You’ve come the point where you’re ready to stop the talk and walk the walk. To clean up your act; get with the green and commit to living an earth-friendly life.
Before the enormity of that move overwhelms you back into complacency remember, you don’t have to go whole-hog. Baby steps. That’s the philosophy that Ecoexistence owner Kym Klopp brings to her eco-yet-fashionable shop.
Start clean with some Ground Soap. Your skin will thank you for not inflicting any preservatives or synthetic ingredients on your pores. Oh, and they won’t miss those perfumes or dyes either.
Sip your way to saving the planet with glass drinking straws. No toxins to leach into your system and you can save hundreds of little plastic straws from an everlasting life in the landfill.
Just follow the lay of the shop to get great ideas on how to incorporate big or small green ideas into your home. Pets also warrant a section - Kym knows they’re part of your newly-greened family too.
Some of Kym’s best buys are for kids, including the Mini Mioche collection of organic cotton printed shirts and pyjama sets. Kitchen stuff stands out too, especially the Thermolon-coated GreenPan cookware that’s non-stick without the threat of offing chemical gases when your meal becomes unexpectedly Cajun-style.
Whether it’s sweet smelling, all-natural Green Beaver shampoo, trendy stainless steel food Greentainers or a fashion statement that doubles as a political statement – these baby steps toward a greener life are not only easy they’re stylish.
