Love this stuff...

If you have visited my Facebook page you have probably noticed the Shaklee deal going on now for free shipping for orders of $200+ and seen some of the deals I have been personally offering.  You got curious and maybe even checked out my Shaklee website but you just weren't sure what to try.  Well I want to tell you a little about one of my favorite products and help you start making your home a healthier home.

Shaklee's Basic H2 is the most incredible product I have ever come across!  It is sold as a cleaning product but it can do just about anything...from clean to be used as a hair detangler.  And it's safe, green and concentrated so you only use drops at a time.  It is safe enough to use not only around your children but on them too.  I have bathed my kids in it!

Look how much is left after using Basic H2 for 14 months!

I have listed some of the 1001 uses of Basic H2 below but please contact me if you have any questions.  Check out sarahsmart.myshaklee.com to get your bottle and some of the other amazing Shaklee products today!!
