Branding

Aromatherapy-based laundry detergents, mists and treatments that care for specific textiles and item types. I love using the mists as they condition and refresh my items in between washes meaning I don't have to wash my garments as often! The on-the-go treatments are lifesaving too when you're on the go and live in a busy city, especially the crease release. They have also bought out the mess and waste-free laundry detergent strips - so clever?! Each sheet holds up to 40g of liquid detergent and cleans just as well without any use of nasty toxins or plastic? Revolutionary - me and my family are obsessed with the strips. And the packaging is gorgeous

Daye

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS BRAND. As a millennial, I don't have much brand loyalty, the brand has to really impress me for me to buy it over and over. Daye has come in to my life during a very stressful work period, and was recommended by my boss. The CBD tampons have completely changed the activities I am able to do. I was struggling with very painful periods that only co-codamol was able to shift. Daye has given me a more natural option to enjoy life during those days. I love their branding, packaging, the fact they feature different feminist innovators in their ecom cards. I have taken part in their collabed life drawing sessions with Brixton Life Drawing. I have got SO MANY of my friends to switch to Daye.

The pricing is on a more expensive side, making it more difficult for some to afford these products. Maybe a more affordable subscription for those on low incomes or receiving certain benefits?

This is a great beauty concept with a strong brand aesthetic that stands out amongst a slightly saturated market of beauty box subscriptions. Having order a few times, the latest boxes were quite unexciting with smaller sizes and more common products. The range of brands available on the size is really good, and they have managed to grow a trusting community with genuine reviews which is very hard to do. Price wise some boxes can be more expensive. Great for gifts.

Feedback

Some boxes can be quite underwhelming with brands and products that aren't doing particularly well and this can feel like a slight rip-off at times.

I really love this brand. Everything from their brand design, to customer service consistency and the quality of items. It is an investment brand, and a bonus-at-work treat but worth the money. Timeless footwear you will love for a long time, and that will go with most of your outfits. Highly recommend as a gift.

Feedback

It would be great to see the brand work with sustainable footwear fabric companys to use renewable materials in their footwear.

Bloom & Wild

I love bloom & wild. Have purchased as gifts predominantly, each time the recipient received fresh flowers that lasted a lot longer than supermarket bouquets. The subscription is definitely aimed at more middle class, higher income audience. Though they do introductory offers every now and then so it's nice for lower income people to try the service. My favourite? The mini xmas tree <3 that is one item I treat myself to every year, and highly recommend as a gift.

Feedback

It would be lovely to see a more affordable subscription service for those on lower income or a discount code.

My sister absolutely swears by Gymshark. I love the brand's designs, the clothing is super comfy too although on a smaller side I would say. So whatever your size, up it by one or two. They got their price point spot on - and it's also great they do sales where you are able to pick up some pieces when on a tighter budget or lower income.

Feedback

Sizing - a lot of clothes come up a lot smaller. And sustainability - would be great to see the brand work with tech-led start ups that are innovating new fabrics from renewable sources and im not talking about 'recycled polyester'

Absolutely love these drinks. I have had a few occasions to try these at various private launches and PR events. The branding is very clever and the drinks actually taste REALLY good. + the milk is suuuuuper tasty, but a little on the expensive side. Always look forward to the event if I hear the Minor Figures name ;) PS can we also give a standing ovation to the creative team?! Well done on pulling together a strong brand, with consistent brand and content items across platforms. And they're B corp!!!

Feedback

Honestly, not a minor improvement comes to mind.

My fave Oat milk brand! I personally looooooove Oatly drinks. They are the most similar taste and consistency to milk, and taste even better than normal milk. Price point - i think it's very competitive, with most supermarkets doing offers on the drink making it more accessible to those on lower incomes and in tougher circumstances. The range is super extensive, and no matter what your preference you will definitely find a drink to suit your taste buds. My fave? Deffo the Barista Edition Oat Drink 🥛🌱
