My Favorite Kitchen Tools + Organization Products

After researching ingredient lists and testing so many “clean” products, I was happy with only a handful, while most were a big fail.

Below are my favorite personal care products I love and use, including soaps, shower/bath gels, toothpaste, lotions, sun protection and deodorants.

Try them for yourself and let me know what you think!

NOTE: While I do my best to keep this list up to date, sometimes companies change their formulations or discontinue products.

Nutribullet Magic Blender in dark grey finish with two extra blade componenets on the right side

Magic Bullet Blender

A mid-sized blender that’s easy to store in an upper cabinet. Perfect for making cashew cream, small smoothies and other quick purees. I prefer the 900 watt or higher; anything less doesn’t have enough power.

Kitchen Gadgets & Storage

These are all the little tools that make a big difference in your ninja cooking skills.

Plastic can leach into foods and liquids, especially when heated or when the containers are older and start to break down. Make the switch to glass containers so you know your food will be safe. Switch all at once, or over time.
