    I’m totally happy with my Lola tampons and pads, I feel like they are well made and no frills in a pleasing way. TMI: I like their regular lube, and opted to use their Fertility Friendly Lube when trying to conceive our now-four-month old. Guess it worked??!

    I’ve been using the Lola Cleansing Wash for a few years now, and the first batch I got was great. More recently I’ve had trouble with the pump not working. However, I just glanced at their website and it looks like it’s been since reformatted so maybe they fixed the packaging issue.

    Overall very happy with my Billie razor, shaving cream, lotion, and face wipes. All of the scents are super pleasing, and the face wipes work really well for makeup & make my skin feel great. I like the unique texture of the shaving cream a lot (it starts like a gel and only foams up a little.)

    I wish the lotion came in different packaging; it’s tough to get all of the product out–I cut my bottle open to use it all up, and I won’t be reordering. Going back to my expensive favorite Kiehl’s Crème de Corps, which is a jar you can get into the corners of and you can return it to the store for recycling.

    I’m a long-time fan of Bathing Culture, having used their soap and natural sponges for a few years now. This year I finally pulled the trigger and bought their full gallon kit. That’s how obsessed I am. The scent is divine, the founders are super nice, and custoemr service is great (I got order help thru DMs on IG). After the natural sponge fully disintegrated, I made the mistake of ordering one from Public Goods and it was not of the same quality as Bathing Cultures.

    I can’t remember if it was free or what but I was sent an aluminum travel sized container to fill, it’s cute, light weight, and I use it a ton! All the brand packaging makes me happy.

    I’ve had my large and small reBoards from Material for over two years now and I’m overall super pleased. The only issue has been with the large board warping, but that’s because I put both in the dishwasher pretty often. I think Material advises hand washing only. Otherwise, love these. And I still use the warped board, just with a kitchen towel underneath. The material itself of the boards is perfect for me - it’s not too hard and not too soft, great for all your chopping. I find I use both sizes daily, and I like the holes for hanging on wall hooks if you want. The colors are fun too.

    Don’t put the big one thru the dishwasher unless you don’t mind the possibility of some warping.

    If I could justify spending 50¢ on each one, I’d keep buying Coterie diapers. I really liked them—we used them for a month or so between size Newborn and size 1. They’re suuupppeeerrrr soft and work great. I love that they’re just plain white, and the wetness indicator works well. When we moved to size two, I switched to Millie Moon brand at Target, which is closer to 30¢ per. ***HOWEVER*** I’m completely 100% dedicated to Coterie wipes. They’re the best. We tried others but they can’t compare. The size is larger, the scent is simple and inoffensive, they feel gentle enough that I sometimes wipe his mouth or neck rolls :) with them. They get allllll the poop (by which I mean sometimes you still have to use 5. That’s just how infant poop works.) And my husband loves them because the pack doesn’t dry out EVEN if you leave the pack open at your changing table. And let me tell you, you WILL leave the pack open. Leave the lid flapped open on other brands and the entire pack will be dry and useless.

    The price, though high, seems justified. Because my baby was scheduled for an early c-section, I knew he was going to be premature and small (I had a medical complication); Coterie customer support worked with me to make a custom pack with their smallest size, which I really appreciated!!!

    I’m super stoked about how long these deodorants have lasted. I got two, the N* Green is my fav, and Cedar Flora, and they’ve lasted over a year and a half. I went thru the Green scent first and am now using the other. I like that they aren’t wet or sticky like other “natural” deodorant I’ve tried. Like other “natural” d’s though, I do find I need to reapply towards the end of the day if I want full freshness. It’s fine with me, I much prefer this to more aggressive traditional product.

    Feedback

    The bar itself inside the container popped off at some point, but I just put it back and it worked fine. The packaging isn’t easily recycled, but I bought this in no small part because I thought it looked nice. And it does! I do NOT hide this away in the medicine cabinet. The green color with gold text! It makes me happy to see it on the shelf, so, yeah.

    After a lot of research during the early days of my pregnancy, I chose maternity bike shorts from Girlfriend Collective. They were my absolute favorite thing to wear during my summer pregnancy and I still wear them now four months after the birth. I got the green and blue shorts- the colors are beautiful deep dyes. The ultra ultra high waist on them completely covered my belly, which was usually more comfortable than the more common under belly cuts. The construction was smart too, there was no bothersome seam going up over my belly button. I got matching Please Recycle and Good Sport socks and they’re now some of my favs. When I officially kiss the maternity shorts goodby I’m sure I’ll replace them with a regular fit. For now, I’ve been wearing them to ballet class while I work of getting back into shape post c-section :)

    Price point feels high but the quality is unmatched!!!

    Huge fan of Flintts! They def get rid of dry mouth and the tingle is super fun!! They are sour and sweet and have a tingle that's similar to sechuan peppercorn but in these mints its from a natural flower called buzz buttons :) My fav flavor is Tangerine. I love that it comes in different 'strengths' - the cinnamon one is really good, too.

    It would be fun to have a pack that has mixed flavors!

    Yum! These olive oils are awesome. I recently ran out of a really great finishing oil from Oracle Oil, and was about to try Brightland's for the first time, but didn't want to spend the money and couldn't decide between their 'flavors.' I'm so glad I went with Graza and got the 2 pack. The sizzle size is very large but cute enough to keep out on the counter, and the Drizzle is DELICIOUS. I've been putting it on EVERYTHING. Like, instead of having toast with jam the other day, I had toast with jam, Drizzle oil, a splash of balsamic vinegar and flaky sea salt 😍 The squeeze-bottles are not zero-waste which is where I lean towards in my household, but I love the functionality and am happy with the purchase.

    I love this stuff. I came across PlantPaper in the bathroom of my favorite yoga studio, SkyTing, and have been using it for over two years. I’m a big fan of unbleached TP in my bathroom, I think it looks and feels great, but I mainly keep subscribing because the environmental impact of PlantPaper is much less than regular paper.

    Feedback

    I wish they would start producing disposable or reusable paper towel products! I mostly rely on rags and towels for household cleaning but I do still supplement with paper towels and would buy from PlantPaper if they made some.
