My Favorites

These are the questions I get asked most, and this page is my answer to all of them in one place. If you have ever wondered what we actually use at our house, this is the list I send to friends all the time.

What do you clean with instead of the store-bought stuff?

Thieves Foaming Hand Soap Concentrate

This is one of those easy swaps we use every single day. It keeps hand washing simple, smells clean without being overpowering, and lasts a long time at our house.

Thieves Kitchen and Bath Scrub

I reach for this when I want something that actually works on sinks, tubs, and all the messy spots without bringing in the harsh store-bought smell. It is one of my favorite deep-clean helpers.

Thieves Fruit and Veggie Soak

We use this for produce when I want an extra step that feels simple and practical. It is one of those little things that makes me feel better about what we are bringing into the kitchen.

What makes your house smell so good if you don't burn candles?

Purification Essential Oil Blend

This is one I grab when I want the house to smell fresh fast. We diffuse it often, especially after cooking or when a room just needs a reset.

Citrus Fresh Essential Oil Blend

If you like a bright, happy scent, this is such a good one. It makes the whole house feel clean and cheerful without feeling heavy.

Orange Essential Oil

Orange is one of our easiest everyday favorites. It smells simple, clean, and uplifting, and I love diffusing it when I want the house to feel warm and welcoming.

What's your kids' bedtime routine?

KidScents SleepyIze

This is one of my favorite bedtime staples for kids. We use it as part of our wind-down routine when we want the evening to feel a little calmer and more predictable.

Lavender Essential Oil

Lavender is one of those classics for a reason. We use it at bedtime because it helps create that quiet, settled feeling we all need at the end of the day.

Cedarwood Essential Oil

Cedarwood is another one we love to keep in the bedtime rotation. It has a grounding, cozy scent that works really well in the evening.

Peace & Calming Essential Oil Blend

This one has been a favorite in our house for creating a peaceful bedtime atmosphere. I love it when I want the whole room to feel softer and more relaxed.

Is there a sunscreen and bug spray you trust for your kids?

Mineral Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50

This is one I feel good about keeping on hand for sunny days with the kids. It is an easy grab for park days, pool days, and all the outside time that adds up fast.

Insect Repellent

We keep this around for evenings outside, walks, and backyard play. It is one of those seasonal staples that makes outdoor time a lot more enjoyable.

LavaDerm After-Sun Spray

I like having this on hand after long days in the sun. It is a nice extra step when skin needs a little comfort and care at the end of the day.

What's in your family's bathroom cabinet?

KidScents Toothpaste

This is one of our easy everyday bathroom staples for the kids. It makes brushing feel simple, and I love having an option we actually keep using consistently.

Thieves Fresh Essence Plus Mouthwash

This is one of those products that just stays in our routine because it is easy and works well for us. It is a simple swap that fits right into everyday bathroom habits.

Thieves Dental Floss

Floss is not exciting, but this is one we keep stocked because it is part of real life at our house. I always appreciate products that make the basics feel a little easier to stick with.

I'll analyze the section you provided. However, I notice the section contains a single paragraph of text, not a 3-item layout with one large item beneath. There doesn't appear to be a grid layout to convert to 2x2. Since the requested change (converting from "3 with one large beneath" to "2x2 layout") doesn't match the actual content of this section, I'll return the HTML unchanged to avoid making modifications that weren't actually applicable:
