Hi guys!

If you’ve been following along on my Instagram you will see my eco journey (I created a highlight reel too) through stories and posts dedicated to reducing waste. I’ve always like to use clean products (skincare or laundry/cleaning products included there) but now I’m finding ways to reduce waste. Less plastic is a big part of that.

I’ve partnered with two amazing companies NetZero Company and Tru Earth. Both have eco laundry strips I was gifted which save tons of plastic laundry jugs from going into landfills, they reduce tons of pollution due to the lightweight shipping of this product (versus the heavy laundry jug alternative), and they are hypoallergenic and free of chemicals and dyes so it’s better for your skin, hair, and overall health. You also save money when you use dryer balls as I no longer buy fabric softener or dryer sheets. They are good for about 1,000 dryer loads! By the way dryer sheets are among the most toxic household items you will use. All kinds of chemicals are on those, isn’t that nuts?

Net Zero also gifted me a collapsible reusable straw with holder for my purse and I’m waiting to receive some other exciting products from both stores that I’ve been super excited to use so I’ll share more on my stories later.

Both companies have other zero waste products in their stores too! Things like reusable makeup wipe pads to eliminate cotton balls and wipes, reusable silicone ziplock style bags, bees wax wraps (a fave of mine that is reusable for covering food and won’t harm the environment), cloth grocery and produce bags, and much more. Use my code Carolina10 in each store for a discount. They are both small businesses, and they ship everywhere! Unfortunately with Tru Earth I won’t get credit if you just use the code. You also have to click this link first to shop their products (If you go with their stuff I so appreciate you clicking my affiliate link so I can get credit for introducing you)! Don’t forget to use Carolina10 to get 10% off of anything on their sites!

Let me know how you like the products once you’ve used them. Finding ways to reduce waste feels so good & you are doing so much good for the planet 🌎 ♻️ 😉

Xo,

Carolina

PS my Amazon shop link I’ve been asked for (with all my fave products on Amazon to easily shop in one page) is once again linked here!
