At B_E_E, or Beauty Engineered for Ever, they “believe being green doesn't mean you have to compromise on beauty and performance.” So, everything they do is “designed for pleasure, function and the environment.” Oh! How very Treehugger! Based in New Zealand, the company produces four household cleaning products made from essential oils and other natural ingredients such as coconut, palm oil, sugar, kawakawa (whatever that is!) and orange oil and excludes harmful chemicals. B_E_E is the only range of cleaning products in New Zealand that’s got Environmental Choice accreditation, meaning it meets the stringent eco-standards endorsed by the New Zealand Ministry for the Environment. Oh—and did you see that cool packaging? We’re total suckers for it. Go B_E_E! Thanks for the tip, Anya! ::B_E_E [by MO]

"Kawakawa is a close cousin of the kava plant and like it has medicinal compounds" according to Google anyhow.

I wish these products were available in the US. The two I've tried, "I"ll make everything sparkle" and "Trust me with your delicates", impressed me with their suitability to the job, their fresh scent, and their environmental claims. The cute names make unpleasant chores a bit more fun.
