Reel Paper sells 100% bamboo toilet paper. Not only are they sustainable, but they give back and donate some of their profits to help build toilets for those in need! They’re one of my favorite bamboo toilet paper companies!

2. Candlessentials

Coconut wax hand poured candles are the way to GO! When you purchase a candle you’ll also be able to grow a garden! Yep, you read that right. The box the candles come in is wildflower seed paper!

And they’re vegan body butter is great for dry winter skin when you need something extra moisturizinng!

5. OUI the People

OUI is targeted towards sensitive skin and is super inclusive… so it’s a big thumbs up from me! They’re here to help reduce the fact that 2 billion plastic razors end up in landfill each year! On their website you’ll find safety razors, shaving cream and other body care products.

Bohten is the place to get yourself a pair of glasses. I bought my blue light glasses from them and love them! Bohten strives to use as many discarded materials as possible. They are working towards having their full manufacturing process in Ghana in the next 5 years. So if you’re looking for glasses, definitely check them out!
