    DIY Mason Jar Soap Dispenser with Lemi Shine

    DIY Mason Jar Soap Dispenser and Spring Cleaning Tips with Lemi-Shine

    It is still rainy and cool this Spring in New Jersey with only a few glimpses of sun here and there. This much rainy weather equates to a lot of time spent inside the house where we come face to face with messy situations that require Springtime cleaning. What is the cause of all this mess? The results of activities related to me, my husband, my toddler daughter, our 2 dogs Chloe and Cayli and general, Springtime occurrences.

    Here's "Chloe", our cute, Miniature Poodle and a partial contributor to our general home mess.

    What might be some of these "general Springtime occurrences"? We live in the country and every Springtime, small ants start being active, for example, I dropped a piece of watermelon outside our door, on the way to the compost pile and a short time later there was an ant-zombie apocalypse happening. All the more reason to be vigilant with cleaning surfaces, not leaving food out and keeping things tidy.

    Read on to see exactly what Lemi Shine products I was sent to try, my review of them, Lemi Shine coupons and DIY Mason Jar Soap Dispenser!

    This photo shows all the products that Lemi Shine sent me sitting on my kitchen table.

    About Lemi Shine Products

    Here is information about the Lemi Shine company:

    We believe Clean Freaks deserve cleaning products worthy of their high standards. Products that get the job done better, with plenty of peace of mind and no questionable chemicals. Clean Freaks, we've got your back!

    Lemi Shine is a Texas-based, family-oriented company offering powerful, safe products. They have been dedicated to helping people get Clean Freak Clean dishes and appliances for over 20 years. This year, with the introduction of three new Liquid Dish Soaps, three Surface Cleaners and a new Laundry Detergent Booster, Lemi Shine is offering Clean Freaks new ways to get their whole house Clean Freak Clean.

    Lemi Shine products are effective and safe, powered by 100% natural citric extracts. They’re non-toxic, biodegradable and septic system friendly.

I am sharing my review of the Lemi Shine products that I tried and coupons for several Lemi Shine products too! #ad #SpringtimeCleantime #CleanFreakClean

    List of the 7 Lemi Shine Products that I received + My Reviews of What I Tried

    1. Lemi Shine Concentrated Dish Soap, 22oz
    Cuts grease with long-lasting suds, even in hard water. With flip and click cap technology, just set our dish soap on your counter so it's ready when you need it for one hand, no wait last drop dispensing.

    This is my favorite of all the Lemi Shine products I was sent! I do a lot of dishes here at our house because we *currently* do not have a dishwasher (gasp!) and I am a food blogger , not to mention I cook most of our family meals from scratch. I love the light, citrus scent and it is gentle on my hands 🙂  Check out the DIY Mason Jar Soap Dispenser that I share below that uses the Lemi Shine Concentrated Dish Soap.

    2. Lemi Shine Dishwasher Detergent, 15 count
    Enzymatic Agitation breaks down even the most stubborn food residue and rinses it away. Save time by not pre-rinsing or pre-soaking dirty dishes, glasses, pots and pans. And save water by keeping dishes out of the sink – cleans even 48-hour stuck on food.

    Like I said above, we do not have a dishwasher, due to the fact that we are planning to renovate our 1950's kitchen which we are doing in phases. I am actually planning to share that process on the blog, so stay tuned for those updates in the future!

    3. Lemi Shine Detergent Booster, 12oz
    Hard water may be the reason your clean dishes have a lackluster appearance. Using Lemi Shine Booster in every wash solves this problem. Combined with your dishwasher detergent, Lemi Shine Booster removes spots, stains, and film during the main wash cycle.

    *For any Lemi Shine products for a dishwasher listed here, I will update this post when I get to use them with a dishwasher.

    4. Lemi Shine Glass + Surface Cleaner, 28oz
    After the first use, Lemi Shine Glass & Surface Cleaner creates an invisible barrier shielding surfaces from dust, fingerprints, and water spots. Smudge and dust resistance make it easier to clean next time.

    5. Lemi Shine Shower + Tile Cleaner, 28oz
    Natural citric extracts and foaming action dissolve soap scum, hard water buildup and grime while a naturally-derived polymer creates an invisible barrier preventing new buildup.

    For both the Lemi Shine Glass + Surface Cleaner and the Lemi Shine Shower + Tile Cleaner, I was very impressed that there was not any fumes that I could detect and I have enjoyed using them in my home. Since I have become a mom, I am not fond of cleaning products with fumes that smell like chemicals. I just don't like having chemicals and fumes around myself or my toddler daughter. I feel like that made me less likely to do cleaning, not just because I get distracted easily by the needs of my daughter but also because I worry about chemical exposure. I do my best to keep our house tidy by organizing but have been feeling like the "cleaning" part was lacking because of my reluctance to be exposed to fumes. I am glad that the Lemi Shine products have 100% natural citric extracts, are non-toxic, biodegradable and septic system friendly (since we have a septic system). I feel that the Lemi Shine products perform very well and are effective at cleaning my house.

    6. Lemi Shine Garbage Disposal Cleaner, single use
    Cleans, deodorizes, and optimizes even in hard water. Scrubs away odor causing buildup leaving sink clean and fresh.

    7. Lemi Shine Dishwasher Cleaner, single use
    Cleans, deodorizes, and optimizes even in hard water. Dissolves away hard water buildup for cleaner dishes.
