Bathroom swaps, easiest first

1. Plastic toothbrush → bamboo toothbrush

Swap when your current brush is due for replacing.

Keep using your old one: Use the old one for cleaning grout or small tools.

Lower-plastic note: Most bamboo toothbrushes still have nylon bristles.

2. Liquid body wash → bar soap

Bars usually come in paper or no packaging.

Keep using your old one: Finish the bottles you have.

3. Bottled shampoo and conditioner → bars

Bars can take a few washes to get used to.

Keep using your old one: Finish your current bottles first.

4. Cotton buds with plastic stems → paper or bamboo stems, or a reusable option

A small swap that’s easy to keep up.

Keep using your old one: Use up what you have.

Lower-plastic note: Reusable options are often silicone, so lower-plastic rather than plastic-free.

5. Plastic floss → lower-plastic floss

Look for refillable containers.

Keep using your old one: Finish your current floss.

Lower-plastic note: Many “natural” flosses are still coated; check the material.
