Wild deodorant
It might seem weird to buy someone a deodorant for Christmas, but hear us out. Wild is a sustainable natural solid deodorant that you can buy refills for in a whole host of scents. With aerosols heading to landfill more often than not, this is a great eco-friendly alternative to keeping fresh!
Reusable cotton pads
Reusable cotton pads are also a great option if you’re hoping to switch out your toiletries for more sustainable alternatives. While cotton is a natural material, the pads we toss in the bin everyday are also likely to contain synthetic materials, use huge amounts of water to make and can take months to decompose. These machine washable, soft velvet alternatives, which can be used thousands of times, are more eco-friendly and inexpensive in the long run!
Togetherbands
These bands are made from 100% recycled ocean plastic, while the clasp is made from decommissioned illegal firearms, proceeds of which are used to tackle gun violence in the US. Choose a pair from between 17 different colours, each representing one of the UN’s sustainable climate development goals. Whether you pick the project you’re most passionate about, or the band you like the most, your money will go towards supporting a sustainable development project.
