Easy Eco Swaps

The market is now swamped with eco-friendly products and can be a minefield on where to start to invest your money first.

Here are some ideas:

Bathroom: (Obviously going to plug in my own products here!)

Bottle Shampoo	Shampoo Bars (www.washla.uk)
Bottle Conditioner	Conditioner Bars (www.washla.uk)
Shower Gel	Soap Bars (www.washla.uk)
Plastic Toothbrushes	Bamboo Toothbrushes
Toothpaste Tubes	Toothpaste Tablets

Kitchen:

Dish Sponge	Compostable Brush
Washing Up Liquid	Dish Soap or Refillable Washing Liquid
Kitchen Towels	Reusable Cloth Wipes
Liquid Detergents	Laundry Strips or powder
Cling Film	Silicone Food Covers

All these can be easily found under one roof. With plenty of zero-waste shops around and online retailers, you won't need to be searching individually for these items. 

Avoiding Single Use 

These single used items can be cleaned and reused

• Take Away Containers
• Glass Jars
• Cleaning spray bottles

Once you start with some of these changes, it really changes your attitude on many other things that you normally dispose of. I can’t stop collecting glass jars even though I don’t have any use for them yet.

Refuse Reduce Reuse!
