1. Bamboo Toothbrush 🌿
Goodbye plastic, hello sustainability! Personally, I made the switch to a bamboo toothbrush a few years ago and couldn't be happier. It's biodegradable and takes care of my smile while helping to reduce plastic waste.

2. Toothpaste Tablets 🦷
I'm obsessed with these toothpaste tablets! They are SO convenient; a mega hit when it comes to travel. The brand I use is called Huppy and your first order includes a reusable aluminum container. Then, on your next refill orders, they arrive in compostable packaging.
Don't worry, it doesn't feel like you're eating sand. It works just as well as regular toothpaste and my mouth feels 100% clean afterwards. These tablets are the perfect choice for a healthy, eco-friendly smile.
Tip: They foam so much that just half is enough, so they last twice as long!

4. Solid Dish Soap
If you've never seen dish soap in solid form, I invite you to give it a try. The #1 ingredient in many of the liquid products we buy is water. In other words, you're buying water with a little bit of the concentrate! By making this change, you eliminate the need for plastic bottles and have a product that takes up less space and lasts much longer than conventional liquid soaps.
Tip: Give it a try and be patient. Remember that it takes time to create new habits and routines, but you can do it!

5. Reusable Zip Lock Bag
With these reusable and resealable silicone bags, I have significantly reduced my consumption of single-use plastic bags. They are perfect for storing food and carrying to-go snacks.
Tip: Consider rinsing out old plastic zip lock bags and reusing them. I never buy the plastic ones, but they do end up at my house from family members who give me snacks when they see me. I just wash them and use them many, many more times!

6. Beeswax Wrap
This beeswax wrap is a sustainable alternative to plastic wrap. I use it to wrap food to keep it fresh longer. They come in different sizes, so they also work for covering containers that don't have a lid. it's super easy to clean and reuse!
