Thanks To This New Tip, My Bathroom Always Smells Very Good!

A clean and fresh bathroom requires regular maintenance. For that, people normally buy deodorants that are made from chemicals that are harmful to health and that are not really effective at eliminating odors, and only camouflage them. But, in this article we offer you a great alternative: a natural house trick that can help you eliminate bad odors from your bathroom to smell good and fresh for days.

Industrial deodorants are everywhere. You recognize them by their floral or fruity perfumes, strong and synthetic.


Industrial deodorants, a threat to health

These artificial deodorants are harmful to your health and a major source of indoor air pollution. Indeed, studies have shown that indoor air is often more polluted than outdoor air. The common ingredients found in deodorants include at least two dangerous toxic products: phthalates and formaldehyde.

Phthalates
Often contained in synthetic fragrances, phthalates can be responsible for a number of health problems, including infertility, congenital malformations, but also allergic symptoms and asthma, according to the Natural Resources Defense Council. While many companies today realize their products without phthalates, it is difficult to know if a product contains them or not without laboratory tests. If there is a "fragrance" on the ingredient label, the product may contain phthalates.

Formaldehyde
Formaldehyde is often found in air fresheners, as well as in cleaning products and other household products.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, formaldehyde is known to cause cancer, including cancer of the nose and throat. Scientific research has not yet shown what level of formaldehyde exposure causes cancer. However, the higher the level and the longer the exposure, the higher the risk of cancer.

In order to avoid the harmful effects of these chemicals, we show you in this article the best and easiest way to make a natural deodorizer for your bathroom and toilet, which is cheap, effective, easy to prepare and without chemical products. And most importantly, its fragrance is sustainable!

Now your toilet or bathroom will smell wonderfully well in a discreet way, and your toilet paper will smell as fresh, and the scent will last a long time.

You can try this with different essential oils and your bathroom can smell differently each week, or you can combine the smells. If you put more rolls of toilet paper in your bathroom, you can use a few drops of different essential oils on each one.

You can also try another method to deodorize your bathroom and eliminate odors, by preparing a natural deodorant in a vaporizer.
