We love to discover natural organic
products for dogs and their people. Bath products are typically laden with
detergents and chemicals, but we have some lines featured that manufacture natural eco-friendly and chemical-free dog grooming products. Aroma Paws, launched in 2008, considers their product line "eco-friendly essentials", and shies away from using the word "spa" in their products. "Frankly, though the products are amazing and indulgent, we don't want to consider this a treat. Using safer, more earth conscious products on ourselves and our animals needs to be a way of life," says Joe Guzman, the firms President. "We've found a way to bring the spa experience home with the rich fragrances from essential oils, combined in an exciting new way."
Partner and chief creative designer Crystalyn Guzman says: "Our goal is to
provide consumers an eco-friendly alternative to the highly processed chemical
based shampoos and grooming aids that are available in all of the mass
merchandise stores. It would be a shame if people couldn't find safe, natural
and eco-friendly products to use on their "furry babies."
I recently gave Alfie a
much needed bath and the Aroma Paws hypo-allergenic formula combined
with some honeysuckle
jasmine dry skin formula is my favorite. Kitty Cindy loves it as
well. Let me tell you how I know.
Cindy (small 6-pounder) is not too
enamored with Alfie (60-pounder), and essentially only tolerates his
presence, demonstrably jealous of the attention he receives. But, when
Gary and I decide to watch a movie in our big screen TV room where there
is a 2-seat small couch, she must be there along with Alfie who squeezes
between us.
Last week, I had just finished a
3-hour grooming session with the boy using my Aroma Paws 2-shampoo
combo. Alfie bound upstairs and I slowly and painfully trudged up as
well. After using this shampoo, I have noticed that the texture of
Alfie’s fur is just like silk. It is just so soft and luxurious that
Gary and I cannot keep our hands off of him after a bath. Alfie always
has a great sheen, but I owe that to the
6000 units of pure Wild Alaskan Sockeye Salmon Oil that he gets daily.
But, it is the shampoo that gives him the most
delicious soft scent and the glorious feel.
Well, we decided to watch a movie
after this long grooming session and therefore the pileup commenced on
our small viewing sofa. I think this was the first time that Cindy was
so close to Alfie after a bathing. Well, all of a sudden she began
sniffing him. She pushed her nose back and forth from his paws up his
legs to his chest. And, then she took her head and burrowed it into his
fur. I almost could not see it any longer as it was almost covered
entirely by Alfie’s fur. You could honestly tell that she was mesmerized
by him. She could not seem to get enough and continued this behavior for
a while. Poor Alfie did not know what to make of it since she is
perpetually slapping him silly over one perceived injustice after
another. So, he froze and just let her proceed. I only wish I had tried
to get it on film, but it never would have captured the sensory
experience that you needed to capture via smell and touch.

Skoy
Cleanup Cloths . . . 100% Biodegradable and Reusable Honestly, we are simply in love with this wonderful
product. The SKOY cloth is a fabulous, absorbent, biodegradable and
natural multi-use cloth made from a unique blend of natural cotton and
cellulose from wood. It is both biodegradable and compostable,
an
independent composting test showing SKOY breaking down
completely within 5 weeks (16 weeks in a city landfill). This re-usable earth friendly cloth is
perfect in your kitchen, bathroom, and on most hard surface areas in your
home or office, such as counter tops, tabletops, bookshelves, and
the floor.
SKOY cloth can be used in place of your sponge, wash
cloth or paper towels. A durable product due to the reusability
factor, it can last months. Using a SKOY cloth is equivalent to using 15 rolls of paper towels
in an average home. The SKOY cloth, which has an absorption factor
of 15x its own weight, is long-lasting because of the washability
feature. The cloth dries quickly, so it is not a breeding ground for
bacteria. And, it is easily cleaned in your washer.
These
cloths are simple to use. Simply wet your SKOY cloth before using,
and then squeeze out the excess
water for optimal absorption. It can be used with popular household
cleaners, but works just as well with water. Be sure to rinse the
Skoy cloth very well when combined with dish soap in order
not to leave residue. Chlorine-use is not
recommended.
How long does a SKOY cloth last?
Since SKOY is
reusable and washable, it can last over a year. A normal life cycle of a SKOY cloth starts in the kitchen to wipe countertops and
table tops. After using the SKOY for a week or two in the
kitchen, it can be renewed in the washer and “downgraded”
for indoor cleaning such as floors, bathrooms, etc. After a
few months in this stage, being washed a couple of times,
the SKOY can then be used for outdoor messes, such as wiping
patio furniture as well as for garage use. This is the great
thing with SKOY, it can be used over and over again.
Will my SKOY cloth be ruined if I wash it often?
No, the SKOY cloth can last over 50 wash cycles if using
a normal detergent. Some customers have used our SKOY cloth
daily for over a year. Having said that, it is always a good
feeling to use a SKOY cloth for the first time, so do not
forget to buy new ones once in a while…
What is the difference between SKOY and a microfiber
cloth? The biggest difference is that SKOY is more
earth-friendly as it is made from natural
materials and is 100% biodegradable, while microfiber cloths
are made from synthetic materials. Our experience also shows
that a SKOY cloth absorbs liquids better than microfiber
cloths, and as such, is superior for kitchen use. Finally, we
think that SKOY feels better in your hand when using it.
How is SKOY a greener cleaning solution than paper
towels, both end up on the landfill and both are
biodegradable? It is true that both SKOY and paper towels end up on the
landfill (unless you have a compost) and that both are
biodegradable. However, there is a big and important
difference — a paper towel you can only use once, while a
SKOY can be used over and over again. In an average
household, each SKOY cloth saves 15 rolls of paper towels!
Why should we be reducing the use of paper towels According to
the
EPA, the USA generates 250 million tons of trash per
year, of which around 34% is paper. That is 85 million tons
of paper waste per year! Reducing paper-towel waste will do
the following:
1. Less paper waste reduces greenhouse gases in
multiple ways.
a) reduces transportation required to haul goods/packages, b) reduces energy needed to make goods/packages, c) reduces fuel consumed in hauling waste to landfill, and d) reduces methane in landfill from decomposing paper.
2. Using less paper towels means cutting down less trees,
which reduces the
risk of deforestation.
According to
American Dryer, 17 trees are consumed to make one ton of paper towels.
4. Using less paper towels means using up less landfill
resources. According to
Arizona State U,
a decrease in U.S. household consumption of just three
rolls per year would save 120,000 tons of waste and $4.1
million in landfill dumping fees.
Watch the test in this second video to see how paper towels and a Skoy Cloth compare. Then, don't waste a moment before
