You may recall me gushing about Branch Basics — both the product and company — to you before.

I actually developed a girl crush/deep appreciation for the ladies behind the product before I ever even tried it: I heard them speak about their motivation to create a “human safe” cleaning product… they talked a bit about body burden (the whole purpose of this here blog!)… the rest was history.

But I really fell for Branch Basics when I saw just how effective this product was. When I finally got my hands on it, I used it to clean ALL THE THINGS — you simply adjust the concentration based on the purpose (so handsoap has a different dilution ratio than laundry detergent, for example) — starting with a grease-stained sweatshirt (aren’t grease stains just the worst!?). The results were amazing (grease stain gone!) and I maintain to this day that word “soap” doesn’t really do it justice (it’s just too plebeian).

Now Branch Basics is even more powerful — 2× as strong, to be exact.

This baby was impressive before, but it seems downright unstoppable now. So much so, in fact, that my boyfriend could not believe it was natural.

You see, I’m a very lucky gal who landed herself a sweetie who actually enjoys cleaning (who knew people like that existed!?). One day a few weeks ago he grabbed the new Branch Basics from under the kitchen sink and put it to use. Well afterwards, the bathroom was literally *sparkling* and he was even able to get this obnoxious sticky residue off of the baseboards that had been bothering us since we moved in nearly 2 years ago.

He literally came running over to me and screamed “WHAT IS THIS STUFF!? IS IT NATURAL??”

I looked up and realized he had the new Branch Basics (which at this point I had not yet used) and said “Yes” (uh, duh). Well he flat-out refused to believe it. He then dragged me up off the sofa and proceeded to give me a tour of everything he cleaned. We gawked at the baseboards for at least a couple of minutes…

Eventually I convinced him this miracle soap was in fact natural by telling him to “SMELL IT!” — there is no harsh chemically smell like with conventional chemical-laden products. I also told him he could drink it, but he assured me he was already convinced and that wouldn’t be necessary 🙂

You know I love a great DIY, but I’m not going to lie…

No natural DIY I’ve ever concocted has been this effective. And because life can get pretty messy sometimes, I will always have a bottle of Branch Basics in my house. Always.
