Throughout my search for healthy and eco-friendly personal care products, I’ve tried quite a few that were amazing and nearly as many terrible ones. So I thought it might be helpful to compile a master list of my favorite products that are available on Amazon, in case anyone wants to go on a quarantine shopping spree! 😉
While I’m working towards ditching the plastic bottles, I’m not completely there yet. I’ve included my favorite zero waste products below, but decided to also share a few clean products that I really loved despite the packaging, or that I just haven’t found good plastic-free alternatives for yet. Feel free to recommend any others you’ve tried in the comments below!
