When trying to be more eco-friendly in the bathroom, a great place to start is your shampoo and conditioner. Instead of purchasing these products in plastic, why not opt for a package free bar instead? Or, in the case of Plaine Products, a refillable shampoo and conditioner that comes in a metal bottle! In today’s post, I’ll be sharing a full Plaine Products review – should you try out their shampoo and conditioner??

Hey earth muffins! If you are looking to reduce your impact in the bathroom, swapping to bar products is a great suggestion. I’ve been testing out a ton of shampoo bars over the years… And, recently, a new conditioner as well! When I ordered from Ethique this summer I was able to choose a free mini bar; I picked the Guardian conditioner. Now that I’ve been able to test it out for a bit, I thought it would be the perfect time to share my Guardian conditioner review with you all. Let’s jump right into it!

Hey earth muffins! I recently made some french onion soup… And yes, it was fully plant-based! How is this possible you might ask – because it was made with No Beef Broth beef broth alternative from Ocean’s Halo. Yupp, vegan “beef” broth is a thing; and it was delicious! But let’s not get too ahead of ourselves. In today’s No Beef Broth review I will be sharing all my thoughts if this product is worth it or not. Let’s jump right into it!

Hey earth muffins! When I started my current job two years ago, I invested in some nice work shoes from Rothy and All Birds. Unfortunately, my All Bird flats recently got a hole in them… So, I decided to find some other sustainable shoe company to test out. I saw some YouTubers talking about Burudani – a new brand on the market selling “sustainable” shoes for an affordable price. In today’s post, I will share my Burudani shoes review with you all – and let you know if the company is truly sustainable or not!

Hey earth muffins! Meal delivery subscriptions like Hello Fresh and Home Chef have been increasing in popularity over the years. While convenient, these services come with a lot of packaging waste. In addition, the shipping of these kits also has a negative impact on the environment. Sunbasket is advertised as being a healthy, more sustainable alternative to other brands on the market… To put this to the test, I ordered 4 meals from Sunbasket to get a full understanding of the service. Keep reading for all my thoughts on Sunbasket’s meal delivery!
What I Ordered
Sunbasket offers two options for meals. First, there are Fresh & Ready Meals. These are delivered ready to eat – just pop them in the fridge, and heat up for dinner! Most of these meals can be frozen for later if you can’t get around to eating them right away. The second option are Meal Kits. These come with everything you need to cook up a delicious meal. To try out both, I bought 2 Fresh & Ready Meals and 2 Meal Kits – one vegetarian for me and the other with meat for my boyfriend.

Hey earth muffins! Back in September I wrote a post about CleanO2’s carbon capture bar soaps… And let’s just say I still love them (and have gotten my boyfriend hooked too!). Now that they came out with a line of shampoo and conditioner bars, I was excited to give them a try. CleanO2 kindly sent over their Co-Wash for curly hair, so let’s get right into my thoughts in this CleanO2 co-wash review!
What I Love About This Product
Like I mentioned in my CleanO2 soap review, their products are made using an awesome carbon capture process. The founders of the company created the CarbinX, which captures carbon dioxide emissions from building heating systems. The result of this process is non-toxic pearl ash/potassium carbonate… Which is then upcycled into their sustainable products!

Hey earth muffins! If you are looking for an eco-friendly swap in the bathroom, I recommend switching to a shampoo bar. Lush has a ton of great ones to try out… I’ve tried a bunch of them so far; today I’ll be sharing my thoughts on the Soak and Float shampoo bar. Keep reading for everything I love (and dislike) about this sustainable product!
What I Love About This Shampoo Bar
The first pro of this shampoo bar is that it is a great sustainable alternative to typical shampoos. No plastic bottle, no packaging, and no watered down shampoo. It is always better to choose bar over bottles because they are a much more eco, zero waste swap. Lush does a great job with shipping (if you can’t pick up the bar in a local Lush store). The box it comes in is small and fits the product exactly. I love that this brand uses water soluble packing peanuts too!

Hey earth muffins! If you have been reading this blog for awhile, you will know that I am a huge fan of Lush’s shampoo bars. Once or twice a year I will place a large order on Lush to stock up on bars (and reduce my shipping impact). This time, I decided to try out some of their low waste makeup too! Back in high school I used to be much more experimental with makeup. I remember absolutely loving to wear blue eyeliner; why couldn’t I rock it now? So, I purchased Lush’s blue “Motivation” eyeliner… Keep reading for a full Lush liquid eyeliner review!
What I Love About this Product
First up, this is a great sustainable eyeliner alternative! The bottle is made of glass which can be recycled or reused once you use up the product. It also doesn’t come with a brush which is awesome because I already have my own. (You can of course buy a brush from Lush/drugstore if you don’t already have one) Lush also does a great job when shipping your products. The box is small and fits only what you ordered; in addition, it is packed full of corn packing peanuts that dissolve in water. Amazing!
