For many people, the products used for personal care are among the most common sources of single-use plastic and waste.
We created this Personal Care Sustainability Sampler Kit to offer products that replace the traditional wasteful items with new products that are easy to use. Many are from small businesses here in Virginia.
We’re giving away these kits for you to sample the alternative products that are good for you, and good for the environment.
Follow us on Social Media, our weekly blog, and our eNews to learn about giveaways.
Shampoo Bar
Reduce plastic and nourish your hair with a shampoo bar by KeithasArtfulGarden. Free of harsh chemicals and handmade in Virginia.
shaving bar
Traditional shaving creams come in plastic, aerosol containers. With shaving bars, you get a quality shave without the waste. Crafted with natural ingredients and locally-made. Your skin, and the environment, will thank you!
bamboo toothbrush and toothpowder
Keep your teeth and the environment clean with bamboo toothbrush and toothpowder. Bamboo toothbrushes are biodegradable, gentle on gums and teeth, and BPA-free. Toothpowder is mineral rich, natural, and highly effective at removing plaque. Made by Green Life Apothecary on Etsy.
Makeup remover cloth
Remove makeup with a reusable, eco-friendly cloth. Free of irritants that disposable wipes may contain, machine-washable, and soft.
Bamboo cotton swabs
Regular q-tips are not recyclable and contribute to pollution. This alternative from The Nature Giving Shop on Etsy has a bamboo shaft and 100% cotton tip. Biodegradable and decomposable. Locally-made.
