What our refills are made of
Wild
Most personal care comes wrapped in plastic, which never truly disappears. It hangs around for thousands of years, before breaking down into microplastics, accumulating in our oceans, soils, and um..even us? Not ideal.
Our refills are designed to disappear
So, we created packaging (in the form of bottles and casings) made from compostable materials. The idea is that they biodegrade or break down wherever they end up. They do their job, and then they disappear.
Our two kinds of refill.
Solid Refills
We use these for our Stick Deodorant and Lip Balm
✅100% plastic-free
✅Made from plant fibres
✅Made from compostable material
✅Recyclable with paper
Made from bamboo
We use bamboo to make our refill casing because it grows fast. Really fast. Unlike traditional paper (which relies on slow-growing trees), bamboo regenerates quickly, making it a more renewable option. We turn it into a paper-like material that wraps your refill, simple as that.
Liquid refills
Used for body wash, hand wash and roll-ons.
✅Made from microbial fermentation
✅No microplastics
✅No BPA/PFAS/phthalates
✅Made from compostable material (Vivomer)
Is it plastic?
No - even if it looks like it. Traditional plastic is made from fossil fuels and sticks around for hundreds of years. Our liquid refills are made using a natural fermentation process instead which forms a natural polymer. Think of it like making sourdough or kombucha.
We love that they look and feel as sturdy as plastic, but break down entirely once in the right conditions. They’ll be stable in your bathroom, but once you put them into the compost (or a bin) they start to break down.
A small switch that adds up
Since 2020, we’ve diverted over 933,000 kg of single-use plastic from landfill.* We’ve made it our mission to fill bathrooms with refillable things and reduce the amount of bottles we are throwing away. It’s a little change to your daily routine with a seriously big impact.
*Based on the average plastic weight saved per refill across our Deodorant, Body Wash, Hand Wash, Lip Balm and Roll-on ranges, multiplied by refills sold in each since 2020.
