First off, thank you for visiting our website! We starting our own journey as a zero-waste family with a clear goal in mind to make meaningful changes in our habits and lifestyle; our mantra has always been “have less impact on the planet, create less waste, and become better, more sustainable consumers”.
In our quest to swap plastic or disposable products with durable, plastic-free and less wasteful alternatives, we found there were companies we fell we could trust completely. These companies are now part of the EarthBits family and we are very proud to collaborate with them and showcase their products on this site!
On the other hand, we also found there were a lot of other products that were advertised as “eco-friendly” but didn’t seem to us as sustainable or ethical as we wanted them to be. With that in mind, we decided to launch our own brand of products, sourced from small, often family-run suppliers we can fully trust. All our products have a story to tell, and they have been made with our beautiful Earth in mind! I hope you will love them as much as we do!
Are these sponges grown near fukashima in Japan . Are they guaranteed unaffected by radiation and/or contamination?
No they are not grown there!
Is this sponge just for the face or do you recommend it for the body?
It can be used for the body but that will shorten its durability as it is plant-based so it will decompose quicker! We usually recommend one of our other sponges for the body. Hope that helps!
Warm regards,
Fraan
