Alongside the toothbrush, we have the Truthpaste which was developed by Marissa Battrick who is passionate about natural, cruelty and waste-free products. With benefits from Aloe Vera, Neem, Myrrh and being palm oil-free, there are no artificial chemicals being used in this product and the natural properties help fight bacterias in your mouth.

Reusable sanitary pads is an idea that is perfect for whilst you’re on the go. Mama Designs know the fear for us women running out of sanitary pads – now we don’t need to worry and we are helping the environment too. These pads are soft, discrete and absorbent with a 100% cotton top and 100% waterproof bottom, which you won’t get with supermarket sanitary products. You can carry on with your day, whilst feeling comfortable as if it’s not there!

It includes a shampoo bar, shaving bar, sensitive facial bar and exfoliating bar. With different citrus and fruity smells in each bar, they are made with their own bespoke essential oil blend.

It has been estimated that over the course of a year, mini-bar sales could save the environment from over one million single-use plastic bottles.

Next, we have a female-first razor brand Estrid. The razor is vegan and includes Aloe Vera, Shea Butter and Cocoa Butter strips on the blades, perfect for your skin, planet and your body.

The brand offers a subscription service to replace the non-animal substance blades. Once you’ve chosen a razor, you will also receive a matching attachment for the wall and a silicone pouch to place it in.

Another product great for your travel bag are the Moxi Cleansing Pads.

The face pads are infused with a cleanser including Aloe and Carrot extract and most importantly free from any skin irritant.

Also for your face and body we have Kear. Their pure products embrace their Grecian authenticity, whilst using simple but effective ingredients such as natural beeswax. Their products are free from synthetic chemicals, toxic preservatives or any other unsafe ingredients.

The AntiOxidant Face Balm is a versatile product, which is effective on the neck and under-eyes, as well as being used as a moisturiser and a night/day cream. A small amount goes a long way and leaves your skin silky smooth and smelling sweet. The Hydrate Relax Body Oil is a non-greasy and lightweight oil used to moisturise the skin and also ease any skin discomfort and irritation from dryness. It can also be used for a muscle-soothing massage.

Lastly, to finish off your eco-friendly toiletry bag the Go Green Wetbrush is a revolutionary brush that is able to glide through tangles without the pain and damage to your hair. With its Wetbrush IntelliFlex bristles it will bend around the knots without pulling the hair. This brush is made from all-natural biodegradable plant starch making it break down naturally in landfill within five years. It’s great for all types of hair whether you’re old or young so you can go through life with pain-free tangles.
