Plaine
Brand Feature
Plaine products was founded by sisters, Lindsey and Alison Delaplaine, with the stark recognition that every piece of plastic ever made still exists. They set out to address this by creating a brand of self care products packaged in aluminum bottles with single use plastic pumps. With your first order, you will be sent a starter set with a pump that will become your forever, single use applicator. Taking it one step further, Plaine ships a return label with your order to use when your bottles are empty and you are ready to reorder. Simply mail the bottles back and they will clean and recycle them for future orders. Their product line spans from hand soap, body wash and lotion to shampoo, conditioner and hair gel amongst other items. Some products come in a variety of scents with our most beloved being the cherry almond. Their products are chemical free. They run all ingredients used through the Environmental Working Group’s database to make sure they are safe and non-toxic. They are cruelty and vegan with Leaping Bunny certification. All products are made in the US, they are B Corporation and participate on 1% for the Planet. Shop Plaine Products and use code GWL20 at checkout for 20 percent off.

Suri
Brand Feature
We are obessed with Suri. Buy one for yourslef now and gift one too while you’re at it! This electric sonic toothbrush was developed with no stone unturned. It’s eco in so many ways, where do we begin? First off, it’s reusable, repairable and recyclable. Check, check, check! Every year over 4 billion toothbrushes are dumped into the landfill and they don’t break down. So this means your very first ever toothbrush is still floating around somewhere out there. Suri solves that problem. Their brush heads are made from plant-based corn starch, their bristles from castor-oil and the body was born using aluminium, making it it long-lasting and easily recyclable. What makes it even more superior… they offer a case with built-in UV-C led light which kills 99.9% of harmful bacteria in just one minute. This helps keep your brush clean and easy to travel with. Additionally it is USB C powered and includes a durable USB 2.0 to C cable.
Suri is a B Corp going above and beyond to build stellar products built to last. Suri has partnered with ClimatePartner to offset 100% of their brushes' emissions, including their manufacturing and transportation and the packaging is recylcable too!
