A room-by-room tour of every clean swap I've made in our bathroom. Toothpaste, body wash, lotion, period care, the works. The full audit.
Your bathroom is where you absorb the most product on the most permeable skin. If you're going to clean up one room in your house, start here. Below is everything currently in mine.
Oral care.
Zebra Remineralizing Toothpaste
Hydroxyapatite-based, fluoride-free, the one I use daily. See my full oral health post for everything.
- Lumineux Whitening Toothpaste
- Himalaya Botanique (for kids)
- Tongue Scraper — a must have
- Lumineux Mouthwash
- Banyan Botanicals Oil Pulling Wash
- Lumineux Whitening Strips
- The Humble Co. Floss
Body care.
Primally Pure Tallow Body Butter
Whipped tallow, deeply moisturizing, ingredient list of three. One of those "why did I ever use anything else?" products.
- Iota Body Lotion — code allgoodwithaneesa
- Just Ingredients — code allgoodwithaneesa
- Rowe Casa Organics — code ANEESA
- Unscented Body Wash
Water filters.
Your skin and your hair drink your shower water. Filter Baby bathroom faucet filter is my single best bathroom swap. Code ANEESA.
Period care.
This is the room where conventional brands really get away with murder. Synthetic fibers, fragrance, dioxins, on the most absorbent tissue in your body.
- Tampon Tribe — organic cotton, no dyes
- The Honey Pot pads
"If you're going to invest in one room of your house, make it the bathroom. Skin absorbs. Mouth absorbs. Tampons absorb. Everything in here gets in."
Other bathroom items.
- Contact Lens Solution — one of the few clean options
- Nontoxic Toilet Paper — surprisingly soft, no PFAS
The bottom line.
You don't have to swap everything tomorrow. Start with toothpaste, body wash, and your water filter. Then deodorant. Then period care. Then lotion. Slow, intentional, sustainable.
