Here are ecostore’s top five dishwashing hacks to help you boost your eco-credibility at home, every single day.
HACK 1: Take your empty ecostore bottles into store. If you’re worried about where your recycling goes, take your empty ecostore bottles into the Freeman’s Bay shop to make sure they are made into new ecostore bottles.
HACK 2: Refill, in-store or at home.
You can either buy ecostore’s large format bottles and refill your smaller bottles at home, or take your small ecostore bottles into their shop and they’ll do it for you.
HACK 3: Look for more thoughtful bubbles.
Choose a pH balanced formulation that says no to SLES, DEA, synthetic dyes or artificial perfumes. While it won’t make doing the dishes more fun (sorry), it will be kinder to your skin, your home and your world.
HACK 4: Use only what you need.
One of the biggest sustainable switch-ups you can make is to consciously consume less. Ecostore recommends using just 8ml of their Dish Liquid for a sinkful of sparkling dishes.
HACK 5: Dishes away, don’t delay.
When food hasn’t welded itself onto your pots and plates, it can be lifted off more easily with less dishwashing liquid. If you must wait, soak.
