No More Plastic Bottles In The Shower For Me.

burts.jpg

As of this past weekend, everything I use in the shower is officially petroleum based plastic bottle free…My soap right now is a bar of Method Bloq Soap and my shampoo is a shampoo bar from Burt’s Bees. Both are natural soaps that are biodegradable and contain no harmful chemicals, and they both do a wonderful job of making me less stinky.

Only have to find a good bar of shaving soap…any ideas? That and convince the wife to give up the plastic bottles of shampoo and conditioner and we are both entirely plastic-free!

    Hi. Have you also tried Lush cosmetics? They make shampoo bars, deodorant bars, lotion, and soap bars that are all plastic-free. They have stores in most major cities in the world and you can also order via their web site. I have a review of this company on my web site: http://www.fakeplasticfish.com.

    This past weekend, I saw a brand of shaving soap called Simmons. Their web site is

    I haven’t tried it yet, but I’m going to get some and experiment.

    I can’t wait to try the Burt’s Bees shampoo. It smells great. I haven’t bought it yet because I’m waiting to use up my Lush shampoo bar.

    We did try Lush, but found that most of their products still contain chemicals so we decided not to buy from them. Do you know of any natural stuff that they sell without parabens and sulfates in them?

    Simmons…I think I have heard of that before. I will go check them out now, thanks!

    I found a shop on Etsy with some shaving bars – you might find others on Etsy as well, if you use the search function.
