SUSTAINABLE BAG ESSENTIALS
Phone, wallet, keys and OH MY GUM! : these are my ultimate bag essentials and I am hoping the latter will be for many of you too.
I created OH MY GUM! as a chic and sustainable alternative to regular mainstream chewing gum that is made with plastic - tasty plant-based chewing gum that you would be proud to have in your bag and proud to offer if someone ever asked ‘do you have some gum?’.
Along with OH MY GUM!, I wanted to share some of my favourite sustainable bag essentials so that you can step out in style this Earth Day and beyond.
Tort make the most beautiful collection of hair accessories out of eco-resin material that are suitable for all hair types and outfits. They make gorgeous retro-style hair clips, barrettes and clasps. I just love them and I love the fact each clip is named after powerful women in the founder’s life.
Hand sanitiser by The Good Mist
I love this gentle non-sticky hand sanitiser as you can get a set of 2 : a hand sanitiser spray plus a perfect bag-friendly hand sanitiser with a hidden twist spray head and this can be refilled. I have tried The Floral one which smells incredible and I love that all their packaging is sustainably sourced, recyclable and beautifully designed.
An organic and cruelty-free multipurpose beauty balm with regenerating pomegranate and rosehip that comes in a lovely biodegradable pot - the first of its kind in the UK. Perfect for sustainably treating your hands and lips on the go.
I always have a foldable reusable shopping bag in my bag in case I pop into a shop and buy more than I can carry. These Baggu shopping bags are my go-to: they are durable, come in lots of pretty prints and are sustainably sourced. LOVE!
