When Malcolm and Melanie Rands started ecostore in 1993 they wanted to create a healthier, more sustainable world. ecostore started out in the basement of their home in a permaculture eco-village in New Zealand as a mail order business. Eighteen years on, their products are distributed through supermarkets and health stores, in New Zealand and Australia, are exported to Hong Kong, Japan and Korea, and sold in the US.
Also available at ePharmacy where there's free shipping with $50 Spend
Agree, leaves me feeling so fresh and zesty
Sad that amazon is not price matching and further 10% with s&s this range now.
I'm not sure if Amazon sell it themselves any more. It looks like ecostore is selling it through Amazon.
No more free shipping over $50?
Not from Chemist Warehouse website, but still available at their other website epharmacy.com.au
Interesting to know.
They’ve also got rid of their free shipping on PBS scripts.
It was great value getting one concession script delivered for $6.30
I switched to https://www.superpharmacy.com.au/
Can vouch for their dishwashing powder, don't need to use a lot and doesn't leave residue! Thanks OP!
Edit: very good, Chemist Warehouse doesn't sell the dishwashing powder…
+1 on vouching for dishwashing powder, way better than finish tablets, I wonder if ecostore tablets are any good….
They sell the tablets though which are just as fantastic. Bought a few boxes.
how are they compared to Fairy?
Finish tablets do suck though.
not exactly apples to apples, ecostore touts themselves as all natural ingredients vs fairy/finish all chemicals I guess. Buy the marketing as you will.
I bought their big 1 litre dishwashing liquid at Woolies when it was half price. Worst product ever. Does a terrible job of cutting through grease. Doesn't get sudsy and just seems to smear the grease around. Ended up going back to Morning Fresh after using about only 1/8th of the bottle. Might try mixing it with water to use as a surface spray or something.
*edit it was the Lemon dishwashing liquid, which doesn't appear to be sold at CW. Maybe the other 'flavours' are ok?
Yeah the other flavours taste just as bad and does a horrible job cutting done grease in my intestines
I wonder if their products are effective
I found whatever I used to be just average and not any better than any of the other brands (finish, cascade, morning fresh, other soaps, etc.). I personally feel that they tell you a "we started at a garage in 1930" type of story and are asking for relatively more money for the same stuff.
I found their dishwasher powder to be really good
Sure, I am not saying it's not good. I don't use dishwash powder so I don't know about that specifically.
What I'm saying is that you may usually find cheaper alternatives that perform similarly or even better.
Another thing is that I found their "baby soap" to be extremely irritating the eyes which I found out as I luckily washed my face with it accidentally before using it on the baby. Not a fan.
@Xavier1128: Unless it's not clear, the soap wasn't used on the baby and is sitting in the shed as I use it to "soap" the steel screws I use on the wooden deck. :)
Love how it's 'better than half price'… by 1c
/r/technicallythetruth
Only if paying by card though
Or buy 3 and pay with cash, saving you 2c!
Haven't tried any of the other products but i absolutely love the lemongrass soap <3
