Smells like....milkshake??

After finishing a long overdue painting adventure in my house, a couple of hours later, the only thing indicating the space has been painted is the color stuck to my fingernails. Needless to say, I was very happy. I used Fresh Aire paint in one room (available at the Home Depot), and a low-VOC Sherwin Williams in the other. And although neither smelled great, painting wasn't bad at all, and I didn't even have to open up a ton of windows. Both are companies and brands I recommend (and have before on my blog), and I love their colors and their quality. But, the smell isn't 100% gone. So imagine what it would be like if it didn't even smell like paints while you were working... more like milkshake.

Well, that's what Anna Sova paints do. That, and probably make you hungry while you work. Made from 99% food based ingredients like milk casein, titanium dioxide, food grade bamboo cellulose, and food emulsifiers. All ingredients in foods you eat, like milkshakes, donuts and chocolate bars. All this and VOC free, these high quality paints offer you a ton of color choices and peace of mind. A pricey affair at about $60 a gallon, but worth the investment. And if you are a particularly olfactory focused kinda person, avoiding that awful, toxic paint smell isn't the only benefit to Anna Sova paints. You can even add essential oils to the paint to perfume your home in just the scent you like. A little lavender, vanilla, lemongrass, or leave it plain and you've still got milkshake! No matter what, your nose, and your lungs, will thank you.
