Teaching Taylor

I love trying different products-hair, makeup, skincare. The list goes on. One of my most recent finds that I’ve been LOVING is Pure Haven.

I saw a cleaning product from this brand on an Instagram story one day so I decided to go on the website and take a look.

I’ve been trying to use “cleaner” products in my daily routine because there are such harsh ingredients in things, so when I saw that it was toxin free I figured why not. I ordered the one starter pack right from the website, blindly and just hoped for the best.

This kit included laundry detergent, glass cleaner, surface cleaner, dish soap, scrubbing cleanser, and a master blaster that is good for stains and odors. I was all in on the order. Why not give a ton of things a try, right?

Shortly after ordering, a random number texted me. This lady introduced herself and told me that the company reached out to her to connect with me to be sure I didn’t have any questions- crazy, right?

We exchanged a few text messages and quickly hit it off. She found out I was a teacher and inquired about a crazy idea!

A few short days later, Alisha was presenting to my Foods class about the various ingredients in cleaning products we use in the kitchen and how it’s important to just be aware of the items we are using. Some of the information didn’t resonate with my students and that’s okay, but it at least made them aware on what ingredients could be in the products they are using daily and how some of those ingredients could be harmful to their health.

That session made me realize what a wealth of knowledge this lady had. Not only did she know her stuff, she had a passion to educate others on toxins in our everyday products. As a teacher, I love seeing people who are on fire about educating others.

Shortly after that I was having one of those crazy online Facebook parties with Alisha and telling all my friends about this brand because I was quite impressed what what I had purchased and had been using.

So, here I am today to give you my real and honest review on a few products that I have and that I’ve been using because maybe you’re also curious about using cleaner products in your daily routine.

1. Their skin care line is a MUST TRY! I’ve struggled with problematic skin for years. I’ve had to go to medical doctors for medication and see estheticians for facials to just maintain a somewhat decent complexion, but this, YOU GUYS, is AMAZING. Because I’ve gotten my problematic skin under control, this is the perfect skincare line to just keep my skin feeling fresh, clean and with minimal breakouts. The hyaluronic acid is my favorite I think because it just feels so nice on my skin. If you do have more problematic skin, they have products for that too. The only downfall for the skin care stuff is that the makeup remover didn’t come with a spray nozzle… but that’s an easy fix.

2. Their glass cleaner is my jam. I love anything peppermint so I knew I would love the smell of this but, DANG does it work good. I sometimes catch myself spraying this on literally everything I want to clean because I love the scent so much. My only complaint- I wish all their products were this scent. I truthfully haven’t found a cleaning product of theirs that I don’t like. Their powdered laundry detergent works so good and leaves my clothes feeling fresh. The one cleaning product I haven’t quite used a lot of is called Master Blaster, so I can’t give you honest feedback on that one.

3. You can’t go wrong with a good shower routine. This bath soap scent was limited addition, I think, but I just got their watermelon soap and it is FANTASTIC. I have super thick hair and I was pleasantly surprised on how this shampoo and conditioner made my hair feel. I did borrow it to my mom to try and she ordered her own set, so she must’ve liked it too.

4. Please ignore my unorganized makeup case. I’m a product girl remember. This eyeliner is SO PIGMENTED. I use a tiny brush to apply and it looks so good. It lasts all day. The only issue I have has to do with my hooded eyelids. If I apply too thick of a line, I get a nice solid black line on my eyelid after running around all day. When I do a thinner line, this doesn’t seem to happen as much so that’s a win. If you don’t have hoods like me, you should be fine.

5. This deodorant however is my ALL TIME FAVORITE Pure Haven product. I have been on the hunt for a reasonably priced and working natural deodorant for A LONG TIME. I’ve spent years going back and forth between two other brands of deodorant, which when alternated and sometimes paired together would work for me. This stuff solo has been amazing. A few swipes on the underarm and I’m good to go all day. Natural deodorant can sometimes leave you feeling stinky, but not this stuff. It works so good. I started off by trying their non baking soda formula because I’ve had issues with baking soda in deodorant before. It caused me to have some irritated underarms and it was not a fun time, so I was nervous to try the baking soda one. Alisha encouraged me to the baking soda formula and I am so glad I did. I LOVE that one so much more and it works so good! Give it a go!

As I look around my house, Pure Haven is everywhere. Hand soap, lotion, laundry, detergent, cleaners, sunscreen, and even bug spray (which actually works pretty good unless you’re in the middle of the woods) Pure Haven truly has so many products out there that could work for anyone, but at the end of the day, it’s important that you use what makes you feel best. That’s what I loved about Alisha the most. She didn’t once make me feel like Pure Haven had to be what I bought. She just wanted me to have the knowledge to make the best decisions for myself and my health.

It was purely coincidence that Alisha and I met, but I’m so glad we did because these products have been so awesome to have in my home! I encourage you to find yourself a product like this that makes you just feel good to use it.
