Expanding Dental Floss In a Refillable Dispenser + Refill

Evan Orensten — Tue, 30 Jan 2024 17:25:46 +0000

We’ve tried just about every brand of all-natural floss, packaged in paper or glass, and have not yet found a product that does the job. And though there are several great innovations in paper and glass packaging, we found that paper didn’t wear well in our travel kit. Then we tried Davids, and while it’s not perfectly eco-friendly it performs very well and makes every effort with currently available materials. It starts with the floss, which is made with polyester from recycled water bottles. The rest of the few ingredients include vegan wax, coco butter and essential mint oils. Importantly, the expanding floss performs extremely well, and in our tests rarely breaks (the main issue with all natural fiber options). Then there’s the plastic case, which is lightweight, well-engineered and easily refilled. If you aren’t familiar with the brand’s toothpaste, which comes in aluminum tubes, it’s also our top pick.

If you’ve had the pleasure of staying at a COMO Shambhala resort you likely have experienced their all-natural insect repellant, which is diffused throughout their properties. A mix of peppermint, eucalyptus and citronella essential oils, we’ve found it to be very effective natural body spray with a scent that doesn’t make you smell like a citronella candle.

Body Scan Scale

Recent Withings scales have consistently integrated professional level tech into home devices, and when they debuted the Body Scan scale at CES in 2022 we were excited for it to launch. It’s finally available and our review unit has impressed, providing even more reliable data and body composition analysis because of its hand held retractable bar, which provides more specific and more detailed measurements, all of which are stored in your profile for comprehensive, easy review.

First Fix Stress Response Serum

Made by hand in a lab on a farm an hour outside of London, founder and skin care specialist Annee de Mamiel marries the best of Western science and Eastern medicine to create a range of skin care products focused on treating the impact of stress. There are many products we’re fond of, but the First Fix Stress Response Serum is a great place to start your discovery of this unique brand. The serum, 13 years in the making, considers both the causes and the effects of stress on your facial skin, with proprietary natural ingredients like Neurophroline, an extract from wild indigo. A combination of prebiotics, hyaluronic acid, oils and other proven ingredients, it packs a lot into a single pump’s worth that your skin will thank you for. Yes, it’s expensive—an unfortunate result of using all-natural ingredients alongside specialty product volumes—but we haven’t tried anything we’ve liked more.

On Earth Momentarily (OEM) creates “better tools for care” and sees that the best ones come from a blend of design, quality and sustainability with thoughtfulness for all the senses. Their new exfoliating hand wash is a perfect example—milled pumice and Japanese Hinoki oil define the feel and scent while the mirrored aluminum bottle is a delight to look at. The calm-yet-revitalizing Hinoki scent lingers gently on the skin after washing and drying.

New Plus

Puffco was a pioneer in the cannabis space ten years ago by bringing design and innovation to an accessory category that was otherwise antiquated and at times even sketchy. The Plus was their first device for dabbing that elevated the experience aesthetics and consistency. The New Plus reinvents the original with a built-in Dart tool that simplifies adding concentrate to the ceramic chamber and a 510 battery that can be used for standard concentrate cartridges as well. Available in Onyx and Pear colorways.

Luxurious but lightweight, this limited edition natural body oil from Susanne Kaufmann and Byredo is named for Kaufmann’s home of Bregenzerwald in Vorarlberg, Austria and inspired by the Austrian Alps. Refreshing and grounding, the fragrance is woody, sharp and green. It contains notes of juniper berries, elemi, galbanum, green jasmine, pink sugar and fig cream. Suitable for all skin types, this nourishing and moisturizing oil echoes both the opulence and rawness of nature.

Each application lasts eight hours, and is a game changer for being in crowded spaces.
