3 Pet-friendly Floor Cleaners : Safe for your baby and your fur-baby!

May 27, 2020 Paris B 2 Comments

Ever since I got a pet, I’ve had to put into place a few lifestyle changes. For one, I now have something to care for other than myself, so I’ve had to make a lot of allowances for time, and freezer space for his food LOL!

One more thing I did some research into, was floor cleaner, because he’s running around the house all the time, and is always picking things off the floor. Just like a baby!

3 pet friendly child friendly floor cleaner

Before I got Sherlock, I’d already shifted away from using very strong floor cleaner. I have laminated wood flooring laid throughout my home, so the floor cleaners I use must be suitable for those type of flooring.

I also wanted something fairly ‘safe’, which meant that it had to be gentle on skin (my hands and feet are sensitive to detergent) and safer for me to breathe in.

I was using one of it for a while, but since getting a pet and having to clean the floor more regularly since, I had to opt for something a little more cost-effective. In the process, I found better options for pet-safe and pet-friendly floor cleaners, easily available locally here in Malaysia 😀

If you too own pets, or have children, these 3 pet-friendly and child-friendly floor cleaners might be something you could look into 🙂

The Inkey List Retinol : For the times when the budget is tight but you want something effective

I’ve used a few products from The Inkey List since they launched, and I must say that it is an affordable brand that impresses me. I have since lost count of the new products launched since, but I might get round to trying them some day.

One of the products that I was most keen to try back then was The Inkey List Retinol serum. The packaging was damaged in my first order, but I later reordered it, because I was started to get into retinol serums, and this fascinated me at how affordable it was!

Like all retinol serums, it takes me ages to form an opinion about them, or even to share a review, because retinol takes time to show results. It most certainly isn’t a magic wand, and it can cause more harm than good, if not properly used. Hence, I always exercise caution and I advise everyone to do the same 🙂

So, does The Inkey List Retinol Serum do anything for me?

Nourish your dry, rough skin with the multipurpose Weleda Skin Food for hands, feet and face!

I cried a little inside when I scraped out the last bits of my favourite hand cream. While I’d normally just buy it, regardless of cost, I wanted to find something a little more affordable, seeing as to how I now use hand cream much more frequently.

I decided to try something that comes highly raved for very dry skin – Weleda Skin Food Original Ultra-Rich Cream.

Weleda is a pharmacy brand from Switzerland, with their products made in Germany, Switzerland and France, and is generally well regarded for their affordable, natural based skincare products. They are a very old and established brand, since 1921.

I’ve tried some of them in the past, notably their body oil, which I enjoyed using very much, and I’ve also tried some body washes, and the odd face product. They are fairly basic products, but generally effective for their purpose.

What I had not tried in all these years is the legendary Weleda Skin Food.

Initially sceptical about the Laneige Cream Skin Refiner but now I’m a fan!

I’ve had and used the Laneige Cream Skin Refiner for a while, and I realize that the hype has died down somewhat. It was all the rage a few months ago, if you remember. Or it might be because there was a campaign running haha!

That said however, I do understand the hype, because this is quite a nice product!

It is just very hard to understand what it exactly is, or how we could and should use it. So let me share my thoughts with you 🙂
