Tru Earth Eco-Strips

Tru Earth Laundry Detergent 

ru Earth Laundry Detergent Eco-Strips give you a mess-free, plastic-free way to enjoy fresh, clean laundry.

Conventional laundry detergents often contain iffy ingredients like artificial dyes or phosphates. These may irritate sensitive skin and can even harm aquatic environments. And if you’ve ever lugged a heavy jug or box home, you’ve experienced how fillers make them bulky and heavy. Not only is this inconvenient, but it also adds to harmful landfill waste.

Eco-Strips are designed differently. They’re created with only safe, effective ingredients that are gentle on your skin and the planet. Each eco-friendly laundry strip weighs just 3g — yet packs the same cleaning power as 40g of premium laundry detergent. The special formula fights grime, dirt, and odors. Plus it lifts stains and brightens clothing naturally. And since each strip is pre-measured, you can say goodbye to drips and spills in the laundry room.  Great for college students! No lugging heavy jugs of plastic around the dorms!

Lochtree Leaf Shave refillable razors

With The Leaf Razor, you can have both. The Leaf Razor is a fresh, sustainable take on the modern razor. It’s made from durable metal, not flimsy plastic. And unlike most safety razors, it has a built-in pivoting head. So it glides and hugs your skin to give you a smooth, comfortable shave. Simply load up to three blades to control how closely you shave, and the weight of the razor does the rest of the work.

The Leaf’s unique blade design helps eliminate razor burn, ingrown hairs, and irritation. So it’s perfect for use on sensitive areas. And when your blades are dull, you can save and recycle them. That way you don’t have to send anything to the landfill — or worry about buying new razors at the store. The Leaf Razor gives you all the convenience of your favorite razor without any of the waste.
