Inika Long Lash Vegan Mascara

MY entire life I have been trialling mascaras. Since trying to find more ethical options I have tried a couple, and this one I do really like. BUT it is plastic. Clump free, separating, lengthening, black… soft and gentle on my eyes. It feels conditioning and lovely. ☕☕☕☕ – only 4 out of 5 coffees

Hydrophil

☕☕☕☕☕ 5/5 coffees Keen to get my husband off the plastic toothbrushes, I purchased him a Hydrophil toothbrush. This is a bamboo, one use toothbrush. To my surprise he really loved it and was happy to make the change – no questions asked! (Unlike his feelings on some of my swaps!) https://hydrophil.com/en/

Produce Bags

One of the very first things I switched was how I bought fruit and vegetables. It is not perfect, there are so many things that I still cannot buy loose but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try. Produce bags have gained popularity over the years and now I see them available to purchase quite frequently.

Live CoCo

I have an electric toothbrush, which I love. However plastic toothbrushes, and plastic toothbrush heads are a huge problem for those of us trying to live more sustainably. I discovered Live Coco – they work by having a closed loop recycling system. This means once you have used the head you return it to Live

Cleaning Sachets

I love Iron and Velvet. They smell amazing. I bought the mixed pack of cleaners and also purchased myself some glass spray bottles. You just put the sachet in the jar with a bit of water and it is good to go. I personally think these are amazing. I have tried other brands – here

Pit Putty

I have purchased this time and again in the lavender and lemon scent. It comes in a tin that can be washed out and repurposed. The consistency is a paste that I just wipe over my armpit with my fingers. It rubs in easily and smells lovely! IT definitely lasts all day. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! ☕☕☕☕☕

Chocolonely

Please buy this delicious and fairtrade chocolate. it is worth every penny and really does not cost much more than a standard chocolate bar, but it does so much!  I have not tried all of the flavours but honestly, it is delicious. I have allowed my husband and Dad to taste it and they agree
