Recycla first brought Indigo Wild and their fantabulous Zum products to Enviro-Girl’s attention. What’s the story behind this eco-friendly brand?
Located in Kansas City, MO, Indigo Wild is a fun-loving company committed to producing natural and as-organic-as-possible things for your body and your house. Best known for their goat’s milk soap (available in 31 scents), Enviro-Girl decided to give those a whirl first. With smells ranging from lavender-mint to patchouli-orange, Enviro-Girl was thrilled. No fake, flowery, perfumy-mall-store smells here–these are rich and yummy mixes of aromas actually found in nature. The soap itself lathers up rich and fluffy–a little actually goes a long way–and the result is a moisturized clean. Enviro-Girl takes clean a little too seriously, but the moisturizing bit was a real benefit. Dry, harsh and frigid Wisconsin winters take their toll on Enviro-Girl’s skin and she’s actually reduced her use of lotion since using the Zum bars.
Other products that have surpassed Enviro-Girl’s muster include Zum Kiss! lip balm and Zum Rub skin balm.
Super scrubbing power and great smell aside, by using essential oils, Zum products are also therapeutic, meaning, they’ll relax, rejuvenate, revive or restore depending on the combo of oils in the product. What more could one ask from soap? Indigo Wild creates all nature of natural scrubby, rubby, soapy products–candles, lotions, baby care, dog care, laundry detergent, even pimple cream. With the promise that “Stinky rear ends here,” Zum Bum, a bidet in a bottle, will even freshen up your tushie. In fact, it seems that just about the only living or non-living thing the folks at Indigo Wild won’t clean is your car. Enivro-Girl suspects it’s because these Planet Protectors probably ride bikes or walk instead of drive.
Enviro-Girl’s only beef with Indigo Wild is that they don’t list local retailers on their website. She supposes she could email them and ask, but for now she’ll order online. Small inconvenience for great products that help make Earth a greener and cleaner planet.
I’ve used their laundry detergent and loved it. I’m also using some of their cleaning products and they smell so much better than anything else I’ve tried.
Personally, I’ve loved the soaps, the lotion, and the face scrub.
My husband really wants to try Zum Bum, just because.
Sounds perfectly zummy – oops yummy!
