing, laundry and household cleaning. Their appeal lies in their simplicity: reliable soap made from straightforward ingredients which are designed for everyday use. The company aims to make these traditional soaps more widely available in the United Kingdom while preserving the heritage behind them.
La Corvette Home Cleaning Heroes bundle is a great introduction to La Corvette’s home cleaning range. Made using 99% natural ingredients with herb extracts these products deliver impressive results with little effort – now that’s my sort of cleaning!!
The set contains
Lavender Vinegar Spray – as the name suggests this natural spray is enriched with organic lavender and smells wonderful. The vinegar spray is a real multi purpose product that will descale, clean and shine everything from kettles, shower cubicles and bathroom fittings. All you need to do is spray straight on to surfaces and wipe – no need to rinse making cleaning a quick and easy job.
Sage Glass Cleaning Spray – enriched with organic sage this glass cleaner is so easy to use. A quick spray on windows, mirrors and glass tables, wipe it off and a quick polish with a dry cloth is all I need for sparkling clean mirrors and windows. I normally hate cleaning the shower doors but this spray cuts through the grime and my shower doors have never looked cleaner.
Thyme Degreasing Spray – The Thyme Degreasing spray is a another multipurpose product that dissolves grease and adds shine to all washable surfaces. It’s perfect for cleaning worksurfaces and sinks in the kitchen and bathroom. I was really impressed at how easily it removed the build of soap and grime in the bathroom, leaving everything fresh and sparkly clean.
Olive Black Liquid Soap Spray – this is my favourite of all the products as it can be used in so many different ways. Indoors, it cleans, degreases and shines all types of surfaces: worktops, sinks, cookers etc and it’s also a great product for gardeners as it can be used for protecting and cleaning plants. To clean plants and tackle common garden pests simply mix 5 large spoons with 1 litre of hot water, leave for a few minutes and then spray or wipe the leaves with it. It’s a much better way of getting rid of insects, spiders and aphids. It’s also good at cleaning garden furniture and garden tools too. The real test of it’s cleaning ability came when I used it on the cooker after one of my sons had been frying chicken – and like all teenagers didn’t think to wipe the cooker clean afterwards! A couple of sprays and a quick wipe later, the greasy marks were gone, leaving my cooker looking clean again.
Traditional Mop cloth – made from recycled textile material the traditional fibre mop cloth is perfect for cleaning floors.
Overall I have been really impressed with the La Corvette Home Cleaning Heroes bundle. The products effectively remove dirt and grime from everything from bathroom taps, kitchen worksurfaces, shower screens and more. While slightly more expensive than the everyday supermarket cleaning products they are much kinder to both the environment and skin making them well worth considering for anyone looking for a more natural approach to household cleaning.
