Born 2 Impress Summer Must Have Products- Ever Bamboo Products- Review and Giveaway


Closed.






If you have followed this blog for a while, you will probably know that I have done different reviews of various products made out of bamboo with most of them being clothing items. Suffice it to say, I am a HUGE bamboo fan! 

There are many properties found in bamboo that make this plant a very important resource. Being a big fan of bamboo clothing, of course I was really excited when I found Ever Bamboo whose products are made from the rapidly growing moso bamboo….. This type of bamboo can grow two feet or more in a single day, reaching a height of 60 feet in two to three months!

 I was given the opportunity to try three different products from their catalog: Sport Deodorizer that absorbs odors and moisture from lockers and sports bags……DH play soccer , so a product like this is something that we can certainly use and appreciate. The 25g is perfect to carry around in the gym bag or to keep in a locker.  

The bag is filled with unscented bamboo charcoal. According to the Ever bamboo, with the proper care, this product can last a long as a year or more! It is recommended to place the product outside under direct sun light for 2-3 hours on each side once a week or month. I have been using ours on DH’s sports bag and have noticed a big difference! The Sports Deodorizer retails for $ 4.95 so, it is a great value for the price.

 The second product I tried was the Ever Bamboo Shoe Deodorizer which comes in a set of two 50 g x 2 unscented bamboo charcoal and helps you to keep your shoes moisture and odor free. I have been using the deodorizer on my work shoes and love it! Also very easy to use…..All you need to do is just slip the packet into your shoes every night and voila fresh and dry shoes the next day. The Shoe Deodorizer should be treated as the bag deodorizer to get up to one year of use…Also a great value, the shoe deodorizer retails for about $9.95.

The last but not least was the Over-Size Deodorizer. This 1 kg bamboo charcoal bag has the capability to absorb odors and moisture. The Over Sized Deodorizer can be placed in kitchens, walk-in fridges, basements, garages, warehouses, and pet areas,….Living in Florida and close to the water this is certainly a big help….I keep mine in my walk-in closet and it works like a charm! With this size bag, you can cover areas up to 400 square feet. 

The Over-Sized Deodorizer retails for 29.95 dollars and can last up to one year, so it is a great value for the money! Worth knowing…..Bamboo charcoal is 100% natural. Remarkably, at the end of its lifespan, the bamboo charcoal pieces from the product can be mixed with gardening soil. Charcoal pieces deter pests and absorb excessive moisture in the soil (ideal for delicate plants such as orchids). 

For another eco-friendly idea, incorporate the bamboo charcoal pieces into a clever home decor accessory. …I already have one or two ideas in which I can use the Bamboo charcoal……
