Let's be real: between school runs, endless chores and managing the family budget, "saving the planet" can feel like just another thing on your never-ending to-do list.
Here's the good news: you don't need to overhaul your entire life to make a real difference. Change starts with the choices we make at home—in the everyday moments, in our busiest rooms.
A quick shower, loading the dishwasher, popping on another load of laundry. These little things we do every day? They can add up to real change when we work together.
Where to begin? In your busiest rooms.
The kitchen, laundry and bathroom might be your family's messiest spaces, but they're also packed with potential for positive change. Start where you spend the most time, and watch how small swaps quickly add up.
The bathroom.
Your self-care routine is the perfect place to start making changes.
- Swap single-use bottles for refillable body care.
- Choose natural formulas over harsh chemicals.
- Make the 4-minute shower challenge a family game.
- Turn tap-off time into a toothbrushing contest the kids can win.
Turn every shower and hand wash into a luxurious, low-waste escape with our refillable Bath & Body Starter Pack. From hair to hands and everything in between, it’s a win for your family and the planet.
The laundry.
When the washing calls, every load is an opportunity for change.
- Swap bulky laundry bottles and plastic-wrapped pods for paper-based refills.
- Switch to plant-powered stain removal.
- Conserve energy with cold washes.
- Dry your washing naturally when you can.
Make every load count for something good with our refillable Laundry Starter Pack. Proven power, 97% less waste and only 34c per load (yes, really!)
The kitchen.
The heart of the home, where families gather and small changes matter.
- Swap single-use sprays for refillable cleaning products.
- Choose concentrated dish cleaning formulas that last longer.
- Make recycling a whole-family mission.
- Turn storing and sorting staples into family fun.
Need a hard-working, refillable cleaning kit for the whole kitchen? Our Kitchen Starter Pack has everything you need to get started.
Progress over perfection.
You're not aiming for overnight transformation. Start with one room, one product, one new habit. Maybe it's refillable dishwashing liquid in the kitchen, plastic-free shampoo in the bathroom, or 34c laundry loads that save money and plastic.
Your house, your rules. Your pace, your journey.
