As our species becomes collectively more conscious, the idea and concept of constantly buying plastic bottled body wash feels, well, unconscious. American skincare brand Plus has invented the ultimate sustainable swap for your body wash routine.
Whether you’re staying home or on the go, Plus Body Wash is a set of light-weight, dissolvable paper sachets. Literally, you just have to add water and the packaging is all completely dissolvable too. and You can watch the packaging dissolve down the drain on Plus’s website.
The dehydrated formula eliminates unnecessary water from the typical body wash experience, with 100% dissolvable packaging that leaves no trace behind. Each compostable zip pouch comes with 16 single-serve sheets housed in compact dissolvable sachets, making The Body Wash the perfect stocking filler or travel companion, for those who want to shop sustainability and be kinder to the planet.
The brand is vegan and cruelty-free and has the purpose to help with long-term sustainability, considering that every year in the U.K., bath and shower products account for 10,000 tonnes of plastic waste, with typical products containing over 70% water.
Plus has really set out to reimagine personal care and provide solutions that are better for us and the planet, building sustainability-first technology to reduce environmental impact at every stage of production.
By removing excess water in manufacturing (Plus uses 38% less water than traditional bottled body wash) and eliminating single-use plastics with the use of dissolvable and compostable packaging, Plus results in 80% fewer carbon emissions in shipping vs. bottled shower gel.
Available in two scents: SUMMER (neroli, orange, lemon) and WAVES (coconut, sea salt, jasmine), as well as an unscented option; CLOUD. Each Plus Body Wash pack contains 16 single-serve sheets for £12.00 and is sold exclusively on cleanwith.plus.
