Zero Waste Lifestyle

Natural moth protection without chemicals!
American red cedar has a fragrant aroma that is pleasing to people but repels moths. Therefore, you can keep your clothes moth-free with cedar wood products. Place 2 - 5 cedar pieces up per wardrobe unit in such a way that they are not covered by clothes. In drawers or storage compartments 2 pieces are adequate. Place the cedar items on a piece of paper to protect the clothing from the oils in the cedar. When the scent begins to fade, rough the wood slightly with sandpaper. This type of moth protection is absolutely environmentally friendly, since American red cedar is not an endangered plant cultivated under governmental regulations.

The premium hemp & cotton fleece for a luxurious, hypo-allergenic cloth, perfect for light exfoliation, removing make-up and oil cleansing.

Hemp creates one of the most sustainable fabrics in the world and is hypo-allergenic and non-irritating to the skin. It provides all the warmth and softness of a natural textile and is an exceptionally durable and strong fabric.

Hemp requires no pesticides, crowds out weeds without herbicides, controls erosion of the topsoil, and produces oxygen. It is also a very fast growing crop, producing high fiber yield per acre making it a very sustainable choice!

Made from 55% hemp and 45% organic cotton, size is 11"x10".

Care: Fabric is not pre-washed, so wash and dry before use. To clean, wash cold or warm with like colours using your detergent of choice. Tumble dry low or hang to dry. Fabric will become softer and reach maximum absorbency after a few wash cycles. Expect some shrinkage. Fabric may shed some lint until they've been washed a few times. This is normal!

NEW Organic Brushed Cotton Unpaper Towels • set of 6

We love this new fabric! It's organic, a bit heavier-weight than our flannel cloths, and it's durable and soft like we expect from lovely natural cotton.

Eliminate the use of paper towels and napkins with this eco-friendly replacement!

PERFECT FOR
wiping messy hands and faces after meals
spill clean-up
washing and drying dishes
mealtime napkins
lint-free cleaning and dusting
always keep a spare or two in your pocket to use as a handkerchief (that's right, we said it), or to have as an emergency wipe.

Can be easily rolled around an empty paper towel roll to use with your paper towel holder. Each unpaper towel is single ply and measures 12"x10" and is 100% organic cotton.

Care: Unpaper towels are not pre-washed, so to fluff up the fibers and reach maximum absorbency, wash and dry a couple of times before putting them to work. Machine wash with like colours using your detergent of choice. Tumble or hang to dry.

*Do not use fabric softener or dryer sheets as they can decrease absorbency.

The zero-waste vegan DISH BLOCK® dishwashing soap is a cleaning powerhouse with a rich, sudsy lather. Cuts stubborn grime and grease on dishes, pots and pans. With added aloe vera to be gentle on your hands.

You can even use it for cleaning-duty all over your home. Take stains out of laundry, take labels off of jars, spot clean your carpet, use it to wipe down counters... it's a truly multipurpose product.

Recommended: Pair with an Eco-Sponge for plates, bowls and cups, and a Moso Bamboo Soap Shelf to keep it drained and dry between uses. No Tox Life also now has Casa Agave™ dish brushes for general dish washing.

How to use: Scrape dishes to remove excess grease and food. Wet sponge, for plates, bowls and cups, and rub the DISH BLOCK® bar to create suds. (Repeat as needed to refresh suds.) Wash items and rinse well. Works in warm or cold water. We prefer warm water for best results. For pots and pans, use a scrubber or scourer.

For extra sparkly dishes: wipe dishes dry with a cloth.

Pro kitchen tip: Use the same DISH BLOCK® suds to clean your sink when it gets dirty, this can be used on porcelain, stainless, stone and glass sinks safely. We have seen customers use it to clean dirty & stained oven top surfaces as well!

Please note: using a strong scourer exclusively on the block will wear it down faster than using a soft sponge.

Since it is a 100% handmade product, the weight may vary slightly.
