Earth Day: The Best Green, Earth-Friendly Items + Discounts

earth+day

Happy Earth Month!

“We have two homes: earth and our bodies. Take care of them".”

In honor, let’s refocus on our planet and taking care of it, I want to shine a light on some of my favorite green, sustainable, earth friendly items that I personally use and recommend!

According to the US EPA, the average American produces an astonishing 4.5 pounds of waste each day.

Whether you want to try one new green item, or want to step up your sustainable practices, there are things we can do to become environmentally friendly starting with what we buy!

Along with letting you in on some of my favorites, I’ve also got some special discounts just for you!

·       Stasher Bags

o   These reusable silicone bags are better than traditional single use bags and eliminate the amount of plastic waste.  They extend the life of produce and reduce food waste. You can freeze them, microwave them, bake or boil in them, and they’re dishwasher and oven safe. Plus, 1% goes to nonprofits that are dedicated to preserving the oceans and $1 of every bag sold in April will be donated to the Surfrider Foundation to help ocean conservation. Plus, now until April 24th, get 25% sitewide (click on title to shop)!

·       Branch basics 

o   Non-toxic, effective, sustainable cleaner based on a multi-purpose plant-based concentrate that replaces all your products. Refillable bottles (and glass bottles) mean less waste and less cost.  Use in your whole home, including dishes, laundry, kitchen, hands, even to clean produce or make a bubble bath! Plus, get $10 off when you click the title.

·       Ilia Beauty

o   My favorite! When skincare meets makeup, this favorite women-owned clean beauty brand pumps up the SPF for powerful natural skin protection. Their products are made without Parabens, Phthalates, Sulfates, GMO, Synthetic Fragrances, gluten, or talc, never test on animals, and offer free recycling of their product containers! My favorites are the lengthening mascara (and I’ve tried them ALL), the super serum skin tint, and the multi stick!

Did you know that over 74% of household items were found to contain toxic chemicals, per the Environmental Science and Technology journal?

·       The New Primal Meat Sticks and Jerky

o   I love these newer jerky sticks for their clean ingredients, amazing taste, and portable protein, but also because their meat snack packaging is recyclable and their shipping mailers are compostable! They are a great company that is really trying to go greener and it shows. Our favorite is the “Spicy”! Plus, use code NWW15 for 15% off!
