Yes, it’s back Friday. Loads of box stores are hocking outrageous deals. But we know all of you would rather get your goods and wares from companies that have human beings and the Earth’s well-being in mind. So, for this week’s Friday Finds, we’ve rounded up 5 eco-friendly businesses you should check out today.
I am a firm believer in gifting underwear for the holidays… Just not underwear that comes in a five-per pack. We love Good & Fairs’ selection of panties and boxers. Why? Because they are attractive, comfortable, and would make amazing stocking stuffers for the one you love. Good & Fair makes our list because the company is dedicated to creating fair trade clothing that uses environmentally sustainable materials. Priced at $12.
2. Love Your Lips Treatment Balm at Eco Diva Beauty
Everyone knows that winter is totally brutal on lips. So, make certain that you are armed to the gills with therapeutic lip balm. One balm you should definitely carry in your bag come below freezing temperatures is Dr. Alkaitis’ Love Your Lips Treatment Balm. It’s filled with organic ingredients, rejuvenating abilities, and anti-inflammatory properties. This balm is priced at $35 from Eco Diva Beauty, a company that doesn’t “sacrifice style and design to be socially responsible.” The business sells products that are free of parabens, phthalates, sulfates, and synthetic fragrances, too.
3. Houndstooth Print Top in Black at People Tree
We love this sweater because the pattern is simple — it can go with almost anything. This classic sweater also is made from 100-percent fair-trade certified cotton. If you dig on the look of this print jersey top but don’t need another black sweater, it also comes in burgundy. Priced at $59.99. People Tree specializes in goods that are made sustainably and ethically. So, go ahead and shop without guilt!
4. Clarks Heels at ThredUp
Chunky heels are in this season, and that’s why we think it’s awesome that ThredUp, the store that’s known for re-selling pre-worn items in great condition, is selling these shoes. These heels are attractive and would look wonderful with any outfit. Priced at $33.99.
Yeah, we know you know about Etsy, but how could we not include this amazing shop? Etsy is filled with amazing pieces that are made by incredibly talented artisans. For example: this BFF friendship necklace. Get as many slices as you want and split with your friends, priced at $3.43 each from Etsy shop Fairy Fountain Gifts.
