A Greener Summer – Simple Swaps for a Sun-Soaked Season

A Greener Summer – Simple Swaps for a Sun-Soaked Season


Summer is here—and it’s the perfect time to embrace sunshine, slow living, and a few simple swaps that make your holiday habits lighter on the planet. 


Whether you’re travelling abroad or soaking up the sun close to home, here’s how to enjoy a greener summer, one thoughtful step at a time.

1. Pack Light, Pack Smart
Cut down on waste and weight with travel-sized products that do more with less. Look for plastic-free packaging and multi-tasking essentials. Our travel minis—Fit Pit Deodorant, Green Cream, Suncream and Toothpaste—are all under 100ml and plastic free.

2. Ditch the Disposables
Say no to single-use wherever you can. Bring a reusable water bottle, bamboo cutlery, and a cloth bag for your market hauls. It’s small changes like these that really add up, especially when we’re out and about more often in summer.

3. Choose Reef-Safe Sun Protection
Chemical sunscreens can harm coral reefs and marine life. By choosing mineral-based, reef-safe options like our Freedom Suncream, you're helping preserve the beauty of our oceans—while still protecting your skin.

4. Stay Local (or Travel Slower)
Consider staycations, road trips or taking the train instead of flying. Not only do you reduce your carbon footprint, but you often get to experience your surroundings more mindfully.

5. Support Independent & Ethical Brands
Every pound you spend is a vote for the kind of world you want. This summer, support brands that care—about ingredients, impact, and the bigger picture.

Closing Thought
A greener summer doesn’t mean giving up fun or comfort—it means making small swaps that have a big impact. From reef-safe suncream to reusable travel companions, your summer can be just as joyful—and far more sustainable.
