There are so many marketing tactics to dig through to figure out which brands are actually sustainable. Eco, natural, ethical, slow fashion, plant based, ect. The list goes on. But which brands can back up their claims?

Shelby, I just wanted to let you know I just made my first purchase on earth hero last night. I have a problem with dish soap, I go through it like crazy. It makes me cringe every time I have to throw out another plastic bottle. I told my husband that’s it I’m going to try a dish bar. At first I was going to purchase from The package free store, but changed my mind and decided to check out earth hero because I thought there would be more options. I went with the best seller bestowed essentials. I also got the bubble up brush. I can’t believe I am so excited to try outs cleaning supplies, LOL. Three months ago I switched over to wall dryer balls and I won’t go back to dryer sheets. Six months ago I switched to shampoo/conditioner bars and I won’t switch back either. Baby steps Shelby baby steps. Thank you for all of the info you put out there, it’s really appreciated.

If you want to try a good dish-washing block, the one from No Tox Life is pretty great. They're a small, woman-owned, family-run business based out of Los Angeles.

@caitlinjt1972 4 года назад

I got that same dish soap bar from earthhero and I love it! (Got one for my mom and she loves it too). Would never go back to the liquid soap. My husband was skeptical about the bar but and he is on board now too! I also use Dropps for my laundry and dishwasher too thanks to Shelbi :)

I live in Phoenix, AZ so I can’t really wear them in the summer for work because they get way too hot and my feet get so sweaty they slip out of the shoes (TMI?).

My spouse is a big shoe and boot enthusiast and so we both try to buy quality made shoes with a focus on the ability to re-sole them. A video in the style of yours with Hyram would be wonderful to see since shoe wear is something we *almost* all have to wear and while Okabashi is great some of us live in climates like New England and need something more rough and tough. I know this is a late comment for this particular video but I hope you'll see it!

Haha, you're clearly a Hyram junkie as well! I've seen Upcircle at my local eco webshop, but I wonder if it would be approved by Hyram :D

i think he'd love the sustainability but not be as keen on the physical exfoliates and essential oils and would say it could be sensitive for some people

THANK YOU for this video. There is so much green washing when I’m trying to find brands. Especially when they have some small side capsule collection that is supposedly ethically made and it makes you question where the rest of it is produced. If I’m supporting a brand I want to support their ethics for all products!

I purchased Okavango at Target too!! So happy they’re not free washing!!

I would LOVE to see this made into a series and perhaps mention brands that do ship internationally? I’m in Canada and it’s hard to determine who’s greenwashing and who’s helping complete the full cycle of sustainability

I love Okabashi! I randomly bought a pair of their sandles at Walmart about 4 years ago when it was the only store and option on a road trip. They have lasted and are still so comfortable. They are so durable and seem like they will never fall apart unlike my previous sandle purchases from the likes of Old Navy and Target.

hey there :) Please do this as a series! :) if you could mention in the videos if the brands ship internationally it would be very helpful :) You are a huge inspiration to me and watching your videos always makes me feel better, thank you

I'd love to see more videos like that! 😃 Kudos to you for all the research! The other day I spent hours searching for a phone case so I know it's a lot of work to bring all these brands to us. BTW, after I researched a lot and was between 2 brands I saw your video and decided for Pela 😉 You're helping us a lot!

when you get a chance, i'd be curious to know what you think about Alaffia. i think they're doing great things, but i know that their packaging at the moment is in plastic which could be a bummer for some people. i'd also like to see how you would weigh those things (doing wonderful things for artisans + the planet but having plastic in the packaging)? Alaffia is available at Target and Walmart which tends to be fairly accessible for most people in the US.

This may be a weird question, but is there a sustainable adult toys?....

she mentioned a company in her series ‘zero waste swaps no one talks about’ i believe ep 2 (i think😅) and it definitely isn’t weird at all to ask about, we should start normalising it🥳🤗 (i’m only 15 tho so never bought one😂)
