Green Products that work! Can't live without them!

My family and I have been using Melaleuca for 2 years now! I originally started using the products to help my daughter's eczema - she had eczema her entire life and nothing has ever worked - until we started using Melaleuca's Renew lotion and within 1 week her skin was cleared - up and she hasn't had an outbreak since! Since then we have eliminated all toxins from our home - no more caustic chemicals and phosphates in our cleaning products which means these harmful toxins are not going into our rivers and oceans! Melaleuca's products are highly concentrated - using less plastic! We then cleaned out our personal care products - eliminating parabens, sulfates and formaldehyde - Melaleuca has excellent personal care products for everyone in the family! Toothpaste that uses xylitol instead of saccharine, mouthwash that uses tea -tree oil (excellent for oral health), lotions without parabens - very luxurious! Shampoo without harmful toxins - and safe for color-treated hair, incredible facial care products by Nicole Miller - the list goes on!! As for the vitamins...these are the absolute best vitamins available - they are much more soluble and absorbable than national and store brands that cost more and are less effective - there is a 90 day 100% satisfaction guarantee - if you do not notice a noticeable difference in your overall well-being - just send the empty bottles back and receive a full refund! In fact everything comes with a 100% satisfaction and money back guarantee. No risk! I highly recommend these products to anyone who is concerned about the toxins in their home and our environment - anyone with children in their home - you know that it is so very important to eliminate harmful toxins in their environment - they are so much more susceptible to these poisons! Please contact me to receive more information at greendoreen@yahoo.com.

DO NOT JOIN THIS COMPANY - SERVICE IS A NIGHTMARE

MELALEUCA Is like joining a bad nightmare that you can't wake up from. I joined Melaleuca and was a customer of theirs for 6 months. During this time, I only bought vitamins from them. At one point, I was a week late in ordering the vitamins and they sent me a box of stuff I did not order. I called and asked why they sent me this stuff and charge my credit card for it and they said because I forgot to order my vitamins they sent me a "back up" order to fulfill my monthly membership obligation! I supposedly filled something out that picked these items to be sent to me if I did not order something in a month! NOT SO MUCH! I think I would remember filling out a form picking out a buch of items, especially when they are items like shampoo, conditioner, lotion, soap, etc. that I would never purchase from a co like this....My question to them was "WHY THE F WOULDN'T YOU SEND ME THE SAME ITEM I HAVE BEEN PURCHASING FOR THE LAST 6 MONTHS INSTEAD OF A BUNCH OF CRAP I DON'T WANT". They of course in their friendly superficial tone said that is not the way it works and said I could ship the items back to them for a full refund. HAHAHAHA - FULL REFUND, MINUS THE $15 IT COSTS FOR SHIPPING. STRIKE 1 - paying for shipping for items I didn't order and didn't want. Okay, than I was told I had to terminate if I didn't want the following months shipment. So.....I faxed over a termination notice terminating membership immediately and told them they better not send me the September shipment. Guess what? They did anyway and I didn't accept it when the UPS man came knocking at my door. When I called to get them to refund my card - they said "sorry, you had to send in notice by the 25th, not the 27th even though the shipment didn't go out until the 31st so they clearly got my letter before sending me the box of crap again. They again told me they would credit my card LESS the $15 shipping charge! $30 FOR SHIPPING ON ITEMS I NEVER USED! THEY WOULD NOT BUDGE - NO DISUSSION / TERRIBLE SERVICE!

Please disclose if you sell these products or your review means nothing more than self-serving PR

I wonder how many of these postings are from people who sell the product? It would be good if SustainLane could urge more transparency in this process please. There is an obvious bias to someone reviewing a product from which they will derive a commission... In the future, can it be a mandatory question for all these reviews to declare "Are you a distributor or participant in the company or multi-level marketing structure?"

Thanks!
James

LOVE my Melaleuca products!

I've been shopping with Melaleuca for two years and I must say the products are phenominal! There is no comparison to the versatility of many of them. I came to Melaleuca looking for non-toxic toothpaste for my son, but I found so much more...over 350 wellness products that are more economical than grocery store brands! The kitchen cleaner is actually safe enough to bathe in! WOW! I'm so thankful to have found this company because I know that my disabled son and I are living much healthier. I am a customer for life! My passion for the company has also lead me to start referring others to shop there. If you would like more info, please message me!

Going Green by Using these ecoFriendly Products resolved my household Breathing Problems

BEFORE converting my house to Melaleuca products, I always suffered from Sinus/Allergy related issues & my little one was wheezing, congested & had ear infections.

AFTER getting the toxic chemicals out of the home - Both our breathing problems went away!!!

There is another customer in my business that had Asthma & when she converted her home, that issue was greatly resolved!!!!

Yey for Melaleuca ~ I'm a customer for life!!!!!!

Melaleuca The Best Of The Best

It is Best for me and the Family, because it is made from botanicals with no Chlorine,Ammonia, or Formaldehyde the most common ingredients in conventional products. I do not have to open windows, wear gloves or a mask when I clean. The products do the job are super concentrated and cost less. The company gives advantage dollars which gives you savings in addition to the original savings. In addition to cleaning and laundry products they have personal care products. They are pure with botanicals and smell great. Emmeril would like the grapefruit hand soap. They are good for the planet because the super concentration reduces the use of fossil fuels due to reduction in both weight and space in shipping as well as less containers to be recycled. The new 6x laundry products require only 1/2 ounce for a wash load. The 96 oz bottles would last most families a year.
Household cleaner come in 16 ounce bottle which makes 4 spray bottles of cleaner. You buy a spray bottle for 99 cents and you only buy another if the sprayer wears out which has not happened yet since 2005. Sustain Lane has criticized the company for not sharing the ingredients If you want to know go to Melaleuca.com Product store and watch the videos, check out the products they give you a summary of what is in them just not the patented information. Try them they are great and know that Melaleuca is a company you can trust. Most of the new "green products" 2x concentrated products have been produced due to pressure from WalMart and others who are loosing business to companies that have been working on this for over 20 years.

It Just Makes Sense

This company is going places. Melaleuca has over 400 wellness related products of superior quality at economical prices. If a person could use products that were cheaper, better, and healthier than what they were currently using, why wouldn't they make the switch? And with gas prices being the way they are today, it just makes sense to shop through the convenience of the computer or telephone.

Melaleuca is changing lives. My family was pinching pennies and scraping together the funds to pay our bills every month, until I found Melaleuca. I was able to come home full time to raise my daughter, and now we don't have to live paycheck to paycheck anymore.

When we think of pollutants in today's world, we think of smog, chemicals, tangible evils. But what of the pollutants of stress and debt? These evil entities consume so many people in today's society. But Melaleuca is ridding the world of even these pollutants. The company stresses using the capital generated from your home-based Melaleuca business to become debt free as a top priority. They truly take total physical, mental and spiritual wellness into consideration in their business model.

Make the choice today for TOTAL wellness and switch to a company who cares about you. A company that rewards you for your loyalty and eco-responsible attitude. Go Green, and Earn Green, with Melaleuca.

How Toxic Is Your Home?

The EPA reports that toxic chemicals found in cleaning and personal care products are three times more likely to cause cancer than outside pollutants. That means every product you use...from laundry detergent to tooth paste, and yes ladies, even your makup has toxic ingredients that are being absorbed into your skin. A recent study on cancer revealed 89% of cancer is environmentally caused. Only a small percentage is genetic. Another interesting fact showed that cancer is the number one killer of children ages 5-9. In the last 30 years, childhood cancer has increased 25%. Toxins in the home are posing real dangers to your and your families on a daily basis.

Going Green in my home helps the enviornment and my Children

9 years ago I started shopping for my home products for my family. My son at the time had asthma and allergies so bad he used an inhaler 3 times per day. Within 6 months of taking the toxins out of our home, he is inhaler free. It is amazing that I am able to help my family and the environment at the same time. In addition, unborn children are exposed to over 250 toxins BEFORE they are ever born! Why would we shop any other way!

Melaleuca - Houshold products/ personal care

I have been more than pleased with products produced by Melaleuca who are known for the main ingredient- tea tree oil. At one time I was a regular customer, but I overstocked and couldn't find another local distributor to replenish items for my personal use. Every aspect of my home, including the laundry needed Melaleuca products to keep them environmentally safe, clean as well as antiseptic.

Great botanically-based products.

I've just been introduced to Melaleuca and so far I like the products that I have used. I like that their products are healthy and safe to use in my home, are botanically-based and promote sustainability.
