That is, all the parts of the plants they acquire as ingredients are used in the product.<\/p>\n

4. <\/strong>Coola oxybenzone \u2013free sunscreen<\/h2>\n

Oxybenzone, one of the ingredients used in most sunscreens, is sucked in by the corals, disrupting their ability to absorb UV light which they need to reproduce. Statistics show that approx 14,000 tons of our sunscreens reach the coral reefs every year.<\/p>\n

16. Toothpaste and mouthwash \u2013 Lush and Georganics<\/h3>\n

\"ToothpasteThese two companies make toothpaste in the form of dental tablets giving you a choice to move on from the plastic tubes of toothpastes. We really like the idea of replacing the billions of tubes of plastic packaging with these tabs that come in glass bottles (Lush).<\/p>\n
