Let me introduce you to the wonderful women contributing to this month’s box and their inspirational stories of wanting to make the world a better place for us all!
Mrs Sparkle – Natural Cleaning Products
With over 10 years domestic cleaning experience at Mrs Sparkle, Nicky identified a need for natural and eco-friendly cleaning products at an affordable price for all.
“While using chemical cleaning products such as bleach, I often had side effects such as sore eyes, dry and cracked skin and wheezing, particularly in winter when windows are not open as much. Since changing to natural, eco friendly cleaning I can honestly say that these things have disappeared, along with the extreme tiredness that seem to hit me every afternoon. It really is better to go natural.“

Nicky developed her own brand of cleaning products, including kitchen, bathroom, and glass cleaners, and my personal favourite lemon, rosemary and cinnamon bark toilet cleaner.
The Silicone Straw Company – Alternative to Plastic and Paper
Seeing the impact of single use plastics, Charlotte came up with a simple mission – to create a convenient alternative to single-use plastic straws.
How could I use my 15 years of manufacturing experience to make being green that little bit easier?

While some companies have their eco-friendly products made in China, The Silicone Straw Company manufacture their straws here in the UK, ensuring sustainability for the environment and local economy.
ECOnsider – Organic, Eco-Friendly Skincare
Inspired by a calling to adopt a more sustainable lifestyle and a true passion for formulating skincare, Nicole set out on a quest to develop high-quality, natural products that didn’t compromise on performance to make the transition to sustainable skin/haircare an easy switch.
I wanted to go one step further and create ECOnsider as an all round experience not just for your skin but also your body & mind. So, I took my inspiration from nature and that is reflected in the ingredients, scent and colour scheme of my products.

ECOnsider offers a range of thoroughly-researched, handcrafted, high-quality, accredited, natural and organic products, made with minimal environmental impact.
Save My Knickers – Natural Stain Remover
Lucy is the creator of Save My Knickers – the period product we’ve all been waiting for! Starting in her kitchen in 2019 by experimenting with lots of pairs of knickers, she found a natural stain remover tough enough for blood stains.
Save My Knickers was born out of the frustration all women face – the fact that when you have your period, blood stains happen to the best of us.

Lucy worked in the NHS as a children’s physiotherapist, so starting her own business was completely new to her, but Lucy and Save My Knickers have gone on to win awards and be featured in many magazines.
Dandelion Weatherstone CIC – Vegan, Anti-Bacterial Post-Surgery Knickers
Meet Ash, the founder of Dandelion Weatherstone CIC. From personal experience of a traumatic birth experience, Ash realised there was no suitable underwear available to aid healing and reduce pain from surgeries such as C-sections.
I knew that I passionately wanted to not only financially help the neonatal team that saved my daughters life, but also provide funky anti-bacterial knickers.

£1 from every subscription box in March has been donated to sponsor a pair of knickers to a vulnerable person in need of vegan, antibacterial, C-section, post surgery, painful period knickers.
