I have been asked time and again to offer a "shop" page, so while I work on that I figured I would provide the next best thing -- a catalog of some of my favourite natural, ethical, organic, vegan, and eco friendly brands and retailers so you can find them all in one place!
Of course there are businesses I adore that are not on this list, but I had to limit myself somewhat so this wasn't too overwhelming. These picks are from ranges I have tried extensively and have been impressed with consistently, have worked with several times and trust fully, or just can't be without. If you want to see more brands I love, just browse The ecoLogical. You'll be spoiled for choice!
And don't worry - a shop will be coming that will feature all my ride or die products! Until then, enjoy xx
