Here are 10 eco-friendly travel essentials you’ll want to pack for your next journey.

1. Bamboo Travel Toothbrush

Say goodbye to plastic and hello to sleek, compact, and sustainable oral care. Our Bamboo Screwable Travel Toothbrush is travel essential! It's lightweight, compact, and features a removable head for easy storage and replacement. Prefer a foldable version? We’ve got that too. Both come with BPA-free soft bristles and a reusable travel case.

2. Toothpaste Tablets

Ditch the messy toothpaste tubes. Toothpaste tablets are a travel game-changer. Just chew, brush, and go! They’re lightweight, space-saving, and plastic-free—ideal for minimalist and eco-conscious travelers. We proudly feature options like SuperBee tablets that are fluoride-free, cruelty-free, and packed in refillable tins.

3. Solid Soap Bar

   
   

A compact solid soap bar is one of the easiest and most effective ways to reduce plastic waste on your travels. No leaks, no bulky bottles—just pure, natural cleansing. Pair it with a linen soap saver bag for gentle exfoliation and easy drying. Many of our soaps are made with moisturizing ingredients and divine scents, making your travel routine feel like a mini spa day.

4. Soap Saver Bag

   
   

A linen soap saver bag doubles as an exfoliator and travel pouch. Just slip your soap inside, lather, and hang to dry. It keeps your soap lasting longer and your kit cleaner.

5. Solid Hair Care Products

   
   

Say goodbye to hotel shampoo. Try compact solid shampoo and conditioner bars from brands like HiBAR—plastic-free, mess-free, and salon-quality.

6. Natural Deodorant (Travel Size)

Chemical-free, aluminum-free, and made with ingredients you can trust. Our mini natural deodorants from brands like New Day Organics come in refreshing scents like Geranium & Jasmine or Lime Coconut, perfect for sensitive skin and travel-friendly bags.

7. Powder Face Cleanser

Traditional cleansers are bulky and leak-prone. Try a water-activated powder cleanser, like those from Hanalei or natural travel minis we carry. They’re compact, TSA-friendly, and gentle on your skin.

8. Reusable Stainless Steel Water Bottle

Stay hydrated and skip single-use plastics. A reusable stainless steel water bottle keeps your drink cold (or hot) for hours, whether you're hiking, sightseeing, or at the airport. Bonus: You’ll save money by refilling at water stations.

9. Compact Eco Toiletry Bag

Organize your essentials in a jute toiletry bag that’s as stylish as it is sustainable. With a water-resistant lining, dual zippers, and elastic straps to keep products in place, it’s a travel must-have for business trips, beach vacations, or weekend escapes.

10. Reusable Cotton Storage Pouches

Store your toothbrush, tablets, or small essentials in breathable cotton drawstring bags. Reusable, washable, and lightweight, they help you stay organized and reduce single-use plastic.
