Better Earth

 

Refuse – Reduce – Reuse

We seek out companies that have standards similar to our own and that emphasize both high quality, and personal and environmental health. We attempt to find companies that offer high quality products with an option for low or no plastic packaging.

We re-use all non-plastic packaging that is sent to us whenever possible.  If there is no way to reuse the packaging, it is either recycled or composted.

Recycle – Compost

If reusing is not an option, we recycle or compost all other waste.  We have a composting system that allows us to take non-plastic materials and turn it into garden soil.

Product Packaging

We aim to offer the purest body and home care items possible.  To accomplish this, we have to store our products in a way that protects their potency and life without adding any dangerous chemicals or preservatives.  We dug into the research and after much contemplation, we decided the best way to offer our customers highest quality products was to select Miron glass jars and bottles.

Miron glass is a deep purple color and very different from your average glass bottle or jar. Clear, blue, green, and brown colored glass bottles/jars all allow visible light to pass through to the product contained within.  This means that the delicate ingredients, those same ingredients that are supposed to supply nourishment to your skin, would be degraded.  Ingredients simply cannot stay as fresh when exposed to visible light.  This is what makes Miron Violet Glass so special.  The completely unique properties of Miron glass means that only violet light and the spectral range of UV-A and infrared light can pass through while all visible light cannot.  These frequencies of light have been found to protect while visible light accelerates decomposition.  UV-A light, which can pass through Miron glass, is responsible for slowing down growth of bacteria, mold, and pathogens. Infrared light, which Miron glass also allows through, has been shown to have healing properties.  The dynamic energy of the nourishing products contained within this specialty glass is preserved thereby making it perfect for storing any type of remedy including ones for your skin.

Plastic free and zero waste options

We use paperboard containers for our lip balms and deodorants. These paperboard tubes and the sugarcane based labels are both home or facility compostable which makes them a great eco-friendly and zero waste alternative.

Shipping boxes and envelopes

Depending on the size and weight, products will be shipped in a sturdy shipping box or envelope. We strive to use the most affordable shipping methods possible in order to pass that savings along to you.  Much of Green Earth Naturals packaging is from reused and/or recycled materials. 

We use EcoEnclose for much of our packaging materials/boxes; however, we do use USPS boxes (also from recycled content) when necessary.  We absolutely love EcoEnclose because it is made in the USA from 100% post-consumer and post-industrial content.  The packaging, including the tissue paper, is fully recyclable and biodegradable, and there is absolutely no virgin fiber content.

Oils

We are concerned about both the social and environmental impacts of palm oil production around the world.  The is why we have moved away from using palm oil products. Additionally, we seek to purchase fair trade certified oils and butters whenever it is at all possible.

Product Info

Shampoo and Conditioner

A zero waste option for hair care is solid shampoo and conditioner bars. While some might fear that a bar of shampoo will act like soap in their hair, Green Earth Naturals bars are not soap. Instead, these bars contain the active ingredients in a bottle of shampoo or conditioner without the water added. For our shampoo, we chose only the most gentle, plant based surfactants that are both safe for the skin and the environment. The ingredients are tough enough to cleanse the hair, but also so mild that they will not strip or dry out the hair. Our conditioner bars are made with nourishing and repairing proteins like quinoa and baobab, and organic butters and oils. They are a perfect choice for all types of hair.

While this shampoo bar might look smaller than a typical bottle of shampoo, it can easily outlast several bottles of the liquid stuff. With proper care (don’t leave it sitting in a puddle of water), this shampoo bar can last up to 120 washes. Not only will the hair and skin benefit from this gentle, nourishing shampoo, but the environment will too as there is no plastic bottle left to dispose of. It is a very zero waste alternative to the traditional bottles of shampoo. We like to say that our shampoo and conditioner bars are a cruelty free, waste free, earth and body friendly way to wash and condition your hair.

Customer Reviews

*****”I have frizzy, dry hair and this shampoo bar left my scalp very clean but my hair shiny and smooth (an impressive feat for me). It was very easy to use as well. I’ll be purchasing another bar when I eventually run out.”
*****”I’ve tried this conditioner for a few times now and my hair is looking fantastic! I’ve received several compliments on it since trying this. I highly recommend it.”
*****”This shampoo bar is amazing. I use very little when I wash my hair and it’s amazing how much you can get it to lather. Definitely recommend.”
*****”I love using this conditioner for my hair. It leaves it feeling soft without weighed down and the lack of packaging is wonderful. Looking forward to purchasing again in the future!”

Deodorant

We wanted a safe deodorant that actually worked, and we wanted to be able to know exactly what was in each stick of deodorant. We use only the safest, vegan ingredients and pure, organically grown, essential oils, and none of the toxins. Our handcrafted deodorant lists all of the essential oils on our labels so each individual can decide if the ingredients are right for them.

One of the issues many people encounter when trying to use a more natural deodorant is skin irritation. Preventing this was important to us and it was why we worked hard on a formula that was not only effective, but gentle on the skin. Our vegan, organic oils, butters, and waxes calm the skin and prevent irritation.

We have worked hard to formulate a deodorant that can glide on smoothly and is so effective that the user can apply very sparingly. One tube can last 3+ months with normal daily use, and often our customers report it lasting even longer. 

When it is time to reorder a new tube, our paperboard containers are renewable, biodegradable, and recyclable, which makes this deodorant a great eco-friendly and zero waste alternative to plastic deodorant tubes.

Customer Reviews

*****”I’ve used a few other natural deodorants and I have to say, I think this is my favorite! It’s not sticky or crumbly and it smells great and works very well. I had to apply mainstream deodorant every day and found that often, it was no longer working by the end of the day. With this, I don’t even have to apply every day. Love it!”
*****”I’ve tried a lot of deodorants with baking soda and they all irritated my skin. This is the first time I’ve been able to use one with zero irritation! It smells lovely and it WORKS! I will definitely be a repeat buyer.”
*****”This deodorant is amazing! I have been using it for about 10 months now. I tend to sweat more than the average person, and this product does a great job at keeping the smell to a minimum, and it lasts all day! “

Oils and Butters

We seek to use certified organic and fair trade oils and butters. Oils, extracts, herbs, super-fruits, and natural butters are a passion. We love creating ultra concentrated products so you can use small amounts and still get dramatic results. Each ingredient has a specific purpose and it is amazing to see how nature can deeply benefit our skin.

Customer Reviews

*****”This stuff feels amazing on the body! The scent is mild and lovely!”
*****”I love this repair butter. It’s so smooth, moisturizing, and smells great. Love it!!!”
*****”I have ordered this facial oil many times and it is wonderful. I always order the large bottle and it does last me about four months using it 2 times a day. I have very sensitive skin and it does not irritate it at all. I like the way it smells too. Also the bottle is so pretty and it is glass with a great quality pump that works well. Thanks for making such a great product!”
*****”I absolutely LOVE this belly butter. I used it when I was pregnant for the first time three years ago and I’m using it again this time. It has a soft lavender smell this is not overpowering. My belly feels soft and moisturized. I even bought it for some of my friends to give as gifts.”

Creams Balms and Salves

Herbal and essential oil based creams, balms, and salves make it possible to care for the skin with all-natural, botanical ingredients. We use certified organic ingredients that are known for soothing and healing all types of skin issues. We have focused much of our product lines toward pregnancy/postpartum and baby care items because we know that new moms and babies often need a little extra care.

Customer Reviews

*****”Shipped fast! Used right away when my newborn was clusterfeeding and it works well. So glad I can use this and not have to use anything that has animal products in it. Would purchase again definitely!”

*****”Loved this for postpartum care. Soothing and healing. Even the nurses at the hospital wanted to know where to buy my postpartum care items. High quality. Thank you! “

*****”Used this with my first born and now for my second. Wonderful for their delicate skin!”

*****”This ultra conditioning lip balm is amazing! The texture is wonderfully smooth. It goes on, and coves the lips with a nice even layer after just one swipe. It leaves you lips feeling soft, hydrated, and smooth for hours. Plus I don’t feel like I have to reapply all the time like I did with other lip balms.”

*****”Love it! Makes my lips super soft and it’s not too heavy! Super fast shipping, and eco friendly packaging! Thank you!”

Soaps

Handcrafted soap is perfect for even the most sensitive or delicate skin. Our soaps contain only certified organic oils and butters. Each bar is packed full of cocoa and shea butters along with skin soothing oils. Because these butters are largely “unsaponifiable”, they remain in the soap as moisturizers to nourish your skin.  Our soaps also retain their natural glycerin which further moisturizes your skin.

We always strive to make hard, long lasting bars of soap that will not break down quickly.  We do not use any artificial bar hardeners and instead have chosen to focus on including more oils and butters for your skin’s benefit.  However, no matter our efforts to make a hard bar, it is always best to keep your soap in a dry place or use a soap dish that allows the water to drain whenever possible.
