Low-er Tox Finds At Walgreens
Got a Walgreens nearby? Stop in! They have a few solid low tox options and some are on clearance right now - great for all my budgeting girlies!
Skincare
Pleasantly surprised to find sky organics line here. They had skincare, castor oil, random hair products, Epsom salt, bug spray and more. This is a pretty solid line overall.
Mighty patch
This brand has a cult following on social media and it was great seeing it in store! While I personally didn't loveee their pore strips, I know so many of you do!
SPF
Need an on the go in store spf? I would grab the unscented native one!
Teeth Whitening
Ditch the crest white strips and grab Lumineux instead. They were the same price in store.
Bug Spray & More SPF
Is Hello Bello marketed to babies? Yes. But it's literally just as effective for the entire family. I would grab these if you need something quickly!
Kids Medicine Essentials
Again, marketed toward baby but kids and adults can use these. So many Hylands, kindermed and boiron options. A couple Dr Talbots too.
I would personally grab Hylands before zarbees, but zarbees was also in this store and is a good option.
Shampoo and Wash
They lacked on shampoo and conditioner options! If it was me I would personally use honest for my self - but of course it's also a great option for babies and kids. They also had the native line in store, unscented would be my first choice with native but if not available I would still be fine using scented native in a pinch.
Oh and it's on clearance and super affordable right now!
Homeopathy
They have a pretty decent selection of boiron homeopathy - FSA eligible too! We love Oscilliococcinum for cold/flu like symptoms.
Simply Swaps
Do we want minimal processed, organic etc when available? Sure! But sometimes the *better* choice is limiting things like artificial sweeteners or dyes or fragrance. For instance -
there were only 2 ketchup options in store. If I needed something in a pinch I would grab the Heinz Simply version without HFCS over Heinz regular.
Feminine Care
The only *better* options at this store were L and honey pot (with herbs). I personally hate the herbal honey pot version, so I would grab L. But both were better choices.
Dish Soap
I would personally grab ecos before seventh generation. But I would use seventh generation if ecos wasn't available. Both on clearance.
Baby Wipes
The only lower tox in store option I found was honest. They were also on clearance!
Candy
Pleasantly surprised to find lilys candy at Walgreens. These are better ingredients than Reese's cups!
