Last month’s Simply Earth box had Claire and I thinking pink, but the Simply Earth April Box month has us getting a start on spring cleaning starting with those non-routine laundry pieces. I was able to use some of the recipes I made this month to get comforters, pillows, mattress covers, shower curtains, and more started. They are fresh and clean now. I was impressed with the powerful fresh scent of items I made! They worked well! See what is inside with the wonderful recipes!
This month’s Simply Earth April box contains 5 cotton fabric squares, soap nuts, 2 2oz spray bottles and 4 specially curated essential oils. This month’s essential oils are:
- Tangerine-aids digestion, supports immunity
- Tea Tree- use in skincare, cleans, uplifts
- Thyme- aids digestions, supports immunity
- Clean & Fresh- cleans
This month’s recipes are Clean & Crisp Diffuser Blend, Fresh Start Roll-On, Fresh Reusable Dryer Sheets, Soap Nut Liquid Laundry Soap, Stain Remover, and Clean Linen Spray.
Clean & Crisp Diffuser Blend
This diffuser blend is perfect to get you in the mood for some deep spring cleaning! I love the refreshing citrus note from the tangerine and the clean, herb scents from the thyme and tea tree.
Fresh Start Roll-On
If you are having some difficulty clearing your thinking or overcoming some emotions, this roll-on is for you! The scents work together to help support a sense of calmness.
Stain Remover
My kids have quite the knack for getting stains in brand-new clothing. My secret to getting them out is often dish soap. This recipe actually calls for some dish soap in it so I had a feeling it was going to work perfectly. I also learned that tea tree can be used for cleaning stains which I didn’t know before. It’s such a useful essential oil!
Soap Nut Liquid Laundry Soap
Trying these little guys out was a fun, new experience for me! I had never heard of them previously. They are actually berries that contain soap agents. Since they are low sudsing, they are considered safe to use with HE machines, too. I have tried a few loads with my laundry soap and was happy with the fresh, clean laundry.
Fresh Reusable Dryer Sheets
I was excited to try these. I gave up on dryer sheets long ago to help cut costs and try to be more eco-friendly. Being able to use reusable ones and choose the scent is a perfect solution! These worked well and the solution is sure to last a while.
Clean Linen Spray
This spray was incredibly quick and easy to make. It’s perfect for a few times during the week while making the bed. I use a couple of sprays on the sheets and pillows to freshen up the sheets. Works like a charm!
ADDED BENEFITS
The Simply Earth subscription box is a wonderful opportunity to begin using essential oils more and making useful and fun items you can use in your home. I learn things every month! This month I was so excited to learn about soap nuts. I think my favorite recipe was Reusable Dryer Sheets though. It makes much more sense to make your own from the scents you like than purchasing them again and again. Make sure you get your box soon because it is predicted to SELL OUT BY APRIL 23RD!

There are other benefits to the subscription box like being able to add items to your box for free shipping, being able to exchange oils, and being able to gift a month to someone!

GIVING BACK
I also love that 13% of all products go to support organizations that work to end human trafficking. This month Simply Earth is continuing to support The Daughter Project. They are giving 13% of their profits to The Daughter Project. For over 10 years, The Daughter Project has been rescuing women and children from sex traffickers. They give survivors the holistic care they need on their healing journey.
A Simply Earth monthly subscription can do good for the environment AND society.
Next month’s box sounds amazing! If you want a sneak peek, you can look forward to a Ladies’ Choice Blend, Lemon, Marjoram, and Spearmint essential oils.
