5 ecological products to adopt for your home

Ecological products are becoming more and more important in homes. As the concept of zero waste gains momentum, many people are now becoming more conscious of their actions. Consequently, the demand for ecological products , in various stores in Quebec, is increasing.

It’s a fact that small actions can make big changes. Therefore, purchasing an eco-friendly product is a simple way to start contributing to the environment. So, if you want to join the group, this article lists some Quebec ecological products for your home.

What are ecological products?

Eco-friendly products are those that are good for the environment. These products are manufactured without the use of artificial interventions, respecting the cycles of nature and society. They contribute to the recovery of genetic heritage, the management of biodiversity and the return to local markets.

Eco-friendly products for your home

We all know that environmental pollution is a constant threat. However, one way to reduce this problem is to take ecological responsibility, whether through small or large actions.

Fortunately, at Zarits Verte Planète , we are a boutique selling Quebec products that join the zero waste contribution. Here are our recommendations for eco-friendly products for your home:

1- Reusable makeup remover pads

It's normal that after a long day at work, people who wear makeup want to give their face a break. And the product responsible for this main function is the makeup remover pad or towel.

Unfortunately, while single-use makeup remover wipes are very popular, their environmental impact leaves a lot to be desired. Each makeup remover pad is typically made from plastic, a product that takes hundreds of years to decompose.

As if that wasn't enough, Mintel points out that 93% of blockages in the pipes that lead to the ocean are caused by facial towels. This means that when used, they not only affect the passage of water but also harm marine life.

Therefore, a cost-effective eco-friendly product is to use Reusable Makeup Remover Pads . When you decide to use a towel, you can wash it and reuse it the next day, without having to throw them away or waste them. Additionally, since they are made from organic materials, they do not affect our skin and are a better option for your beauty routine.

2- Bamboo toothbrush

Dental cleaning is an important part of our daily hygiene routine. However, did you know that approximately 1 billion toothbrushes are thrown away every year in the United States alone? What about it? It turns out that all popular toothbrushes are made of plastic.

But plastic is just one of many problems it poses to the environment, as bristles made from nylon contribute to air pollution. With all this in mind, we don't mean that you should avoid brushing your teeth, on the contrary, there are some very cute biodegradable toothbrushes that you can use.

At Zarits Verte Planète, you can opt for our bamboo toothbrush , which will help you reduce plastic and atmospheric pollution on our planet. It is made of bamboo, a product intended to decompose in 6 months. One of our ecological, cruelty-free and vegan products .

3- Natural mosquito repellent creams

Whether we are at home or out for a walk, mosquitoes are always present and it is very annoying. For years, due to this problem, mosquito repellent products have been developed as a solution for people.

Although they give positive results, their environmental toxicity is serious. Many of its components often represent a potential danger to human health. Whether used on a larger or smaller scale, mosquito repellents are not the best alternative.

However, our eco store presents ANTI-MOSQUITO Whipped Butter . An ideal cream to apply to your body that will keep all mosquitoes away while hydrating your skin. With this, you will no longer have to use harmful pollutants in the air or spray toxins into your environment that affect your health.

4- Ecological products: Natural shampoos

Shampoos are one of the most essential products for our hair. This is why most people try to get a shampoo that is beneficial for their scalp. But, unfortunately, most ingredients are created in a laboratory.

Therefore, even if we read the ingredients of a shampoo, we will not understand more than 50% of them, let alone the environmental impact, which means they are even less reliable.

One way to counter this problem is to use natural shampoos, such as the Solid Shampoo with Shikakai, Avocado and Ylang Ylang . An ecological product recommended for colored and dry hair. You get many benefits like eliminating dandruff, stimulating hair growth and restoring shine. Additionally, unlike conventional shampoos, this one does not come in plastic packaging and is 100% natural.

5- Ecological vegetable bags

Is there anything more important than taking care of our vegetables at home? Quite ! Use the right ecological products for storage. It is very common to see households using plastic bags or bins to store and preserve fresh vegetables.

However, if you want to reduce your ecological footprint, it is best to replace them with cotton vegetable bags . Not only are they reusable, but they also keep vegetables fresh. Additionally, they are designed to withstand weight and continuous washing.
