Low tox travel companions

Whether it’s a mini getaway or a big summer trip, it always pays to pack some wellness supplies. If you’re looking for the perfect ways to keep your face and body happy, and free from chemical load, these are the essentials to take with you…

Low tox sunscreen

No matter where you’re headed this summer, sunscreen is non-negotiable, especially in Australia! Which is why a low tox, natural sunscreen is vital to keep your skin safe from harmful UV rays. 

Non-toxic brands are gradually getting more common, but one well-rated brand we can vouch for is Kinfield Cloud Cover - a 100% mineral non-nano zinc that’s water-resistant and lightweight, not to mention safe for waterways. Other good quality options include Hello Sunshine, with SPF 40 and zero preservatives or parabens, and Mother SPF, a natural physical sunscreen that’s free from chemical UV filters, preservatives, fragrance and animal derivatives. Plus, it’s eco-friendly and comes in recyclable packaging.

Natural organic pillow 

If you’re headed to family homes or road trips on your eco travels this summer, one thing you’ll never regret packing is your own low tox pillow. The Natural Bedding Company pillows are ergonomically designed to ensure spinal support and proper rest, while using certified organic wool and organic latex, free from any synthetics, making it ideal for allergy sufferers or those with chemical sensitivities. The organic latex pillows are also hypoallergenic, hygienic and antibacterial, dust mite, mould and mildew resistant - all the things you want to maintain when you’re travelling. 

Our pillows also come in their own carry bag to make it super easy to take with you to your eco retreat, while the organic latex material means you can fold or roll the pillows into your luggage and they’ll bounce back good as new! 

Weleda Arnica

Want the ultimate low tox cure for inflammation, bumps, swelling, bruises, and general lymphatic support? Look no further. This homoeopathic oral spray supports the body’s natural healing response when it comes to injury, sprains and the effects of going too hard on a nature hike. Free from synthetic preservatives and made only with natural ingredients.

Olive Leaf Extract capsules

Grown and harvested in Queensland, these high strength capsules are fantastic immune boosters, and help relieve symptoms of coughs, colds, sore throats and more. Many low tox fans take them as a kind of insurance policy while on their eco travels, to keep their general wellbeing in good shape. 

The olive leaves themselves contain antioxidant properties, which may also help reduce free radicals formed in the body, and are completely naturally occurring ingredients - nothing nasty here!

Dr Bronner’s hand sanitiser

Living in the post-pandemic era means having a new fondness for hand sanitiser - and when you’re off on your eco travels, our low tox favourite is the organic lavender one from Dr Bronner’s. 

Perfect for all those times you want clean hands on the go, but don't have access to soap or more ethical options. Plus, it’s handbag size, contains 500+ sprays, and is certified fair trade to boot!

Don’t leave your low tox values at home

Thanks to progressive and thoughtful brands like these, you no longer have to choose between your everyday values and your holiday experiences. Pack your low tox priorities and relish in the best of both worlds on your next eco travels - your body and mind will thank you for it!
