My Journey to a Plastic Free Life started a couple of years ago when I started making changes to my lifestyle with the aim of cutting down my plastic consumption and the number of unnecessary products I send to landfill.
To rid my life of plastic, I started by focusing with one room at a time and have now replaced the products I use with plastic free alternatives which are cruelty free, natural and amazing quality.
Stress is responsible for all sorts of mental and physical problems and the skin is no exception – it reacts to stress. There are many skin conditions caused by stress and anxiety (like rosacea) and stress can even make existing conditions such as psoriasis and eczema worse. UpCircle have given us some incredible tips for managing stress and your skin.
Did you know around more than half of our recycling gets shipped abroad to be recycling. This is contributing to the growing problem of illegal dumping or burning of recycling. Here are my tips on how to recycle and other ways to reduce your waste and live more sustainably.
Ditching disposable razors and swapping it for a plastic free safety razor was one of the best things I've done on my sustainable journey. Here are my top tips on how to use a safety razor.
I just wanted to share how happy and pleased I am with my order. Every part of the packaging will be reused by me as well, thank you for making sure it is all recycled! The handwritten note was a lovely touch, and I really appreciated receiving that too.

I absolutely love The Plastic Free Life. I have made so many swaps to sustainable and Ethical products and i have really loved doing it. Lucy is always so helpful in answering my questions and it feels good to support a small business who are passionate about making a difference.

This leaves yours hair feeling really conditioned. It doesn’t leave any residue which you can sometimes find with a shampoo bar. Lasts a while too! Love this product
Lucie reviewing the 2in1 shampoo bar
I’m so pleased with this bottle! I’ve been looking for a new one for a while (since my other much more expensive glass one started to leak!) and this one ticks all the boxes! It’s really well made, it’s lightweight and the rubber sleeve protects it from any damage! It looks great too!
Natalie reviewing the Neon Kactus Water Bottle
I am so glad I came across these products, I love the fact they are completely plastic free and plant based. I have saved some plastic bottles going in the bin by reusing them with this cleaner. It smells lovely :)
Anne reviewing the Ocean Saver Drop
I had been thinking about switching to a natural deodorant for ages but kept thinking they wouldn’t be as affective as the bigger brands. I finally took the plunge and I am so happy I did. I wear this all day and even when I’m working out and it is really great. It smells wonderful and really does the job. Glad I’ve managed to find another great plastic free swap!
Jasmine reviewing the Kutis Natural Deoderant
This is the most relaxing candle, really calming yet uplifting smell but not too overpowering. My now all time fave candle.
Ash reviewing the Run With Wolves Candle
This cream has worked wonders on my skin, its so moisturising and you only need the smallest amount so this tub will last months. The smell is incredible and its so light on your skin. My skin is so soft since using this product.
