“With a 6 person family and two showers, this product was a must x 2.
Easy to monitor when shampoo or conditioner runs low as the refill pouches are transparent.
Once I’ve squeezed the last drop out, I’ll order a couple of new refills for the cupboard.”
“I really love this shampoo and conditioner. They have a natural, sweet, and clean smell. The shampoo makes my hair feel super clean and then the combo is finished perfectly with the silky conditioner. I think the products are a bit oily for my hair (I do have oily hair) but I don't mind this too much because I love using recycled plastics from the OBL and no SUP also. One minor thing, and I believe it's because the consistency of the conditioner is thicker than the shampoo, once the bottle is no longer completely full it becomes difficult to squeeze the bottle to get the product out with one hand in the shower (since the bottle needs to be picked up and turned upside down to be used). I have found a solution where I can squeeze it with two hands onto one of my knees in the shower and then gently slide it off into my hand to pop it into my hair, lol! The bottles might be a more accessible product if they had a pump top like your body lotion or hand wash, maybe you could sell them separately if we wanted to change the lid on our already existing bottles? Bonus: I'd love to send you my old lids back with my pouches for recycling. Overall, I am really happy with my shampoo and conditioner!”
Hey there Alex,
Thank you so much for your order, support and for taking the time to provide us with your valuable feedback.
We hear you! Despite all our pre-production squeezability testing to achieve the final, approved level of squeeziness, our production bottles were made on the denser side of perfect. For more information on the complexities of producing with OBL, check out this video:

We’re actively working on making our bottles more easy-squeezy for future production runs. In the meantime, we’ve found that standing our bottle upside down on the cap helps. We designed the caps extra wide for this purpose 👌🏼
Although, we totally hear you on the pumps as preferred option! We've spent months and months and months testing and trialing a whole bunch of different pump options that would be able to last "forever". The reality is that because pumps have moving parts they will always eventually break down and stop working. 👎🏼
The current "disc cap" option that we have on our Shampoo and Conditioner should in theory be able to last "forever" because it doesn't have any springs or moving mechanisms which means it's a much better option for the planet 🌏
We’ve now learnt since our first batch of do-goodies were released, that designing a forever pump top is a very unique industrial design challenge (since 99.99% of all pump tops on the planet get used with one single-use bottle and then thrown away). And that this is actually an Industry-wide issue that we are trying to (and will) tackle! 👊🏼
We put lots of time and effort into thinking about the longer-term lifecycle and post-life lifecycle of our products and try to make the best decision for the planet with each of our products. Hope that helps explain why we limit the use of a pump for some of our products where it makes sense going forward.
But do keep in mind, we offer a 30-Day Money Back Guarantee on all of our plastic-busting products if you wanted to use a Forever Bottle that is a better fit for your home sweet home ❤️
Hope this helps!

“I run an accommodation business and thought it was time to ditch the single use small bottles that I have been providing until now. The bottles look great, delightful colours and perfect size. My guests have been using the products and giving great feedback. I now provide Zero dishwashing liquid, hand wash, toilet cleaner, shampoo and conditioner!”
“Finally a company addressing the single use plastic issue in the beauty industry, best news ever! A wonderful, effective, sweet smelling set - the only downside is the nozzle on the refill pouches is rather difficult to squeeze the product from, I found myself having to use a bit of force.”
“Never had a no-waste shampoo and conditioner smell so good. Only used a couple of times, so can't tell yet what it will do to my hair, but has a nice lather and smooths the hair.”
