*drum roll please* We're rolling out the red carpet (or should we say the silver lining?) for our latest innovation - the all-new Refillable Deodorant Case, your natural deodorant stick’s new sidekick.
It’s Plastic-Free July, and it’s high time we chatted about swapping out those pesky plastic products for some seriously cool, sustainable alternatives. Whether it’s for your bathroom, kitchen, or daily commute, we’ve got some stellar brands that are leading the charge in making our lives greener. Let's get into it!
Ever wondered about how long your deodorant packaging hangs around after you've moved on? With only 5% of global plastics getting recycled, most roll-ons, sticks and cans are here to stay way past their pit duty. But hey, not all heroes wear capes - some come in cardboard tubes! Here’s 5 reasons why our biodegradable cardboard tube deodorants are the superheroes of the armpit world and the best-smelling way to help reduce waste.
Here’s a real mind blower: did you know that recycling just ONE aluminium tube saves enough energy to power a TV for 3 hours? This is because producing recycled aluminium consumes only 5% of the energy used to make new aluminium. In fact, aluminium is one of the most recyclable materials out there. It can be recycled infinitely without degrading its quality.
Way back in 2015 when Woohoo Body first started, our very first deodorant was a deodorant paste While there are loads of folks who love our pastes, some people prefer an application where you don’t have to get deodorant on your fingers or touch your armpits. Enter our deodorant sticks!!
Reading product labels should be easy, right? So why does it sometimes feel like labels are written in an entirely different language? If you find yourself staring at product labels wondering how in the world you’re supposed to understand them without a science degree, you’re not alone!
Now that’s a really good question. These are words that are thrown around all the time, but what exactly do they mean? Aren’t they all pretty much the same thing?
Nope! In fact, they’re quite different. But they’re all related, as they all help us understand what can be done with a piece of packaging when you’re finished with it.
Sadly, like most other industries, the personal care market has a pretty significant negative impact on the environment. This is primarily because the bulk of products come in single use, hard-to-recycle plastic. However some brands are saying “budge over plastic, we’re opting for bamboo.” Others are swapping out certain materials (like single-use plastic) and nasty ingredients (petrochemicals and palm oil, for example) for more sustainable alternatives. Here are a few sustainable swaps we are totally all for this Plastic Free July (and beyond).
Yesterday was World Environment Day, so today we're going to get a bit green on you and tell you about something cool we did this week... We officially became Plastic Neutral!
