Plastic cotton swabs.
It’s not uncommon for many people to flush their cotton swabs down the toilet when they’re finished with them. Unfortunately, this fast tracks these plastic bad boys right into our environment because they are small and often escape waste management systems.
Plastic cotton swabs may weather, but because they are made of plastic, they won’t break down fully. Their small, slim shape makes them easily indigestible by marine animals, which can cause injury or death.
- Grab the cotton swab with two fingers at one end of the swab.
- Insert the cotton swab into your ear. *Be careful not to push in too far or make any sudden movements.
- Gently wipe inside your ear.
- Discard cotton swab in your green waste bin.
*Using cotton swabs should never hurt, if you feel pain stop immediately.
Typical Life Span: 3 months (per box of 100)*
After using your bamboo cotton swabs, simply toss them into your compost bin.
*Life span will vary based on frequency of use, storage conditions, etc.

I've been wanting to buy this product for a while, it's my first safety razor. I'm still getting used to it, it's a bit different from the disposable ones, but I'm really glad I got this zero waste replacement.
Yes it can take some time to adjust but it's totally worth it for the planet!! >3
I'm so glad I finally made the switch to a reusable razor. I'm sad it took me so long. This razor has a great feel, nice weight and nice look. Look out family, you're all getting one for Christmas!
Hi Blaine! It's never too late and we're so happy you took a chance with one of our razors. Welcome to the Green Groomer family, we'll be ready at Christmas time :)
This safety razor is one of the better ones I have used in my lifetime. I have gone through a few (mainly because they have been lost) and this one has been one of my favorites. Main thing is it is well balanced and can go anywhere with me!
That's the goal, Brad, to have one Razor for life - barring you don't lose them ;) We are grateful you are enjoying the product we have and hopefully this one stays with you for quite some time!
I love that there is no more throwing out my plastic razor every time I need a new one. This is great! Just recycle the razors in to the sharps and away you go. Soooo easy to use and add to the razor head. I bought the bamboo razor handle, but I may give that to my husband so that I can get the new metal one! :)
That is great to hear Sarah! Keep up the awesome work, and if you would like to get a metal razor send us an email at info@lifeunpacked. We would love to add in an extra 'Thank You' for sharing the mission.
When I first opened the Bamboo Razor, I was extremely intimidated, it definitely wasn’t your regular razor. I was quite worried that I would cut myself with it, so I put off using it for a bit. I looked up how to attach the blade on their website. I was so pleasantly surprised at how easy it is to shave with! I have super sensitive skin and get cuts very easily. You barely need any pressure, and it gives you such a close clean shave! I have very dark hair, and usually still can see black spots after shaving, and I did not have that issue using this razor! The razor handle is made of bamboo, with stainless steel. Absolutely recommend this razor as an alternative to the mainstream plastic razors!
We are thrilled that you love the bamboo razor. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings about it from start to finish! :)

When I first ordered 2 corn floss, the first spool took a while to work around, as it would often break apart while trying to use, if I tried to use one section of the floss enough times. I nearly gave up on use, but later discovered that the first spool was defected. The 2nd spool with my order held up really well, only broke maybe once or twice). Sure, the disclaimer in product description advised that it should be reserved for those who have wider teeth ( I have narrower teeth), but decided to give this one a go, since at the time I ordered, the corn floss was the only compostable floss option I had at the time. Looking forward trying out the new bamboo charcoal, now that there is a compostable floss option for narrower teeth. Overall, pretty satisfied with the integrity of the floss I have ordered with LifeUnpacked :)
Thank you so much Patti for the feedback! We're glad you're enjoying our corn floss. And yes, all our floss are now compostable and biodegradable! Thanks for your support!

After about 6 months of using these brushes, which have bristles of the exact perfect softness and durability, I went for a dental check up. For the first time ever, my gums were in great shape and I didn't have a single cavity. I am totally sold on this brush and am passing them out to family and friends. And, best of all, no plastic in the ocean!!
Wow that's amazing Beth, we're so happy that our bamboo toothbrush is making your trip to the dentist smoother :) Thanks for the review and for spreading the message to everyone!!

The brush is just the right softness to gently brush gums. Toothbrush is lightweight. Love it! The best part, is that every time I use the brush, I think of how I am taking care of the earth. It's my take care of the earth moment. Reminds me we are visitors for a moment in time; and we need to leave this place better for others after us to enjoy.
Hello Rhonda- thank you so much for the review and for helping the planet! We couldn't be more grateful!!

So nice to have a sustainable tooth brush to keep my teeth and planet nice and clean!

So much nicer than plastic bristles and works And happy to be helping the planet

These bamboo toothbrushes are great! Saves so much waste in my household. We bought 12 of these for a years supply. Just imagine if millions of people did this simple switch!
Thanks for making the switch Tom! :) Keep sharing and eventually millions of people will make the switch.
This Bamboo Toothbrush is one of my favourites. I have been using it for a bit now as I received one at The Vancouver Christmas Market. The bristles are so soft and clean much better than a regular toothbrush. You don’t need to brush as hard to receive the same level of clean. Once you’re finished, pull out the bristles and throw your handle right in your compost bin. These brushes are available for both adults and children.
Thank you so much for taking the time to review our products, Kimberley! It means a ton to us for you to share your opinion with others who are interested in the same items.
I set out wanting a product(s) that were plastic free. I wasn't sure what to expect. After using them for a couple of months I absolutely love the products. The shampoo bar is amazing, and the toothbrush and paste were my biggest surprise, they're brilliant. I highly recommend their products.
Jay - We are glad that our items were a surprise for you in a positive way! We aim to make sure that the eco-friendly products we provide are the same, if not better than their comparable plastic products options! :)
I was gifted an UNpacked toothbrush - it was SO good. I never thought I would be raving about a toothbrush of all things! I’m definitely a fan! Good quality and good for the earth - a total win win!
We are so happy you were gifted a bamboo toothbrush to try! Please make sure to dispose of it properly, with the bamboo going in the compost and the bristles in to the recycling!
It used to be so difficult to get my kids to brush their teeth, now they actually enjoy it. Such a wonderful, unexpected change to the past where I would have to chase them around the house. Not only is it easy to get them to brush their teeth right after meal time, they brush for longer each time. These smaller toothbrushes are great!
Hey Barb - That is great to hear your kids love their new toothbrushes! We have heard this before from parents. We are very happy that these bamboo toothbrushes can help you in the way they do.

Hi Bria, we love bamboo products too! We're glad you enjoy taking the Bamboo Toothbrush Holder with you on your trips. Thanks for trusting us!
I used to have a plastic toothbrush case for when I was on the road, and it would constantly break (mainly from just not being careful, but also just life). I'd feel bad everytime I threw it away... But now with this one, it doesn't matter if anything happens to it because I know I can compost it! I mentally feel better just knowing that. Will update with other feedback after I have used it for a bit.
That's great to hear Barrie - we wish you all the best!

Hi Ann! Thanks for suggestion, we'll look into it :) So glad you're enjoying the replaceable head on this bamboo toothbrush; you're creating half the waste now!! Thanks for your support!
This toothbrush is so easy to use and hold. It fits perfectly in my hand and does a great cleaning job on my teeth. Thank you for bringing this option in to my life and for my kids as well.

Hi Tom, It sounds like you have quite the handful being a single father of 3. We are glad that we could contribute even a little bit to help to make your life that much easier! :) All the best and wish you and your family of 4 safety through these trying times.
These are a neat idea that works pretty well. I haven’t switched the heads yet, but the brush itself works really well and with soft bristles. I’ll report back after a few more months to give an update on changing the heads. Having this type and the other one make it easy for my boyfriend and I to separate our brushes.
Glad you like the idea of this option, Kyla! We just recently added it to our website. The replaceable heads will be up in the next while (once we receive them from our supplier)!

Aerosol dry shampoo.
Dry shampoo in an aerosol can often contains alcohols that leave your hair dry, brittle, and prone to breakage.
Back in the day (ok, back in the 90’s, which really isn’t that long ago) aerosol cans contained chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) which played a major role in the depletion of the Ozone layer. CFCs have now been banned in most countries, however, not in all.
Unfortunately, most aerosol cans (including the ones you use for dry shampoo) use volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to propel their product. Once in the air, VOCs contribute to ground-level Ozone levels, contributing to smog production.
At life UNpacked our dry shampoo is 100% natural, chemical-free, and biodegradable.. So take it with you on your next outdoor adventure.
- Gently tap/shake the bottom of the container to settle any loose powder.
- Unscrew the lid. *Be careful as you do this to prevent spilling the powder. It is best to open the container in a vertical position with the lid facing up.
- Shake dry shampoo onto fingers or directly onto hair.
- Brush through (if necessary) to spread powder.
- Tousle your hair to finish.
*Keep your shaker for future refills.

Nylon dental floss.
Traditional dental floss is usually made from either nylon (petroleum), teflon (the chemical mouthful polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)), or synthetic wax (petroleum).
These toxins can be absorbed into your bloodstream during those times that you floss a little too hard, or it’s been, say, longer than the suggested three times a day since your last floss.
Discarded dental floss cannot be recycled, takes 30-80 years to break down, and can be harmful to wildlife.
Floss refills replace the need for plastic dental floss containers and allow you to refill and reuse instead.

I’ve been a LifeUnpacked customer for over 18 months and I love their oral care products. Am so happy not to be contributing to plastic pollution. I’m really liking the charcoal floss & it seems to work really well with my tight teeth. That you’re a BC based company is a bonus. Thank you!
Hi Linda! Thanks for the wonderful review, we're so happy to count you as a loyal customer!! Glad you like our new Bamboo Charcoal Floss <3 Thanks again for the support!!!
I tried both the corn and the bamboo floss. Corn didn't work, because it was breaking all the time and getting stuck between my teeth. Bamboo worked well but wasn't compostable. When I was ready for a refill, I decided to try the bamboo charcoal. Mind blown! It's so soft and gentle. I feel like I'm flossing with a silky thread. And it is compostable. Win win. Also since the thread is black, you can clearly see all the plaque that you're removing, which is usually not visible on the white floss.
Hi Olga! We're stoked you like our new bamboo charcoal floss <3 100% compostable and biodegradable, it's the way to go! Thanks for taking the time to leave a review, we appreciate your support for us and for the planet!
My first order from Life Unpacked was a bundle of things, and corn floss was included! I was a titch worried about the wide teeth vs tight teeth description, but opted for the corn floss anyways because there's no point in ordering it if it's not completely biodegradable! Anyways, do not hesitate to order corn floss even if your teeth are pretty close together! I had no issue. Overall I'm stoked with absolutely everything from Life Unpacked. Happy to support a local Vancity business instead of hitting up the drugstore for a load of plastic containers full of bathroom products. The prices are totally reasonable and my order shipped the day of :)
Hi Erica - thank you so much for the wonderful support!! We're so happy you enjoy the corn floss. It is indeed 100% compostable and biodegradable <3 amazing job on staying away from plastic!!
The floss is super easy to refill into its glass vial. So happy to finally have a non-plastic floss that won't harm wildlife. I'd always hated putting those strings of plastic floss into the garbage and worrying about them ending up in some animal's gullet. Now I can feel good about flossing, and so I floss more regularly.
Thanks Fiona for protecting wildlife; we're stocked you enjoy the floss!!
I’m an avid “flosser” - ever since I was a little girl and the dentist told me it was just as important as brushing! I always have floss on me and I floss more than I brush. This floss is great. It lasts a long time (considering how much I floss) AND it is completely COMPOSTABLE, same with the PACKAGING is compostable! You’ve got a customer for life!
Mary, thank you so much for the review! We love that you're an avid flosser and that our corn floss does the job perfectly for you. Couldn't ask for more!!

Nylon dental floss.
Traditional dental floss is usually made from either nylon (petroleum), teflon (the chemical mouthful polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)), or synthetic wax (petroleum).
These toxins can be absorbed into your bloodstream during those times that you floss a little too hard, or it’s been, say, longer than the suggested three times a day since your last floss.
Discarded dental floss cannot be recycled, takes 30-80 years to break down, and can be harmful to wildlife.
Glass floss containers replace the need for plastic dental floss containers and allow you to refill and reuse instead.

I'm absolutely thrilled with this product. This allowed not just my household to eliminate another plastic item from circulation. Because we are thrilled, at least 3 other households are making the change. Very happy
Hello and thank you for the review. We're so happy that the word got out and enabled other households to make the change. Thanks for doing your part in helping our planet!!

First, I love the package and the refill options for obvious reasons. Second, the flosssss though! It is grippy and feels like it is actually cleaning in between my teeth! The regular floss always felt too smooth and therefore ineffective in “scrubbing” between my teeth. I am genuinely happy to have come across this product. Thank you again, Unpacked!
Hello Ann- We're thrilled you enjoy our corn floss; It is a great product and 100% compostable. Glad you appreciate the refills as well. Thanks for being a Green Groomer <3

The floss does it’s job, tastes good in the mouth, the container is just the right size, and is really cute.
Hi Mishel- We're glad you enjoy our corn floss, it means a lot to us!! Thanks for being a Green Groomer and do your part in helping the planet!

I was shocked at how durable the floss was... as this was my principal concern! I honestly do not think it ripped once the entire round. Makes me thankful that I got rid of a petroleum-based product in the bathroom!
Hi Andrew- we're so glad you enjoy our floss!! Thanks for the review and keep the plastic out of your bathroom!
This floss is great! It’s strong and comes in a nice looking container! And compostable :)
Hey Jess - Thanks for leaving a great review about our floss! We really love it to, and that the refills come in a compostable bag :)

Great handle and love the shave. Easy to load razor blades into
Stoked that you're enjoying our Gold Metal Razor and that you are finding it easy to use. Thanks for your review Erin!

I was a bit scared but I'm committed to reducing my waste so I was set on trying a safety razor, so I compared prices for some other brands and Life Unpacked offers a great price! The razor is sturdy and pretty. Also they're a local Vancity company... So everything is peachy. Anyways, I got used to this razor after my first leg was done and it's SO MUCH SMOOTHER than a disposable razor's effect. I have thicka** Italian hair too. Just don't apply much pressure and use with their shave bar and you will be SET!!! Also... refill blades are so much cheaper than buying cartridges for a flippin Venus whatever razor. Anyways I'm absolutely stoked about everything I've ordered from these guys and I encourage everyone to hit them up
Plastic-free is the way to go! We're stocked you got the razor, razor blade and shave bar combo and that you're enjoying it!! Thank you sooooo much for your leaving us a great review :)

So glad not to be using plastic anymore!
Hi Vicki-thanks for the review and so happy for you to have taken the steps to stay away from plastic!

I was really intimidated by the razor at first but after using it a few times I feel very comfortable with it. It’s quite heavy ( obviously with being metal) compared to regular razors which took me some getting used to. Overall I’ve really enjoyed the switch to a zero waste razor. I use it in combination with the shave bar and have NO razor burn. Love it!!
Hi Michelena- thanks again! We're glad you enjoy the safety razor; what a game changer for the planet! Thanks for your support, it means a lot for our small business :)

I love the white metal razor I bought. It is so sleak and stylish! It goes great with all my bathroom items. Love the clean shave I get with it - truly one of the better buys I have had for myself lately! :D
Hey Susan - That is great to hear that the white metal razor goes so nicely with your bathroom decor! We love that it works great for you as well. Think of how many plastic razors you are saving from the landfills now. :)

I just received my first order from Life Unpack and so far I couldn't be happier. The shampoo bar is fantastic! I have thick curly hair and was frankly unconvinced that it would do the job. I was totally wrong and am now a happy convert. Not only did the shampoo bar clean my hair beautifully but it also moisturized it, eliminating the need for a separate moisturizer. I also bought the razor, which is the best I have ever owned and pretty to boot (I have the rose gold). The toothbrush is just the right size and feels good with its bamboo handle. Wish the bristles were compostable too but I guess you just haven't been able to find anything suitable. My package arrived quickly and the entire experience with Life Unpacked has been nothing short of easy, satisfying and happy. Thank you for helping the earth recover by providing these ethical and amazing products!
Hey Anna, We're so thrilled that you love the shampoo bar, the razor and the bamboo toothbrush. We like the rose gold colour too :) Thank you for your support and for being part of our green groomer community!
Love the shampoo & conditioner bars! They lather really well, smell great and are all natural. Love the zero waste factor and I can easily pack them for traveling :)
Thanks for your great review Katie :) Keep up the great work on going green with your bathroom routine. Please feel free to share this with your family and friends!
The Shampoo Bar is a great alternative to shampoo, it is 100% natural, and doesn’t strip your hair of its natural oils, eliminating the need for a conditioner. I’ve never used a Shampoo Bar, so it was great to experience something different. It lathers perfectly for a great wash. Unfortunately it isn’t for me, as I have long and extremely thick hair, I couldn’t quite get enough to really give my hair a good wash. Though, my hair is shiny and less frizzy because of it! Perhaps in the future we will see shampoo? I do love the idea of the bar!
Thank you so much for taking the time to review our products, Kimberley! It means a ton to us for you to share your opinion with others who are interested in the same items.
My girlfriend and I have been using the products for the past month or so and we're loving them. The soap and shampoo bars are my personal favourites. Definitely the best selling soap I've ever bought. The best part for us is that we feel good knowing that we're not creating extra plastic waste with the bathroom products that we buy!
Keep up the awesome work to share the products with your girlfriend and family! So glad that you love the soap :)
I love how easy it is to go plastic free with Life Unpacked! It has truly changed my bathroom routine. I highly recommend their Shampoo bar! It works so great I don't have to use conditioner anymore cause it's all natural.
