Why I Love Humble Suds 

This post contains affiliate links

I was introduced to Humble Suds several years ago and quickly fell in love with not only the effectiveness of their products but also how adorably aesthetic they created their packaging. As I learned more about their formulations, how much the founders cared about their health, but also the health of their families and communities as they continued to innovate their products to not only be accessible but also perform well for the needs of a busy household I fell even more in love. A big bonus for me is that they’re also a local Colorado small business and I always love supporting people in my community doing good things for the marketplace! 

Why choose safer household cleaning products? For starters, they often contain harmful and noxious chemicals that can be bad for your health while also dramatically affecting your indoor home air quality. It’s easy to think that the more concentrated and harsh a cleaner is the more effective it is, but when you learn how to clean things well, harsher and more concentrated cleaners are no more effective and can be quite harmful. For my home I prefer gentle yet effective products that are safe to use around even the most vulnerable in my home; pets, small children, immunocompromised, etc. 

Below is a short list of just a few of the harmful chemicals that are found in your average household cleaner.

  • Phthalates (fragrance) – hormone-disrupting and irritating to the respiratory system. Found in household cleaners, laundry soaps, air fresheners, hand soaps, and more.
  • Ammonia – corrosive and toxic to breathe. High exposure from frequent household use can result in irritation of the eyes, nose & mouth, breathing issues, and has been linked to lung damage.
  • Oxalic Acid – corrosive and toxic to breathe in. (the main ingredient in Bar Keeper’s Friend) 
  • Chlorine – considered a pesticide, can cause respiratory distress and when mixed with other chemicals it can create deadly chlorine gas. Found in products like Comet powders, soft scrubs, all-purpose disinfecting sprays, etc. 
  • PERC (perchloroethylene) – a neurotoxin. Found in spot removers, dry cleaning chemicals, and carpet cleaners.

Below is the line-up of my daily Humble Suds go-tos and how I use them in my home! 

  • Humble Suds Scour(™) Cleaning Paste – Just take a tiny bit of the paste on a sturdy cloth and you can tackle anything stuck on or staining a surface! 
  • Illuminate Oxygen + Mineral Powder – the BEST thing I’ve found, without harmful chemicals, to brighten whites and remove stubborn stuck-on stains! While their laundry powder already has some illuminate boosting, this is the full-concentration powder and works incredibly when doing a specific pre-soak! See all my laundry tips.
  • 5 Ingredient Laundry Powder – love this laundry powder. Works amazing. The Sweet Orange + Lemongrass Scent is my favorite, although they also have an unscented one if you prefer no scent at all! 
  • All Purpose Spray – The BEST thing I’ve found to clean my kitchen counters, spray down messes on the floor, or wipe down any other surface in my home! My favorite size is their 16oz amber glass spray bottle and my favorite scent is the Grapefruit + Lemon. I LOVE that they provide REFILLS in small amber glass bottles. Each refill bottle fills TWO 16 oz spray bottles! 
  • Miracle Cleaning Bombs – If you have hard-to-reach, hard-to-clean areas of your home, THESE are what you need! Drop a bomb into your humidifier reservoir and it’ll work out any stuck-on gunk. Have a stained toilet bowl, drop one of these in, let it fizz, swish the product around the bowl, let it rest – overnight for tougher stains – then scrub clean! Have skinny-necked bottles that you can’t fit a bottle brush into? I like to use just a quarter to a half of a bomb for this job. I just gently cut the bomb and drop the small piece into the bottle with some warm water, let it fizz for a while, swish it around, let it soak for stubbornly stuck-on residue, and then rinse clean! They seriously work like a miracle!  

We also use and love their Revival Wood + Leather Balm! The balm is AMAZING on leather shoes and our wood cutting boards! Their gift sets are adorable and some of my all-time favorite things to gift as housewarming gifts for friends & family!

  • I don’t buy fresh berries often. 1. Berries are on the #dirtydozen list 2. Organic berries are usually really expensive 3. Berries spoil so quickly too 4. Frozen organic berries are typically a much more economical route for our family. However, when organic berries are on sale, I can’t help myself and I always grab a few cartons! I’ve also learned that if I don’t clean and de-stem the strawberries right away, they don’t get eaten as quickly and start to mold, which is when I came up with our favorite method for prepping our berries and keeping them fresh! What you need: 1. Quart sized glass jar with lid 2. Small piece of paper towel to fold into the bottom of the jar as an added absorption layer for moisture 3. Sturdy metal straw Prep Strawberries: 1. Thoroughly wash and rinse - I use Trader Joe’s fruit & vegetable wash, but you can also do a capful of distilled white vinegar in a bowl of water if you don’t have a veggie wash on hand. 2. Gently pat dry, no need to completely dry them, although you can, if you have time, to ensure they last even longer. Just lay them on a towel on your counter for about 30mins. I typically skip this and just gently pat dry and move on to de-stemming. 3. Press straw into tip of strawberry upwards thru center to gently pop the top off. 4. Drop into prepped glass jar. Store glass jar in fridge. Ours last up to two weeks cleaned and stored in the fridge this way🙌🏼! If we don’t end up eating thru them by then, I pour them into a Stasher bag and freeze for future use in smoothies or other recipes! Happy Organic Berry season!! Share if you try this method and how it worked for you😘! #cleanlivingmama #cleanlivinginstyle #cleanbecky #glowingskintips #guthealingfood
  • TODAY marks 8 years since I joined Beautycounter as a Brand Advocate (swipe >to see 2016 me🫠)! When I decided to link arms with this company I had an energetic 3 year old and teeny tiny 6 month old and now they’re 11 and 8 years old!! Ya’ll time has just flown by! As I look back over these past 8 years I’m filled with gratitude for this incredible job that has allowed me to flex and bend around my family’s ever changing needs. THANK YOU for being apart of this journey with me! Whether you shop as a client, have linked arms with me as a consultant on my team, or have simply cheered for me from the sidelines, I’m so very thankful for you! Without you and this incredible clean beauty community, I would not be where I am today! It blows my mind that since April 2016, myself and my team of 60+ amazing women, have gotten almost $3 million worth of clean beauty products into people’s hands! I mean, wow, just wow! If you would have told me April of 2016, as I bounced a fussy babe on my hip, debating if I wanted to link arms as a consultant, because I just really, really wanted to save 25% on my own purchases and it seemed like a fun company to explore, that it would grow to where it is today, I would not have believed a word you said! But here we are and it’s been such a fun journey! While today marks my 8th anniversary with Beautycounter and is really fun news to share, there’s also some other news I’m EXCITED to share with you. Beautycounter was bought back by Founder and CEO, Gregg Renfrew, from the large investment firm that took over ownership in 2021. This is incredible for so many reasons, but first and foremost because it gives us FULL control to carry on business as usual. With all that said, this is a HUGE business shift as all the legal entities get transferred and all ownership shifts to Gregg and team. You may be wondering how this affects you, well Beautycounter needs to take 12 days to re-organize the business so that everything flows smoothly for both you, my amazing clients, and for me, as a Brand Advocate. So if you need anything in the meantime, connect with me! Happy to help! Pic cred @upstreet.photography
  • One of my favorite snacks and easy meal add ons! Even better when the eggs are from my neighbor’s backyard hens! I love a good soft boiled egg, not runny, not hard. It’s tricky to find the perfect balance. My husband taught me this timing trick years ago and I realized the other day I should have shared this with y’all! Yes, I know there are million and one ways to boil eggs. People do them in the instant pot, in the oven, in the air fryer, in a crockpot. You get the idea. There are A LOT of ways to make your eggs. Timing is another whole debate. I’m not here to negate anyone else’s method, just sharing the simple one that works for us😘. - 2 quart saucepan - HOT water (we have an instant hot water spigot at our sink, but even just extra hot water from your faucet will work too). - Gently add eggs to saucepan with a spoon - turn heat to high - set timer for 10minutes - when timer is done. Remove eggs from heat and gently roll into bowl of iced water. Voila! I love to keep mine in a bowl in my fridge for easy access and snacking anytime. One of my favorite snacks is a soft boiled egg sprinkled with everything bagel seasoning🤤!
  • When I first began to really become conscious of the harmful effects of the chemicals in personal care products and environmental toxins all around, I was overwhelmed. Where to even start? My friends and I would joke “whelp I guess, everything gives you cancer these days”. The jokes would help lessen the pressure I felt as a new mom trying to do my best. As I learned more I began to realize that some people go way extreme on their avoidance of EVERYTHING, to each their own. However what I quickly learned is more people than not fall into information overloaded & exhausted apathy and I knew that health had way more to do with finding balance than trying to do it all perfectly. We can only control so much. There are little changes we can make every day that create positive changes and lessen the negative chemical impact and burden on our bodies. We can choose: - healthier household cleaners. Name brands too expensive, start using simple white vinegar, unscented dishsoap and baking soda. - clean beauty; start swapping out your personal care products for ones void of synthetic fragrance, phthalates, PEGs, parabens, etc. - start opening your windows on clear and cool days. - vacuum & dust your home more frequently. - tune into dirty dozen & clean 15 so you can still incorporate organic, but use non-organic when you can too, which helps with cost significantly. Want a complete guide to detoxing your makeup bag and most harmful chemicals to avoid? COMMENT: “💄” below and I’ll send you my tips!
  • Needed this reminder. Maybe you do too. Rest is not idle, it’s not wasteful. Sometimes rest is the most productive thing you can do for your body and soul. “It takes courage to say yes to rest and play in a culture where exhaustion is seen as a status symbol.” - brene brown If we don’t intentionally choose rest, our bodies will choose it for us. One thing I learned early on in my small business journey was that I had to learn the art of resting, not quitting. All around me were people that would go full steam ahead with an idea, a new venture, etc without stopping and then all of a sudden they would just stop because they were just too tired to continue. I knew that if I wanted to be able to sustain this work I was called to, I needed to learn how to rest in the midst of the chaos of non-stop demands. So this is me, still learning, still finding the balance of choosing to rest even when I feel like I have too much on my plate to make that choice. Humans were designed to rest in the midst of hard work. We aren’t machines. Clean living is about finding this life giving balance between what the world screams at us and what our body, mind and soul tell us. Spend more time tuning into the latter versus the former. How do you rest in the midst of the chaos of life?
