EcoTools Review and Giveaway



It's Spring which means a lot of us try to do our part in taking better care of the Earth...particularly in April with Earth Day. Each year that passes I find myself going more and more 'green' with the products I use. This is to not only use safer products for myself and my family, but also the environment. That's why I love EcoTools and who they are as a company.

For those who missed my EcoTOOLS cosmetic brushes review back in March will have to check it out. These products are amazing! And, for those who aren't very familiar with EcoTOOLS, here's a recap....EcoTOOLS offers a huge selection of beauty and bath & body supplies/tools. They are a brand that not only makes it easy to achieve the look you are going for, but also concentrate on going green and making sure their products are eco-friendly as well. Their cosmetic brushes feature cruelty-free taklon bristles, recycled aluminum ferrules and bamboo handles. EcoTOOLS is truly passionate about beautifying the earth and its customers with the products they offer.

As pioneer in environmentally-friendly cosmetic and bath & body care products that are affordable, effective and eco-fabulous...EcoTools makes it simple to green your beauty routine without sacrifice. I've learned that after trying their cosmetic brushes and couldn't have been more excited when asked to review their new body mist and EcoPouf! What a great way to start the season with eco-friendly essentials for a spring clean and cleanse!

When the EcoPouf Bath Sponge and body mist arrived on my doorstep, I couldn't wait to try them out! Since reviewing a couple of products from EcoTools a while back, I've spread the word to many people I know and have even purchased several items as gifts for family and friends. I had a feeling I would like these new products just as much...and I was right!

I tend to be very sensitive when it comes to smells. I get headaches easily, so I wondered if the Passion For Change Body Mist was going to be something I would like. After using it, I could tell it was different. It did not give me a headache and I felt good knowing it was good for me to be using on my body, as well as for the environment! It comes in a 6 fl. oz bottle and is made with organic botanical extracts. I really love it and find it to be a refreshing thing to wear almost every day! I love that it's:

  • 98% from nature
  • Paraben Free
  • Phthalate Free
  • Not Tested on Animals
  • In a recyclable bottle
The EcoPouf is full and soft...pretty much one of the nicest I've seen or used. I was impressed with the fact that this item is the World's first 100% recycled plastic bath sponge. It's large size is great for an all-over clean and produces a very nice lather. One thing I noticed about it is how quickly it dries.


Everything about the EcoPouf Bath Sponge is so great...I would definitely consider purchasing another one at some point...not to mention their other great new additions for 2010.
Buy It: You can purchase the EcoTools EcoPouf Bath Sponge for $1.99 and the Passion For Change Body Mist for $5.99.

Win It: EcoTools has offered TWO readers an EcoPouf Bath Sponge!
