Autumn is fast approaching, and if there was ever a season to stock up on matches and scented candles, it’s here. But what seems like a simple purchase can quickly get overwhelming. There are all sorts of shapes, sizes, colors, fragrances, and of course – different types of candle wax. So, which one should you pick?

Soap is one of those things that seamlessly fit into our everyday lives. If you think about it, it’s everywhere – in the shower, on your sink, in the kitchen, bathroom, laundry… But most of the time, we don’t think about it. It’s justthere. 

But as something we use so often, shouldn’t we know a little bit more about the ones we take home? After all, there are thousands of formulas out there, all with their own proposed miracle effects. But more than a few of them have less-than-healthy ingredients snuck in – and do you know how to spot them?

Not to worry. In today’s article, we’re breaking down everything you need to know about soap – from the science behind an effective one, to which ingredients to look for and which ones to avoid, as well as how your sudsy choices affect the planet, our furry friends, and your own health.

Yup – settle in, friend. You’re about to become a soap expert.

If you’re anything like me, there was a time in your life when you purchased quite a bit of fast fashion. Hey, we didn’t really know what we were getting into at the time! Now, as someone trying to reduce my plastic waste and carbon footprint, it doesn’t really make sense to throw all those clothes out. After all, reduce, REUSE, recycle, right?

Yet, each time I put my clothes into the wash, I knew they were releasing harmful microfibers into the waterways. So, when I learned about the Cora Ball, I wanted to save up and make the investment.

Here’s my honest review of the laundry ball that promises to reduce microfiber pollution after one month of use.
