These are items I think are great for beginners looking to make sustainable swaps in their every day life. These all work (in my opinion) as well as the originals, and there are some great hard-wearing brands in here that last ages.

At home (cleaning)
I am LITERALLY obsessed with smol. I love everything they make, especially their laundry detergent. I've used the laundry, dishwasher, and surface spray, all are brilliant!

I absolutely love their natural sponges and dish brushes. They work perfectly - just like normal sponges, but at the end of their life, can simply be chopped up and composted.

These do need to be composted, rather than being thrown in the bin but they are great for our dog, make everything so much easier!
Adios Plastic
Our dog is besotted with these - he will literally choose them over treats and other snacks. We are super happy with them, especially because Lily's Kitchen is a BCorp

This is actually an unbreakable toy and our dog loves it - we give him half a dentistick in it every night and he goes crazy for it!

I like Bunty pet products a lot, because most of them are excellent quality and usually pretty indestructible. I use their extendable lead for our dog and it's brilliant! He'd broken 4 before this, but this one has lasted forever.

Really happy with these guys - I've used their toothpaste and deodorant so far, no complaints at all. I'd love if they did other products so I can try them too!

I love all of their products and think most people would have a great experience with them

Sadly I can only recommend these via Amazon, but they are genuinely really great. I use them to take off all kinds of make up including eye make up, and everyone I've recommended them to so far has loved them
