TAKE A WASH ON THE WILD SIDE
Brits are great at recycling in the kitchen, but when it comes to personal care products our recycling habits end up down the toilet! We asked our swim testers to swap their bathroom and sanitary products for eco-friendly alternatives for a month 86-1
Our swimmers tested Lather Box shampoo & conditioner, body wash and shaving bars. “Moving from liquid shampoo and conditioners to an all-natural solid bar definitely involves a short adjustment period,” says Lather Box’s Rebecca Burgess. “Oil production levels need to return to normal as liquid shampoos tend to strip hair of its natural oil.”
