One LastSwab Replaces 1000 Single-Use Cotton Swabs

Every day 1.5 billion cotton swabs are produced, causing it to become one of the largest marine pollution sources. In the UK, there are nine discarded swabs per 100 feet of beach. On top of that, the CO2 emissions from the production and transportation of the single-use item is a...

A little update about personal sustainability!

I decided to start my decrease in waste in the bathroom. I've taken inventory of what products I have, what I need to finish, and what can be replaced.

First thing to go was cotton swabs. I am notorious for using these ALL THE TIME. I switched to LastSwab.

LastSwab is made out of corn based material and it good for up to 1000* uses. It is durable and long lasting. It's supposedly good for around 3 years of usage. And so far I am loving it!

This company also makes LastTissue and LastRound. I am curious about trying these out in the future.

I am waiting for LastRound to be released as it's still in the KickStarter phase, but I am also looking at other alternatives. I use cotton rounds fairly often with my face wash routine. There are a lot of cotton round alternatives on Etsy as well.

I am looking into Boie for my next toothbrush and face/body scrubbies. I am not a fan of bamboo toothbrushes(sorry y'all😅) so this seems like a good alternative. The toothbrush heads are interchangeable. And Boie offers a recycling return program for both the toothbrushes and scrubbies.

We all know loofahs are germ fueled disasters and clairisonic heads have no way to be properly recycled. So these scrubbies could be a good alternative.

Will report back when I try them.

Also on the future list: Toothpaste, mouthwash, floss, shampoo, conditioner, bodywash

All of these I still have A LOT to work through before I seek replacements. So it's a start!
