Eco made easy!


By Guest Styler | 3rd August 2020

Reducing your environmental impact can often land in the too-hard basket. And hey we’re not here to judge. Life is busy and messy and its often all too easy to fall back on our old routines, relying on products we’ve always used. But, we’re here to debunk the myth that an eco-friendly lifestyle is out of reach. Becoming a more conscious consumer can start with just a few small changes that all accumulate to a more sustainable lifestyle. As cliché as it might sound, even small changes can help to take care of our planet. So, where do you start?

An eco-bathroom is a super achievable place to begin your going-green evolution. As eco-friendly brands are ever-expanding, there are so many amazing options available to us to choose healthy, clean products! We’ve listed out some super simple, sustainable swaps you can make to your bathroom today. Everything from your shower accessories, to your beauty routine, can be made a little greener, with no sacrifice to quality!

All the accessories

  • Swap out plastic accessories such as your shower caddy, toilet brush, toothbrush holder or nail brush for a more natural substance like bamboo.
  • Replace single-use cotton pads and buds with an organic, biodegradable option.
  • Swap out plastic body buffs for natural sponges.
  • Bamboo is the most resource-efficient plant on the planet – swap out your bath towels and face cloths for a luxurious bamboo option. The planet will thank you and they feel fab as well! Side note: Make sure you line dry your towels, reducing your energy consumption (and bill!).
