  • Bamboo Cotton Buds - 100 buds

    Bamboo Cotton Buds - 100 buds

    £2.49 per pack

    If you are a plastic cotton bud user then why not switch to bamboo? These nifty cotton buds are 100% biodegradable. These cotton buds have a bamboo stick and come in this recycled paper box. Bamboo is a sustainable product. It needs no pesticides or fertiliser to grow. It's a super fast growing grass that is more efficient at taking CO2 from the air and producing more O2 than trees.

    These buds can be disposed of by simply throwing them into your organic waste or compost.

  • Loofco Bath Time Loofah

    Loofco Bath Time Loofah

    £3.00 each

    This natural loofah is a great alternative to plastic exfoliator pads. It fits neatly into the hand and when immersed in water swells up to become a soft, spongy and flexible pad. Each pad will last for months with normal use and when worn out can be composted.

    100% plastic-free, biodegradable & vegan.

    How to use: rinse thoroughly before first use. In bath or shower, use on damp skin with soap or gel in a gentle circular motion to clean, freshen, exfoliate and invigorate skin.

    To keep loofah fresh between uses, squeeze out excess water and hang to dry from the cotton string loop. Occasionally wash in the washing machine or by hand if desired.

  • Reusable Face Pads - Cotton and Bamboo Towelling

    Reusable Face Pads - Cotton and Bamboo Towelling

    £5.25 a pack

    These gorgeous designs come from a lovely local maker - Avocado Handmade UK, based in Loughborough.

    They are washable and reusable round pads for make up removal or many other facial skin care uses. Why use them? Much better for the environment than using facial wipes. Much better for your pocket as you can use them again and again!

    We currently stock the bee design, with either a white or grey terry towelling backing.

    One side is cotton fabric, the other is bamboo terry towelling. Bamboo towelling is softer and more absorbent than cotton. It is also naturally resistant to odour, mould, mildew, and bacteria. Bamboo is also a better choice from sustainability point of view as it is a much easier crop to grow compared to cotton. The plant is naturally resistant to insects or infecting pathogens so requires little or no pesticides. It requires a lot less water to grow than cotton. It is also very fast growing and self replenishes, producing new plants itself.

    Pads measure approximately 3 inches in diameter. There are 6 in a pack.

    Wash on a normal cotton wash. You may wish to pop them in a mesh bag to keep them all in one place when dirty and in the wash.

  • Biork Crystal Deodorant Stick

    Biork Crystal Deodorant Stick

    £14.00 each

    Unscented and hypoallergenic, this truly eco roll-on deodorant is housed in a 100% recyclable and biodegradable cork container. Free from plastic, aluminium chlorohydrate, alcohol, perfumes, parabens, preservatives and dyes.

    I’ve been trialling this deodorant during the heatwave and ever since - it’s coped with me lugging the gazebo and tables out of Katy the van, setting up the stall, running a market, packing everything away again, doing the housework, going on several long, fast-paced stomps. The result? No smell! I don’t pretend to understand the science, but here it is for you anyway!

    Potassium crystal is a mineral compound made up of alum and potassium crystals - a completely natural product, which people have been using since antiquity. Sweating is a natural bodily function that regulates body temperature. Many bacteria find sweat zones to be the perfect environment in which to multiply. These bacteria are responsible for unpleasant odour.

    Biork crystal deodorant slows the production of bacteria and prevents the build-up of unpleasant odours. It lets the skin breath and perspire naturally.

    This is a natural anti-bacterial product, perfect for all types of skin – even the most sensitive.

    Instructions for use: Moisten the tip of the crystal stick and glide it gently over your skin. Remember to dry the stick with, i.e., a towel after use.

    ‘But what about the cork’ I hear you cry! In true Zero Waste spirit, the cork holder can be re-purposed around the home - see here for some creative ideas from manufacturers!
