2021 Resolution!

My resolution this year is to finally get rid of all of those single use items we use so often and replace them with reusable, natural, eco-friendly alternatives!

So it’s only the third week of January but so far I have swapped...

Colored sponges for compostable washable natural colored sponges

Loofa for an all natural vegetable fiber body sponge

Cotton squares (for makeup removing) for washable bamboo make up pads

Coffee Filters for a washable coffee filter basket

Lint roller for a ChomChom 

Hand Soap for a refillable bamboo soap dispenser

Armor Hammer Laundry Detergent for Meyers Laundry Detergent Concentrate

Dawn Dish Soap for Meyers Dish Shop

Playtex Tampons for Organic plant based tampons

Dryer Sheets for Wool Balls (tip: put a few drops of essential oils on for a fragrance upgrade)

Everything is hyperlinked if there is any interest in researching the substitutes further yourself! Together we can lower our carbon footprint on the world. 

Ps. I am merely just a young homeowner trying to be earth friendly with my lifestyle. If anyone has any suggestions for any more ways to switch from single use items to reusable items I am all ears and thank you in advance!
