I LOVE the fact that your skincare isn’t minimalistic. Not everyone can have the perfect luminous clear skin using jojoba and tea tree oil. 🤷🏼♀️
you should totally do a “plant tour” of your house! I’d love to see all the plants you have I think it would be a really cool video
Sarah she has an old one and I’m pretty sure she mentioned that she was gonna make an updated one since she recently moved.
@@angelicalogin7116 Oh okay cool I look forward to seeing it in that case
hey, that would be really neat!
I wish somebody would make bamboo brush heads for electric toothbrushes.
Maybe check out livecoco I spotted that they had brush heads for oral b toothbrushes? Don't know anything about the brand or the materials it's made from because I haven't looked yet myself but hopefully they would be good.
I’ve seen them in Holland and barrat
I don't think they should be a thing...bamboo is still wood and electric toothbrush heads need a strong material and metal bits inside for them to work and not break easily
They would be a nightmare to compost
I think it would defeat the purpose- your still using tons of batteries though?
Girl, I’ve looked everywhere and I can’t find ANY available to me. I’m currently using just a regular bamboo toothbrush but I honestly really miss my electric toothbrush...
I LOVE seeing young people so enthusiastic about going zero waste!!
In relation to shower curtains - my grandma uses lace as her shower curtain. It's light and dries quickly, but stops the water going everywhere. She's been using it for like 40 years so obviously works ok 🤷🏼♀️
That sounds so beautiful.
Legend 🙌
Cool. I never thought of this!
You can wash shower curtains. I have 3 and I re wash them all the time
Sunscreen is the only thing i dont compromise packaging-wise. Im glad you aren't either.
Yeah I'm a fair skinned Irish woman. I go through sunscreen by the bucket load, and I will only buy factor 50. I have a toddler too, so she has it on all the time too.
I'm not going to buy from an etsy seller. I want something that's been tested.
you could totally use the pretty toilet paper packaging for wrapping gifts or even etsy/Depop items! would be so cute for a handmade jewellery shop!!
She showed us that in one of her christmas videos last year!
That would be awesome to see your Grandmas face when you give her a Bday gift with who gives a crap wrapping 🥳
daisygirl111975 my grandma would laugh her ass off! Some grandmas are just that cool 😎
Bold of you to assume the plants aren't what I came here for. 🤣🌿
Came for the plants
I came for the plants too
Had to pause just to say that I'm so so SO happy and appreciative that you talk about things other people skip over because of embarrassment (like TP and even the brief mention of adult toys!)
I went to a local “zero waste” store the other day and was blown away by the amount of stuff made in China with their brand sticker on it. As someone who actually researched these products, I knew not to buy most of their items. Wish I could tell others not to buy from there too.
If you ever make your way to Boston, there's an amazing low-waste store that purposefully sources from local owners and owners from disadvantaged communities (women, people of color). Some of the lowest guilt shopping I get to do.
Edit: duh, it's called Cleenland, in Cambridge, right close to the Central Square T stop.
Bridgejonesrox What’s the name of the shop?
Bridgejonesrox that sounds amazing! I’m from NY so not too far from me
#3:20 is the 'who gives a crap' tp bleached, and if so, responsibly? ♥
Lol, what you call 'snake skin plant', in the UK, it is hugely known as 'mother-in law's tongue'!! 😁 😁 😁
The “adult toys” 😂😂😂
Boho Bella and next to the plunger 😂
Aww she is Gay
r they plastic free doe? thats the real question
Call for zero waste adult toys!
@FearlessAstridHofferson I was just joking, I know that's a whole other world of complication, I can probably only think of like medical grade silicone? Like what diva cups are made of... but either way yeah I know I was just messin
ir made me uncomfortable
You just made me realize I'm running DANGEROUSLY low on toilet paper....just stocked up on who gives a crap 🤗
Were you able to use her code? I want TP, and I want to support her but I can't access it :(
I live for your videos. Never stop posting. Seeing that you posted 6 hours ago at the top of my recommended was the best part of my day, its like having a best friend who can teach me about zero waste, I love your positivity and energy and I hope that I can be like you when I become a grown woman.
This video is so high-quality! The lighting, the camera angles the editing, wow!! I can always count on Shelbi for that good shit 💯💯💯
I love that all your videos are so honest and you really do put in the time to research. As a conservation biologist that makes me so happy that you are educating people to actually know where there items come from, not just believe a green sticker. I also laughed when you casually said yup thats where our adult toys live. Cuz people have them and I think its funny that its always a huge secret or shame unless you are in the business somehow. Again love how open you are.
i love this video! i’ve been focusing on making my bathroom more zero waste. please do a video on all of your plants and tips on keeping them alive. i love plants but ngl i’m not the best at keeping them alive and obviously you’re an amazing plant mom!! if you already have a video on this i’m sorry i just haven’t found it!!
Yess!!! I would also like a full plant mom video! 😂😍
Julia O yess!!
Shelbi I just have to say I love your content. You are my favorite UA-camr and I could binge watch your videos all day haha. I always feel so educated and optimistic after watching :)
I work at a community outreach center. During the pandemic the company “ who gives a crap” donated boxes of toilet paper for our families. As you know many people ran out of tp. At that time. We were able to provide it to many families. Prior to that, I never heard of the company but will definitely purchase from them.
You’re GLOWING 💕 Thank you so much for this video :)
You’re so gorgeous, like omg! And I love so much how you are helping the environment, you’re really an inspiration
I've been sick in bed and watching UA-cam for the past few days, and when I stumbled across your channel it became one of my favorites! I've been watching a lot of your videos as I've been recovering and I just have to say that I adore your attitude and your passion for the environment
You always have my thumbs up Shelby! ☺️ You're such an inspiration.
You have the best channel!!!! Love ALL your topics!!!! The plants are awesome!
Love how real you are. So refreshing
Thanks for sharing. So inspiring! We use cloth for toilet waste. If a clothing item is too worn to donate, or is an undergarment, I cut it up to use for cloth wipes. I hang a small bag of clean wipes on the toilet paper roll holder. Then dirty wipes go into a water proof wet bag. It zips up so no smells or leaks. Then unzip bag and dump into washer. I do feel like I should leave a disclaimer note in my bathroom for guests! Lol
Shelbi: *shows plants*
Shelbi: "But anyway, that's not what you came here for.
Me: Umm, yeah it is!! Show me your plants!!
Shelb, please do a plant tour! And also talk about cat safe plants!
I started dating a guy 2 months ago, he had no interest or knowledge in anything zero waste except that he recycled. So I sat down on the couch to watch this video today when i got the notification. He looked at me and said "I love when you watch her videos because I know it's something you're passionate about implementing in your life. You dont just talk about it, you look for new ways to eliminate waste that you maybe hadn't considered before. You really live it". And I think I need more people like that in my life. I think I'm converting him lol
This is very helpful! My shower routine is pretty waste free ( lush products without packaging, barely shave so don't waste many razors) but I'm really interested in always eliminating more waste. Thanks for the video!
I absolutely love that youth to the people face wash! Works so well and the smellll omg
Loved this updated vid shelb! Thanks for sharing. I'm curious, what do you have in your shower plants water that is making it look dark brown? Pebbles?
Also I saw someone else mentioned it but the crystal salt rock deodorant has been working pretty well for me! Still in plastic, but I have seen better alternatives in cardboard online! Keep it up girl, I still look forward to your vids every week! 🥰😋
I fully agree about the safety razor!!! I bought one a few months ago and it has already worked out cheaper than disposables, on top of the reduced waste!
I’ve also tried everything for deodorant and Native is the best one I’ve ever found 🙌🏼
Helpful video! Thanks for sharing! I find the bathroom is a place I can focus on doing better in at this time because all of my dishes, cookware, furniture, etc. are here to stay as long as it lasts! Bathroom items, like TP, toothpaste, etc. have to be replaced much more often. I will def need to check out the TP company you mentioned!
Such a well crafted video! Thanks for the tips!
Shelbi I LOVE this top! Did you show it to us in your recent sustainable haul video? I wants to see the whole thing 💖 Thank you for defining “drop-shipping”... it’s something we newbies to this movement gotta watch out for. Thank you for all of your advice and consistently educating those of us on this journey with you.
LOVE the bamboo rolls! I had to "upgrade " to satisfy my husband who was so used to such thick toilet paper. I do love it as well I admit!
I've framed a few of the wrapping paper to hang in my bathroom!:)
I told my husband yesterday that I wish you would do another bathroom essentials video! This is perfect! You always give me great ideas on how to reduce our waste that I otherwise never would have thought of 😃 Great video!
Obseeeessssssed with all the plants! I’d love to see a plant tour! 🌿🌱🌵
just used your link and discount code for the toilet paper!! SO excited to finally starting to use plastic free toilet paper! thank you!
Thank you for this video! I love your content 🥰
Hey Shelbi, just wanted to first say thank you so much for these kinds of videos.
I love how candid and open you are, and the emphasis you put on not having to do everything perfectly and it's okay to do what little you can to the best you can do it.
I do have one small question, what do you do for flossing?? This is the one dental care item that I have not been able to find a vegan and zero waste version of! All the zero waste ones are made with silk, and all the vegan ones are not biodegradable. Have you found any suitable alternative?
Omg! I’ve spent years trying different natural deodorants. NOTHING worked for me. Then out of the blue, I saw an ad for Native so I decided why not try it. It was kinda pricey, but worth every penny! It’s the only deodorant that works and doesn’t break me out. I love Native!
For TP - you could also go cloth. :) We started using cloth wipes with the kiddos when they were babies (we used cloth diapers), it made it easier to keep using them when they started learning how to use the potty. Then we just all started using them plus a bidet on one of our toilets.
Would you make a video talking about eco friendly adult toys?
The Package Free Shop sells a Gaia biodegradable mini vibrator for only $10. It's really awesome.
Maria is it a single use thing?
@@bronwynrumbel456 Definitely not, thank goodness! It uses a tripple A battery and I use rechargeable batteries. I've gone through some battery recharges but the vibrator itself still works great. It's industrially compostable, not home compostable, so normal use and cleaning won't break it down.
Yes I was just thinking of this!!
What's wrong with using what God gave you? I mean unless you are a double amputee your hand is about as zero waste and eco friendly as you can get.
Thank you for such helpful videos! I just bought one pair of period proof underwear and am looking to test out different brands so now I know where to go for my next buy. I also just ordered the toilet paper and tissues! I don't really use tissues but my partner does it was great to find something so cheap and friendly for him to use.
I have curly hair and I don’t use conditioner because it makes my hair too “greasy” looking. I like how it looks better without using conditioner.
Girl, I rarely use conditioner, too! People look at me like I’m crazy when I say that but I’ve barely been using it for maybe 3 years and my hair is NO different than the 25 years of using it. and I only get my hair cut once every 12-15 months and my hairdresser (my sister) has never said anything about my hair being in shambles so I think I’m okay 🤷♀️
I love the shower plants! ❤️🌱❤️ I need a shower plant ☺️
Thank you for putting together videos that tackle this topic.
I'm a huge fan of period knickers! They can be a challenge to clean sometimes, especially with a heavy flow day and washing in winter. I use different brands as based in the UK.
Thank you so much for the video! So many things I never thought about but this is so helpful and a great inspiration for me (as always!).
I've been wanting to switch to more sustainable toilet paper since I watched this video when it first came out, and I'm finally in a place where I can afford it, so I just ordered some using your code! Thank you so much for introducing me to Who Gives a Crap!
Brush with bamboo! I personally know the others. I used to work at a health food store where we sold their products and they’d come in often to shop. they’re great people and it’s family owned 💗
VB I’m glad to hear they’re good people. I just bought two of their toothbrushes today. 😁
7:15 "anyway that's not what you came here for" actually yes your plants are so cool and I keep going to the bio section of your videos trying to get these plants 🌿 thank you!
Love your necklace Shelbi, thanks for the video.
That native deodorant is the only one that works!! I wasted so much money on natural deodorants and native is the only one that works and it’s not wasteful like the others! So happy ❤️
You are soooo cool ♥️🤙🏻 i love your videos
Hello from Spain🇪🇸
Sand Cloud makes a great reef safe sunscreen! It's packed in a metal tin, which I find more convenient especially when traveling 😊 They also donate their proceeds to help save the fishies 🐋🐬🐟🐠🐡
I would love to know more about what to look for in greywater, biodegradable shampoos :)
Love all the swaps
I love seeing what you use!
“But anyway that’s not what you’re here for” - reference to plants, but wait I am here for that 😂 I absolutely love the shower plants! What are they?
It’s amazing how different people are. I had hair about your length up to about 2 weeks ago and I HAD to use conditioner or else it felt like a bail of hay on my head! And now that I’ve cut it I feel like I might not have to use it anymore.
I was looking for new shampoos and a razor!! Thank you!!
I love Native. I have the pumpkin spice one now! 🎃😁
Thank you so much for taking care of our planet I thank you so much their are so many people who don’t believe in this but I am glad more people are taking aware of this
Great Video! I've honestly never heard of brush with bamboo... my go-to bamboo toothbrush is by The Humble Co. I believe they are based out of Sweden and they provide toothbrushes for children in developing countries. I really hope they don't drop ship though -- I'll have to check that out.
There was one brand of bamboo toothbrush I ordered and it came wrapped in plastic packaging. Feels like it totally negates the whole point of buying a bamboo toothbrush LOL. Greenwashing runs rampant.
Love your videos I can’t seem to find anyone similar yet to your videos over here in the UK as it would be great to be able to have this much great advice about products over here.
One product I have purchased through watching your videos is the pela case and I’m so happy with it! Advantage at using your discount code too so thank you very much for that. A lot of the lifestyle comes down to the individual doing research on the best products that they can get and some is trial and error but as long as your putting your best food forward, towards that lifestyle your doing your bit for the environment. :)
I have also already purchased who gives a crap and found they are the best so far for toilet paper and have subscribed so they are delivered on a regular basis. :)
DAME, a reusable tampon applicator made of medical grade material, is a UK company. They can send you the tampons too.
Sustainably vegan is based in UK and she’s great!
New(er) subscriber here! I love this video as well as your others that I've seen so far! I use a menstrual cup with my period underwear! (And honestly it's useful to have when I work outside during the summer because they absorb sweat as well 😳). I wanted to note too that when I was looking for reusable underwear for the first time I had come across some unpleasant accusations about the CEO of Thinx. I can't remember specifically what that was now, but I did end up going with a different company. Still love the concept and any way to reduce our waste!!
Helpful video! Always looking for good recommendations on better quality items, especially since everything in the bathroom seems to have plastic. Do you have any suggestions for bed sheets?
Not going to lie that tp wrapper would be great for Zero crafting/play with kids. I love eco friendly stuff to do with my son
FYI for everyone who does use a shower liner, they make fabric ones that can be washed and reused! I believe my mom got hers from target.
Kathryn Jayne I’ve also washed plastic ones in the past. I know it’s not the same and eventually you have to throw them out but i just thought I’d mention
When I first found your channel, I really wanted to go zero waste but then I wasn't quite sure where to begin and I started buying a bunch of products that I didnt actually end up using very often. Then, I decided to go 100% vegan a couple weeks ago (I had quit milk and eggs but still ate dairy before that) and found that I had been struggling to find even vegetables zero waste which was really frustrating. We bought reusable produce bags but I still live with my family and don't necessarily buy my own food (I will start to soon, especially because my siblings aren't vegan). I would love it if anyone could share tips on how to juggle being low-waste and vegan especially as a student. I'm so glad that theres this community out here, and I love your content and the message that you put out there Shelbi.
I'm a zero waste student too! One thing I recommend is buying the produce that is in season (cheaper and more likely to be package free) and then chopping it up or cooking it and storing in the freezer.
@@mariachristina97 that's actually really smart! I'm not sure why I didn't think of freezing the produce 😂. I was a little bit confused about how I could make the produce last during the winter so thanks!
@@Maya-vu2qw You're welcome! I'm actually cooking a butternut squash to freeze today myself.
@@mariachristina97 nice! :)
i hope i can improove my routines :)
hoping to use less plastic
You can also use a smashed up overripe banana to exfoliate. I saw it on a vegnews article and it said to leave it on for 15 to 30 min but I only leave it on for 10 minutes because thats when my skin gets irritated and I know its ready to take off. I’ve tried the mad hippie one and different kinds of chemical exfoliants and they all make my skin feel the same way as the banana does, irritation is just normal with chemical exfoliants, as long as you wash it off the irritation should stop.
Just so you know , there have been multiple studies that have proved sunscreens DO NOT cause coral reef bleaching, the rise in temperatures does that. So you don't need to worry about a sunscreen being "reef safe" because that is just a marketing thing. Love your videos so much
I know this is an older video. and we use family wipes and a bidget. But I always keep toilet paper on hand between washes and guest. knowing the company I'm supporting is supporting others in a positive way is reassuring. These 48, (with your code) will come in handy and probably last 18 months to 2 years.
Hi!!! I'm new and so excited to learn!
The Goodwell.co has bamboo toothbrushes with compostable bristles (+ a really great electric toothbrush alternative and biodegradable floss picks)
just found your channel! its great! so many good product
I’m really enjoying your videos and getting great ideas for being more eco friendly. I’m curious what your solution is for water when you’re traveling. For example if the place you’re staying has nasty tasting tap water. Do you use some kind of portable filter?
I don't know if you will see this because this is an older video but I recommend Youth to the People. Their cleanser is great and stands in for a toner too, they are a low waste company. Also, I recommend Krave which is also a low waste company. The creator Liah Yoo is actively looking to lower the foot print of her company. Krave even has a recycle guide for each product. Some of her products like Great Barrier Relief even donates towards saving the coral reefs.
I noticed the same thing with my hair about conditioner. I have very straight hair that tends to get really greasy, and not using conditioner lets me have an extra day or so before I have to shower or wash my hair again. Wish I’d stopped using conditioner years earlier because for me personally it just made my hair worse
Have you ever tried “Sugaring waxing”? It’s pretty much zero waste and it last longer than saving. You basically mix sugar (vegan) and fresh lemon juice. There’s no waste and the waste created from the hair removal process can be diluted in warm water and used to water your trees or just compost it with your food scraps. Super easy and lasting results plus no harm to the earth!
Please try the Ethique shampoo and conditioner bars they are my favourite!
I have one of their lotion bars I really like
So I started using the native deodorant and I am satisfied! I trusted your review since u also live in Texas lol but yea it really does work well I cant wait for summer to test it out then
I don't use conditioner on my wavy hair. I just use jojoba oil after I shower, which I also use as a face oil.
I just met you here and I already love you!
Tank you for suggestions definitely heve better understanding.
Love this so helpful!
In the future if you do get a place where the tub in the shower is connected you can always buy a cloth shower curtain. Those actually did. I'm a pretty nice.
If you try a bidet you feel so clean specially during the time of the month and if you use toilet paper it would be just to pat dry toilet paper would last for a year or more.
Who gives a crap TP is amazing and we get the bamboo kind at my house. The wrapping for that line is black and white prints instead of the colors you have shown in the post consumer paper waste line 🙂
Hey Shelbi!
Could you do a video on recycling programs like TerraCycle?
I'm cleaning out my bathroom and I don't want to have to put my plastic containers in the landfill if I can help it, but I want to know what the best option is.
Also, TerraCycle has recycling boxes for things like markers and pencils that would be good for schools! I think I'm gonna message my school's environmental club to look into it and see if we can make it happen.
Any advice appreciated!
I only use conditioner every week or every few weeks
My eco friendly towel = same towel I have been using for 17 years. Lol
Do you have a video of “getting rid of plastic?” Also any tips on getting rid of rags that have no use anymore and ratty towels?
I donate my old towels and blankets to my local animal shelter. They ALWAYS need them. ❤
I really like u, you seem very nice, when I get my own place I’m definitely changing my life style and becoming a plastic free girl:) and making the world better:)
Your hair is life 😍😍
Their are cloth reusable shower liners, they may not be completely plastic free but it's better than those awful disposable ones that you have to change every few months. I throw mine in with my towels once in a while.
I love your videos!!!
