Soft Scrub Review and Giveaway

 
I had the awesome opportunity of trying out Soft Scrub's new Total Bath & Bowl and All Purpose with Bleach foam/spray cleaners! Now, in all honesty, I am allergic to any household cleaners that have a scent, strong chemicals, anything. The way we tested this, was I took before photos, left the house, let my HUSBAND try out the sprays and I came back and took after photos once the house cleared out! I have to say, I was impressed. My husband doesn't always clean to my satisfaction, so the dirty drains were not as clean as I would have liked, but with how he cleans, this product is awesome! The foam sprays really did a lot of the work by themselves! When I first got these in the mail, my initial thought was that the chemical smell would linger in the house way too long and the sinks would not be any cleaner than before, but they looked fantastic! I love the Soft Scrub brand and I know their products are amazing, but I grew up with the actual scrub so I really did not know what to expect of the new sprays. I like them! The only thing I was not fond of was that something in our sink caused a chemical reaction with the spray and left some black gunk around the drain. With another cleaning this pretty much went away, but I would have rather had to clean it only once. Our sink looks nice and clean and shiny now though! Check out the before and after pics for our bathroom sink which tends to get a lot of rust and grime in it from our water:

I love that even though the Soft Scrub foam/spray contains bleach, it is fairly gentle. I alo love that you can choose a fine mist OR a thick foam depending on what the cleaning job needs! I have always been a fan of foams as they are more fun to clean with and they really do a great job and will stay more to the area you are working rather than a spray that gets everywhere. Since Soft Scrub Total has both, it makes this product so versatile with your personal preference and specific needs! I know that when I can use sprays (as I mentioned, usually free and clear sprays,) I will accidentally tip the container upside down to get into hard-to-reach places and am always disappointed when nothing comes out. Well, you can even spray with the bottle upside down! How neat is that?

For those of you wondering, as I know some of you do not use bleach, the only one of these that comes with bleach is the one that states it! Since bleach mixed with ammonia is a toxic combination, this may be the way to go if you use a lot of products that contain ammonia regularly. You can use Soft Scrub Total all around your house, not just in the bathroom; try it on your stovetop, kitchen sink, your bathtub, and get creative! Let me know where you Soft Scrub! Take a photo of someplace in your home that could use Soft Scrub Total and post it on my Facebook wall!
