"The most sustainable option is the one you're going to use." I love that.
I’m so impressed that your bag isn’t filled with old receipts and tickets and fluff. :) My bag reveal would consist of me going, “What the hell is that? I thought I lost that years ago.”
I know you aren't in this situation yet, but I would be so interested to see a low waste for pregnancy/babies. I'm not pregnant and don't plan to be, but I know that there are so many people who go low waste/sustainable and then have a kid and don't know what to do.
Do what interests you, I'm just sort of curious.
Enjoyed the 4th round of this video.
There’s definitely a lot of waste in having kids if you’re not careful. Cloth diapering/cloth wipes are a big one and I think trying to find as much baby gear used as you can helps. Except car seats! Those always need to be purchased new. And target has an awesome recycling system for car seats when they are expired or your kids outgrow them.
I also buy a lot of second hand clothes or get hand me downs from friends with older kids! It does get a little harder as they get older at least for boys because they destroy their clothes! And shoes lol. I’d definitely be interested in a video about that too.
We cloth diaper and buy most clothes and a LOT of toys second hand but there's just so much waste associated with babies. It sucks.
Yes! I’m a mom of 4 and would love a baby/kid related video!
Day Owl backpacks have been the perfect everyday carry for me- I bet they would love to work with you!! Awesome video
A great way to carry utensils is to wrap them in a cloth (reusable) napkin and close it up with a rubber band.
I got my reusable utensil set for free from a sustainability club when I was in college. It also came with a straw and a brush!
nice! mine was free from college too. it didn't have a straw or brush, but included chopsticks. i got a free metal straw from somewhere else
I'm the opposite with lotion lol. I hate the feeling of lotion on my hands so my hands are chronically dry 😅
I love watching these videos. They always give me good ideas. But I want to warn you Shelbi about that charging cord from A Good Company. I've had 2 and they both started malfunctioning on me relatively quickly. Which was so frustrating. I have a charging cord from Nimble (it came with my Nimble charging block) and it's still working fine months later, unlike the one from A Good Company. So even though the Nimble one isn't 3 pronged, it'll hold up much better.
I have the same dry hand thing some stuff becomes entirely untouchable when dry! Looking at you microfiber cloths.
It’s weirdly comforting to find someone with similar texture issues to mine! I feel like you hear about people struggling with slimy textures but for me it’s all about dry/rough textures! Dry skin, dry cardboard, sometimes even velvet are just…eugh.
Another amazing type of sunglasses: Oakleys has a women's line that DOESNT get stuck in your hair!! Called the Caveat or Feedback sunglasses (and they have polarized lenses for fishing, hiking, driving, or other color-corrective sports) and last YEARS
Happy Plastic Free July! Ha! Was at Target and someone asked about my Chico bags.. so happy to tell her. Day Owl is where I got my backpack and it has a compartment for water bottles.. or wine. 😉 They also have a seconds area on their site… less expensive and really I couldn’t see what was wrong even though they pointed it out. 🤞🏻🤞🏻 They are what they say! But I do love it.
I love your videos. They are so well edited and put together. Great job.
4:18 THANK YOU! IT'S NOT JUST ME!!!!!!!!!!!
I’ve always wanted to carry around a backpack… don’t people look at you like you’re stealing if you wear a bag? That’s why I won’t wear one to stores and stuff 😅
Can you make a list of brands that you use
When I need to get a new wallet I will try and remember that company my wallet is like over a decade old now and it’s falling apart kind of at the edges, but I’m planning to hang onto it until it’s not useable but good to keep in mind for later.
I love your ideas. Thank you so much.
This Charlie Fiest backpack isn't very good imo, I've had it for just a few months and the zipper just wasnt sturdy enough. you're better off getting a good second hand bag instead
My thoughts as well... A few years doesn't sound very good for an everyday casual bag. I had to get a speedo backpack 10 years ago when I was on a swimming team and it's still holding strong despite me carrying litteral ankle weights, dumbbells and heavy textbooks inside. I filled it to the brim constantly, got it wet many times, took the plane and lugged it around everywhere. The blue fabric isn't as vibrant as before and the pleather coating on the bottom started peeling off but none of the zippers or seams show damage or hints of coming apart anytime soon.
I remembered the name of the lotion wrong and thought it was la prairie and I couldn’t begin to understand why you were using $300…and now I’m back….and was clearly wrong 🤣🤣
Oval Charger is USB Type C :)
That cord is called usb-c!
the new cable jack is usb c!
The oval thing is usb C
How can I be a subscriber that becomes your friend? so jellyyyy
🍀🍀
Is this your purse?
What happened to the video that was upcoming and then disappeared?
I’m not sure what you mean..?
@@Shelbizleee a few days ago it said upcoming video from you with the option to set a reminder. Then later when I went back to watch it, it was gone.
Oh that was just a live stream.
Just a note from someone with extremely sensitive skin: unscented is not the same as fragrance free. Unscented means they use masking fragrance to cover up the smell of the ingredients, so it has a neutral smell. Fragrance free means there's no fragrance ingredients at all.
I want to second this. Check the labels! For example, head and shoulders “unscented” shampoos have synthetic fragrance in them.
Seconded from another person with very sensitive skin!
Wow I didn’t know that!
Unfortunately Fragrance-free doesn’t always MEAN it’s fragrance-free. If a company is willing to list all the individual components of their fragrance formula on the label they can claim it is fragrance-free. It’s like claiming a burger is “special sauce-free” because they were willing to disclose the individual ingredients in the sauce along with the list of ingredients in the burger on the menu. “Fragrance” just means “we don’t want to disclose our secret recipe.”
Also, if they’re using a fragrant ingredient for a purpose other than for the scent- like lavender or peppermint oils which can be used for “medicinal” things- they can claim it is fragrance-free. I recently bought a lotion that has cedrol in it, which according to pubchem is just fragrance. But companies can use it for other reasons (that I can’t remember) so, bc they’re probably using it for a reason other than scent and bc they disclosed on the label what the scented ingredient was, they were able to sell the item w a “Fragrance-Free” claim on the front of the bottle. Even though the smell is quite potent.
You REALLY have to be careful and REALLY know your shit when you have a fragrance allergy. It sucks. I had so many unnecessary break outs and rashes my entire life until I finally learned all of that.
Thank you so much for explaining this. So few know this!
I just recently discovered this channel and wanted to say thank you! Thank you for renewing my sense of responsibility and interest in sustainability. I started to feel so defeated years ago seeing the big name zero waste influencers showing off their mason jars full of 5 years worth of trash or whatever. You make everything seem so attainable and realistic. We need so much more of you!
I have a little cotton pouch in my bag where I keep two spoons and two forks and two straws in case I’m with someone and they can use my reusables while we’re out eating 😁
Aww, that’s so thoughtful, such a nice idea! I ought to do the same.
I always have extra on hand for my husband and little one :)
I was waiting for the annual July what’s in my bag video
Same! Must be plastic-free July :D
You have inspired me to become more eco friendly and vegetarian. Baby steps
Taking baby steps is so important! Burning out from going to quickly and giving up is definitely not good for the environment so I'm also being forgiving with myself and taking baby steps too 😄
So fun to see an old school 'what's in my bag' video again!! 😁 I'm all here for the eco version 🌿👌
Hi Shelbi! Love the video, I agree with you that it is so fun to see how it's evolved over the years.
BTW, the third charging end is called a USB-C. It's the main charger that newer Android phones use, as well as many other electronics (e.g. the switch)
My backpack has two slots that are intended for pens, but my utensils fit perfectly in there!
That's such a great idea! I never thought about that!
My “zero waste” back pack is almost complete! And I believe everything inside is so important to keep on me.
A lot of people I know think it’s weird that I carry around so much all the time, but also those people ask me to borrow stuff all the time sooo 🤷🏼♀️.
I love this! I’ve been starting to switch to sustainable options and this will be perfect for me to look into as im traveling to portland, oregon for a few days
When you said Chase, I got mad at myself haha. I started banking with Chase a little while before I started to live a more sustainable/low-waste life and never thought to look at it's impact on the Earth. Will definitely switch to Aspiration soon. Thank you for that info!
If it weren’t for you Shelbi I wouldn’t have thought about banking! Since your banking video a while back I have switched to aspiration too. Thank you for what you do and as always this video was amazing!
Pela cases are the best ❤️❤️ I always buy them second hand on DEPOP and Mercari.
I wish pela would make cases for other brands of phones.
They do some for Android I believe
On their site I signed up to be notified when they finally made a case for my type of phone, it's unfortunate they don't have yours yet but they're working on it. (Android btw)
I also wish they collaborated with Fitbit! Love my Pela phone case (for my Google Pixel)
We need a bank like that in Canada.
Check out Levi hildebrands patest vid
There are some amazing people doing visible mending, quite a few of whom are posting content on youtube and instagram. Maybe they can give you inspiration or you can find a clever mender who might help you salvage your beloved bag?
I switched from Barclays bank after watching your video about large banks funding fossil fuels. Thank you so much for making me aware!
Can you please make a video about Aspiration / eco banking? I want to switch but I'm afraid of scam banks!!! Aspiration is the one I've been thinking about but I don't know anyone personally who banks with them.
Speaking of water bottles. It may not be made in the most environmentally friendly way(idk), but I got one from a company called Orca. I drink a LOT of tea in a day and the one I got is 66oz, so I rarely if ever have to refill it in a day.
Shelbi: *shows us her cute Pela sunnies*
Me: omg those are perfect! I don’t remember seeing those on Pela’s site.
Shelbi: they don’t make this style anymore.
Me: NoOoOo!!!!😭
I don’t know if you already made a video about this, but I’m curious what your cat eat. Do you buy their food in bulk or do you give them some alternative
Watching from Austria🤗 Love your content💜
LOVE Aspiration! Worth switching banks for.
My hack for caring reusable straws is a travel toothbrush holder. While it is plastic it is sturdy and easily washable
Hey Shelbi, would you consider doing more a consumer review type of video over Aspiration? I really like their mission, but am hesitate from switching from a bank I can go to a branch for (I bank at a local Missouri bank). Do you bank at any others banks besides aspiration? Thoughts on their user interface on their website? Thank you for all that you do!
What’s in the bag yay 😁
Great thing about using bamboo utensils for travel is that you don’t upset the TSA when you go through airport security. :)
That weird oval charger is called “type C” by the way
I know exactly what you are talking about with dry hands and textures, the feeling of fabrics actually catching on my dry skin drives me nuts
question - is that utensil kit from earthhero easy to clean? i've been looking for one that won't get icky after i put things back after i use them. if not, do you just wrap them in napkins before you go home or?
I've never tried to wash the little pouch I have but I usually have a cloth napkin in my bag so I just wrap them in that. Good question though!
@@Shanoninoni8 okay, that makes sense. thank you!
I recently saw that Neutrogena has started selling moisturizing bars for hand moisturizer. Haven't used it yet though so I don't know if it's good, but I like it when popular mainstream brands get into low-waste, plastic-free products.
I haven’t seen that one but I’ll surely check it out. I try to get local brands of zero waste toiletries, if possible bought in person. But sometimes I need something for my day to day life or for my family members and it’s good to have some options in the grocery store!
Since finding this channel, and doing a lot of my own research, trial and error, I’ve really started going on my own low-waste journey. Sometimes my husband rolls his eyes at some of the things I’m excited about, but I’m so proud of myself. I haven’t bought laundry detergent in a bottle for over a year, I have been using shampoo bars for at least 5 years (although I’ve yet to find the perfect match for me), and I’ve started using Blueland cleaning products and hand soap. I’ve even managed to find a company that makes scrubs with recycled plastic bottles, since I really needed more uniforms and scrubs are hard to find more eco friendly versions of.
Wait ... what's the pokeball for?
I also want to know haha
I've found quite a nice use for "single use" plastic- namely bottles. I repurpose them as sharps/biohazard containers as I'm an insulin dependent diabetic and must test my blood sugar quite often as well as needing to inject insulin. Although as for the Arizona tea bottles and the Motts apple juice bottles (both gallon sized) I reuse them for water that I get at a water dispenser near me as my house tap water tastes horrible (that's life with well water....). And then the 20oz Gatorade bottles get reused for Gatorade powder that gets mixed with water (I have dysautonomia and rely on Gatorade to help get my electrolytes needed to help with the dysautonomia symptoms).
Could you make a video discussing Hyram's new skincare line?
I’m planning on it, yes!
I bought that to go canister and i hate it. I could just bring Tupperware. BUT! It looks weird and when I bring it out at restaurants, please look and ask questions. So its great for starting a discussion
Omg this reminds me of how long ive been watching youuu. Keep slaying queen!
bump
I want a pela case SO bad!!! They don't make cases for my OnePlus phone and I want to cry about it all the time.
try to sew a poket at a side to put a water bottle :D
She actually tried that. She talked about it in a older video.
Omg I have the same sensitivity to dry hands!! I always need lotion on hand too. Can’t stand the weird texture of stuff!
thanks for this! im here because of the recommendation of simple environmentalist
if i understand your description, i think you are talking about a USB c
I have never thought of carrying a use-all bag like that. It's one of the reasons I often find myself using unnecessary plastic
Is the Aspiration card available in Canada??
I feel the same about dry hands! I know what you mean, weird and I don’t like it
What is the website you use to buy your electronics second hand? I remembered you saying about it in a video but I couldnt find it linked in my quick searches I did.
Also I'm so glad I'm not the only person who has the weird dry hand texture thing. There are certain clothes I can't stand to touch unless my hands are absolutely hydrated
I have a guide here! www.shelbizleee.com/post/where-to-purchase-second-hand-electronics
Also happy to hear I'm not alone in the texture thing!
I think she recommended black market. That’s where I got my phone from, and I’m really happy with it! Like new condition and so much cheaper.
the oval shape is a usb-c charger :) most common with android devices which is probs why it's less familiar for you!
I feel you so hard on the dry hands, it makes me want to 🤮 when I have to touch anything with dry skin
FUCK I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU TOO UPLOAD T_T :DDDD
Why do you send a tiny bottle through the mail for a refill instead of just having a large amount in storage and refilling from there?
Okay but…. What is the pokeball for?? Lol
Nimble doesn’t ship to Canada I’m so bummed :(
So for your water bottle, something I just recently saw a friend do was use a big carabiner and hook the water bottle to a strap and then it hangs/ sits next to your bag.i had never thought of this before but I thought it was smart!
My water bottle has a carabiner clip as part of the lid and I love it so much!
Talk to me about lip balm. What’s you’re go to for that?
I have been watching all your videos about sustainable life style. I love all your passion to change the world thank you Shelbizleee
Maybe look into the GFC backpack? I really like mine but wish it had more pockets
I can't wait to see your 2022 video for this 🥰
I love Klean Kanteen. I have a bottle, didn't like the lid, so replaced it. I also have a travel cup for hot things and can use the lid from that on the bottle as well (like if I drop the one for the bottle and need to wash it, lol).
Funny! If I put hand lotion on I get the heebies and want to wash it off
those little things!!! that get caught in your hair. I hate them too!
Kristen Bell has also said that she has a problem with tactile feedback on her fingertips. I don't know if there is a name for it.
The oval is USB-C.
I just got a new backpack from dayowl! I love it so much and they have a send back and repair program. I also was able to get a factory misfit for a discount but they also have a second hand section as well. Plus the water bottle holder is geniusl!
How "bad" are the misfit bags? Is it pretty minor flaws or super noticeable? Issues that effect function? (E.g. zippers) I was just looking at their website.
@@BouncyBrown everything hardware wise is functional 100%. The only thing wrong is a tiny spot of glue on the very bottom and 2 spots of discoloration on the top but nothing that you can actually see unless you’re really looking for it.
I use Raw Elements Baby sunscreen for my little one! We love it! I use it on myself as well!
What is your dress? I love it!
The pokeball, talk about the pokeball!
I've been using an insulated Klean Kanteen for years and I love it so much! I think it works better for keeping your drink hot or cool than other brands too!
I'm later on in the video, and I play Pokemon GO too! Go Fest is on my Bday! New plug is called USB C :)
Yes I hate dry hands Texture!!. It's basically all the rough edges of your skin clinging to the fibers of things and them pulling on you, if that makes sense. My least favorite is the faux Sherpa polyester on like coats and stuff + dry hands. It feels like sticking your hand into a densely packed corner of cobwebs. 😱
The 'new shape' is a C cable! The USB to C cable is the most common, but there are a few C to C cables for lightning charging of a few types of phones. Great vid!
I can't remember If I have told you this before but I have that "texture" thing too! It's some sensory thing that I've never been able to figure out exactly what it is. I don't put lotion on but I always have to wash my hands when I get that sensation. Does it also sometimes give you chills up your spine like nails on a chalkboard? I also like hardly slept as a baby and cried A lot and I think the two things are connected. Were you like that? I don't think I know anyone else who has this.
Hey :) feeling weird asking this under a sustainable video, sorry 🙈 but Ive been looking for a dress like that one you're wearing. What brand is that? Greeting from Germany:)
