So I love being environmeny friendly. I bring my own bags to stores. I recycle and compost my food scraps. It’s pretty overwhelming, also expensive, to start this journey so I compiled this list of things I’ve used or knew someone who has! Now all of these things come from my personal journey! Another thing is that I don’t have one or two of these items but I have something extremely similar. Thrifting is key! Jars and tupperware are so easy to thrift. Kitchen items are probably the easiest to thrift. I also used other products i owned till they ran out before I purchased these alternatives. I hope this list helps you in your eco journey or gives you great gift ideas!

Hand Soap:

(Even bar soap is way cooler but some people like liquid)

(^any of these bottles and concentrated cleaners are great)

(Sticking to “solid bars” is best. Transporting liquids are hard. You can buy whatever hair wash bars if you don’t like this “pack”)

(davids is great! If you order on their website you can request no cap and “key” so you can just reuse the cap and key that comes with the first one. If you get ten “keys” you can send them back to them for a free tube)

(Lotion is expensive to buy in a bar so its best to find a Zero Waste/ Refill store near you)

(there’s video on the internet on how to use stasher bags to pop popcorn!! i actually love this method! i also use snack bags, or freezer bags, that have the ziplock top! i run them through dishwashers and they make great ziplocks!)
