At this point, if you're not concerned about climate change, you've got to be kidding yourself. Large corporate waste and single-use plastics are definitely destroying this planet, and there's really no way around it. So what do you do as a consumer who is trying to make responsible choices and lessen your own personal impact on the planet?
Shopping with companies who have promised to lower their carbon footprint and source sustainable products is a good place to start. Salvos is an affordable store that sells home, beauty, and health products that are attractive, affordable, and, most importantly, work.
The entire catalog of products is fantastic, but I've chosen my favorites, which, yes, I actually use. Here are my editor picks:
The Eco-Friendly All-Purpose Cleaner
$19.95
from
Multipurpose cleaners are something every household has to have, and there's a lot of garbage floating around. What I like about this cleaner from Veles is that it's tough on grease and streaks, and it comes in the most attractive and satisfying bottle to hold and spray.
Cork Yoga Block
If you're trying to get back into yoga this year, like I am, these yoga blocks are a must-buy. They are a great height for intermediate yoga practitioners and are perfect for arm stands and added support.
So Hot Right Now Biodegradable Deodorant
This fantastic-smelling and effective deodorant comes in a cardboard sheath to eliminate single-use plastic waste. The scent is subtle and lovely and appropriate for any gender with notes of powdery musks, ylang ylang, sandalwood, and patchouli.
Cedar & Suede Scented Candle
Finding affordable candles that smell yummy and look cool isn't always easy. The candles from Public Goods are always a treat. This Cedar & Suede scent is intoxicating and cozy.
Walnut Scrubber Sponge
This hypoallergenic sponge is made of vegetable cellulose and is one tough scrubber! Exchange your traditional toxic sponges with this nonharmful option.
