Kindly Yours Seamless X-Back Bralette - Plant Based Fashion

 

A plant-based bra? Who knew!? You can feel good about what you wear with a Kindly Yours Seamless X-Back Bralette like this one, since it’s the first-ever sustainable bralette! In addition to recycled materials, it also features removable plant-based pads made of sugar cane! Being sustainable doesn’t mean they sacrificed quality, either; the construction and feel are excellent.


I chose the Black Ombre colorway and I love the fun, contemporary design, which is also available in a whole range of other colors and patterns, too. The fact that it’s a racerback really made me happy because they look great and they provide wonderful support than other types. 


I wear a size 38DD and found that the 3XXL was a perfect fit, with a lot of support and adjustable straps that made it super comfortable to wear. The material is definitely stretchy enough, but also holds everything in place no matter the activity: on the elliptical, doing yard work, or normal day wear. 


That said, on a few occasions I did have to reposition the pads since they tend to fold in, but it’s not a major concern. I’m impressed that they’re really affordable despite the amazing quality, making it easy to do good for yourself and the planet at the same time!

Vistic Car Air Freshener - Fara

Step up your game with the modernistic and reusable Fara air freshener from Vistic! This sleek air freshener combines practicality with design, resulting in a total game changer when you think of car air fresheners. It’s beautifully handmade with Kvadrat fabric, a sustainable Danish textile company that works to minimize the environmental impact. This is just one example of Vistic's goal as a lifestyle brand to generate positive change in the world with thoughtful design and material choices.


Vistic carries three different designs of car air fresheners, the first being Fara, the type that hangs, an adhesive dashboard mount called the Odete, and finally the Drec, a vent clip freshener. Along with the variety of different types of fresheners comes a wide array of color choices that are each accompanied by their own scent.


In all there are six colors paired with individual scents:
Pink (Grapefruit)
Black (Midsummer Night)
Olive (Pine & Eucalyptus)
Violet (Silver Mountain Water)
Brown (Pomegranate)
Light Blue (Suede)



I received the Fara (the hanging freshener) in the Olive color with the Pine & Eucalyptus fragrance oil. Each scent is made from 100% pure fragrance oils that should last up to six weeks depending on condition. The packaging is posh, and reminds me of something you’d see available at Ikea.


The directions are pretty self-explanatory: open the device by turning clockwise to reveal the felt fabric rounds. Then, soak the felt with a good number of drops (2/3 of total capacity recommended), which as you can see, I simply dotted the fabric front and back on both of the felt rounds.


The freshener hangs at a good distance and the rubber hangers are sturdy enough that it won't swing wildly and become an obstructive annoyance. The strength will be determined based upon the amount of oil used, and I found it to distribute the scent evenly throughout the vehicle. The Pine & Eucalyptus is very clean, healthy and has a bit of sweet honey scent that left my truck smelling wonderfully.




Overall, this is by far my favorite car accessory, not only for its stylish design, but also the fact that it is reusable whether you purchase more refills from Vistic or use your own essential oils. I love that it came with extra felt pads, but I only find it necessary to use those if I change the fragrance. Quite honestly, if you lose any or they need replacement, you could even make your own from wool felt! I personally would love to try the other fragrances, and support this environmentally conscious brand even further.

Seventh Generation Free & Clear Baby Sample Kit

Salutations Cuppies,

Around the same time I received three samples of Free & Clear laundry detergent, I also received a fun little baby sample kit from Seventh Generation to give my honest opinion.

In my life I have pursued a career and education with children for six years plus I have learned a lot about the products that mothers and caregivers alike care about for their little ones. Learning more about Seventh Generation, I am excited to pass this information along and also keep in mind for when I am ready to start a family of my own.


The packaging of each of the three products I received are incredibly adorable and would definitely be something that would catch my eye. Although the packaging is adorable, it’s so much more than that. I was glad to learn about how each product is made, and how they not only keep your baby in mind, but also the parents and the environment.





The Free & Clear diaper is made for a baby’s sensitive skin, ultra-absorbent and contains zero percent lotions or fragrances. I received two pairs of size 1 diapers, and out the bag they are noticeably soft inside and out. I like the fact that the quilted liner inside expands with more surface area to catch everything. The liner is evidently well thought out with a quilted design and softer material for newborns up to size 2, and is also made with unbleached cotton. The tabs are large enough and easy to use. The best feature, in my opinion, is that each diaper is made with sustainable sourced materials (wood fluff pulp) meaning it’s natural, renewable and biodegradable. Thinking about how many diapers get dumped into a landfills in a year this is a step in the right direction to reduce waste.









I pleasantly surprised that the texture was silky smooth and great for a baby’s sensitive skin, and it spreads very easily. Just using a small dime size goes a long way and instantly my hand felt cool, hydrated and soft to touch. There is a very faint scent of coconut from the organic coconut oil. It’s made from sustainable ingredients that are plant-based so it’s great it contains NO sulfates, phthalates, parabens, formaldehyde donors, mineral oil or petrolatum. Overall, a lightweight, lightly scented moisturizer from a trusted brand.





I can’t even count how many wipes I have used in a day at the daycare, so I know the importance of how a good wipe handles any situation, from an unfortunate blowout to an icky nose. These wipes are labeled fragrance free and I truly don’t smell anything. I think it is unnecessary for wipes to have a fragrance anyways because it just adds useless chemicals. These are made for sensitive skin like most products from Seventh Generation. It’s very important to think about the ingredients because every time you wipe you are essentially applying it directly onto your baby’s delicate skin. What’s great about Seventh Generation, unlike other major brands, is that it does not contain Phenoxyethanol (a chemical compound that can be an irritant to the skin). With that said, it also removes other harmful chemicals such as alcohol and parabens. Out of the packaging the wipes are definitely thicker than most I have used, but I love the fact that you are able to clean up more with a single wipe and still have the softness factor.




Overall, I'm very satisfied and thankful try out the sample pack I received from Generation Good. It’s a brand that I now trust and will turn to when I do have little bundles of my own someday. I love the transparency and the effort Seventh Generation gives to its products, consumers and production of the materials with sustainability and safeness in mind.
