Have I ever told you all that when I met The Lazy Dad he was on an all-natural eating kick?
I haven't?
Well he was. So now I've told you.
But don't worry girls, I broke him of that REAL fast.
It's something I'm not proud of. But I choose to live with myself anyway. What other options do I have?
Anyway, I've learned a lot about all-natural eating and such over the years from him and books we've read and blah, blah, blah.
One of the things I discovered in my reading about an all-natural lifestyle was about the need to filter our water. But not just our drinking water, our bathing water too.
Did you know you had bathing water? Because I just made that up. On the fly. I'm that good.
Stick with me. This will start to make sense right about here....
About a month ago a company called Aquasana contacted me and asked me if I'd like to review and (this is the part you will like) giveaway one of their shower filters. Because The Lazy Dad and I had always wanted a shower filter I totally jumped at the opportunity!
Lazy Moms... meet the Aquasana Shower Filter...
You may also be interested to know that Mr. Shower Filter here was also featured on the Dr. Oz show. He's that popular.
So now that you've met, what does he do exactly?
Well first of all the Aquasana Shower Filter has a unique two-stage filter process giving you the healthiest shower possible. It filters out chlorine and synthetic chemicals in your water, all while enhancing the pH balance.
Anyone who has ever gone swimming in a chlorinated pool knows how chlorine robs moisture from your skin and hair. What most people don't realize is that typically there is as much or more chlorine in tap water as there is in most swimming pools. And when you shower in this tap water your skin absorbs all that chlorine just like you were in a pool.
Chlorine strips the natural protective oils from skin and hair, causing excess dryness. But when you use Mr. Shower Filter here who works hard to filter out all that chlorine, you'll notice significant cosmetic benefits ... softer skin and hair in a week or Aquasana will give you your money back!! SCORE! I love me a money back guarantee, don't you?
And just so you know... I totally noticed that my hair is softer and less frizzy after using it. I'm not even kidding you. There's a visible difference. Another added benefit we noticed is that the shower filter actually increased the water pressure in our shower. So now when we shower we get a really nice spray of water instead of the lame spray we had before. We love that!
And in case you are wondering, Mr. Shower Filter comes with a filter that lasts 6 months! Wahoooo! When you're ready for a new one they'll even auto-ship it to ya if you want. Aren't they nice?

Hi!
ReplyDeleteActually I did know that it could be harmful. I'm allergic to chlorine, it flares my asthma a lot, I can't go swimming without getting sick. I am very aware of the chlorine in our water. We filter our tap water, but I'd never even thought to look for a shower filter, what a genius idea! I would love to try this out and save my lungs! :)
I subscribed! Hope to win!!!!
ReplyDeleteYes, I did know that. A former co-worker told me about it a few years ago.
ReplyDeleteTHanks!

I actually did know that it was bad...I just didn't think there was anything you could do about it..but this thing is pretty awesome!
ReplyDeleteI can't say I really thought about the water being bad per se...I definitely thought about the stuff I put into the water and on myself(via chemicals in products)- a friend told me about these filters just this week and I put it on my christmas list! :)
ReplyDeleteSo, I'm supposed to leave a separate comment for each thing I do?! I don't want to take over your comments!
ReplyDeleteI did all the things on the list- I already followed Aquasana on Twitter but I now do on Facebook too. I also tweeted and shared on Twitter and Facebook. I added LazyMom to my google reader and also started following on Twitter and Facebook!
Hope you can count this for all the things! :)
Great giveaway opportunity!
I never knew it could be harmful! Now I really want this!

Yes, I did know you could filter shower water b/c it's not good for you. Someone at church actually purchased a couple filters for his home. Not sure if they were Aquasana or not. Great idea.
