2. A Quick Air and Room Refresher
Need to reset a stuffy car or a crowded office? Two or three sprays in the air act as an instant natural room freshener. Unlike synthetic sprays that mask odors, this one doesn’t contain unnecessary synthetic fragrances and petrochemicals found in several commercial air fresheners.
3. Safe and Simple Surface Cleaner
Tables at cafés, airplane trays, or picnic benches often need a wipe-down before you use them. A few sprays on a napkin or cloth turn your hand sanitizer spray into a portable surface cleaner. It’s especially helpful for parents wanting cleaner play spaces or high chairs when out and about.
4. A Natural Deodorizer for Shoes
Shoes can hold onto odors after long days or workouts. A few spritzes inside help neutralize smells. The alcohol works to sanitize, while essential oils add a refreshing scent. It’s a quick hack that keeps your sneakers, hiking boots, or even dress shoes fresh without synthetic sprays.
5. Gentle Toy and Highchair Cleaner
Kids explore the world with their hands—and often their mouths. That’s why it’s comforting to have a sanitizer spray that’s USDA certified organic—made with only simple ingredients parents can trust. Parents can use it to quickly wipe toys, stroller handles, and highchair surfaces without worry.
