The BEST Kept Secret - Natural Home Care

The Best Kept Secret —

Go Chic with Watkins Natural Home Care Products!

You make choices everyday to keep your family healthy and safe — now you can do the same with cleaning your home with safe, natural plant-based home care products.

Watkins — the second home care product line to be certified by the Natural Product Association.

Nearly one million people visited the NPA web site looking for information about natural products. The Natural Product Association is trying to help consumers navigate the natural shelves by creating a seal that helps consumers easily identify what products are truly "natural." The exciting news — five of Watkins Home Care products carry that seal and more products will be certified in 2011!

Watkins Freedom Code guarantees that all products carrying the NPA seal of approval are:

Free of Synthetic Dyes
Commitment to Full Ingredient Disclosure (Key to whether a product is truly natural; most companies do not indulge the ingredients.)
Fragranced with Essential Oils
Free of Animal Bi-Products
Biodegradable
Free of Phosphates
Hypoallergenic
Non-Toxic, Plant Based Formulas

Natural is all the rage; whether it's what we eat, put on our bodies, or what we use in our homes. People everywhere are making the choice to go natural. We set ourselves apart from other companies because we truly carry natural home care products. Not to mention we are the only direct selling company offering NPA approved products.

Why are consumers choosing natural?

The Environmental Protection Agency reports that air pollution in our homes is up to five times worse inside than outside.

37% of Americans suffer from chemical sensitivities, skin rashes and allergies, many of them provoked by chemicals in cleaning products.

Asthma is the leading cause of emergency room visits and absenteeism in schools.
Warm baths and showers open pores so that what we have cleaned with is more readily absorbed.

Indoor pollutants come from all sorts of chemicals we use to make our lives easier every day-carpets, furniture, household cleaners and personal care.

The Environmental Protection Agency ranks indoor air quality among the top five risks to human health.

It's not hard to see that choosing natural products provide:

A Healthier Home
A Healthier You
A Healthier Family
An Eco-Friendly, Safe Environment for your loved ones.
Make a difference in your quality of life and those you meet! Don't keep it a secret — word of mouth is a powerful tool. Natural Product Association Certified and on PROMOTION in March!
