🍂Our Autumn Self-Care Guide 🍂

Written By Emily Atkinson - October 23 2020

Now that the cooler and shorter days of Autumn have set in, it’s important to set some time for you, and your health! Self-care is a great way to de-stress and feel more relaxed, so here are 5 ways to take care of yourself:

Spend Time In Nature
If you’re able to, try to get outside and in the fresh air. Even just 30 minutes of being in greenery can make you feel better! Whilst the days of summer picnics might be over, you could always stop at a cafe and get a hot chocolate on the way home...

Have A Pampering Night
Take a bath, light a candle and take care of yourself. You could do a face mask or whiten your teeth with our Activated Charcoal Powder - anything that is relaxing and can make you feel more confident!

Treat Yourself Or A Loved One 
You deserve it! If there’s nothing that you need, you could always give a loved one something to get them started on their eco-friendly journey. We think that our Recyclable Brush Heads and Toothpaste Tablets make a great gift…

Cook A Nurturing Meal
Why not spend a cosy night in and cook or order your favourite meal? It’s an easy way to put a smile on your face and you get a great dinner out of it, win win!
What will you be doing this month to take care of yourself? We’d love to know!

Drink A Lot Of Coffee? Don't Let It Stain Your Smile🦷

Written By Emily Atkinson - October 17 2020

Here at Live Coco, we are big believers in ethical, healthy smiles and coffee! Unfortunately, coffee does have a tendency to stain our teeth, particularly after years of drinking but this can easily be remedied with taking really good care of those gnashers and giving them a little extra TLC every couple of weeks.
 
We've been working hard to create products which are kind to you and the world in the past few years and are really happy with our progress. Check out some of our favourite products for perfectly, healthy teeth below: 

Starting with our Recyclable Toothbrush Heads that are totally recyclable and won’t end up in landfill. Even the bristles can be recycled, just send them back to us. We recommend a really great clean, particularly after drinking coffee as this will help remove any of the coffee debris and reduce the chance of staining.
To ensure that you don't get a build up of coffee between your teeth which culminates in yellowing try our Natural Eco Floss which is recyclable and natural! This will help to remove any additional particles that may be lurking between the cracks. They also help to reduce plastic and bathroom waste. 
We recommend trying out our Activated Charcoal Natural Teeth Whitener every couple of weeks to help lift any staining, naturally using the power of charcoal made from coconuts!
So...what are you waiting for? Make a swap today and let’s work together to reduce our impact!

Will You Be Joining Unblocktober?

Written By Emily Atkinson - October 07 2020

This month, we’re committing to reducing the amount of plastic entering our rivers, seas and waters by making small changes to our day to day lives and being mindful of how we dispose of things.  Unblocktober is the world’s first month-long national campaign and awareness month to improve the health of our drains, sewers, watercourses and seas - driven completely by the British public. Approximately 8 million tonnes of plastic find their way into our waterways every year! This is a lot of plastic, but we can all do our bit and help to reduce that number.
 
Scroll to find out more!
 
Lots of common plastic items are flushed down the drain, one of which is dental floss!
If you floss, why not switch to a plastic-free version? Ours is vegan, cruelty-free and works exactly like standard floss, except it’s eco-friendly. 
 
Do you know what fatbergs are? This is the accumulation of oil, grease, plastic and food waste which are causing huge blockages in drains and sewers, causing them to work less effectively than they should eventually even potentially spilling into our rivers and seas - into which approximately 8 million pieces of plastic find their way every day.
Did you know that most wet wipes are over 90% plastic and that they take over 500 years to break down? It’s almost as bad as putting a plastic bag down the toilet! The plastics that get flushed can impact marine life, the water pollution levels and our sewage systems. Choose something more sustainable such as a flannel or cloth which can be reused time and time again. 
 
So, will you be joining us for Unblocktober 2020? 
You can find a full list of items to avoid flushing here.
