The Great Diaper Debate:

Americans throw away 570 diapers per second, 49 million diapers per day, and spend upwards of $2,000 in diapers per child. What's more, these diapers will still be in landfills 300 years from now. Consider using, even for part of the time, reusable cloth or biodegradable diapers.

Why It's Good:

The gorgeous raw silk wrapping makes this soap duo the perfect little way to eco-chic your hand sink. Unwrap it and you'll love it just as much—babassu oil, the soap's key ingredient, is a light, non-greasy moisturizer, which is good for both dry and oily skin types.

Why It's Green:

This mild soap is made from sustainable and organic ingredients (babassu oil and honey) by a fair labor women's coop in Brazil.

How to Find A Better Bar

Bar soaps can be so blah—but not these from Uhma Nagri. Hand-wrapped in gorgeous raw silk, this set, made by a women's cooperative in Brazil, is so pretty you'll be tempted to leave it unopened in your bath to impress guests, but don't—at least not for long. The mild, botanically scented soaps inside are a real treat for your skin (both your face and your hands). Made from organic babassu oil, a light non-greasy oil that's extracted from the nuts of the babassu tree, the soap is great for both dry and oily skin types. It cleans and moisturizes as any soap should, but it also soothes itchy and inflamed skin (hello winter!). There's no worry that the soap will run out since the babassu tree grows fast and wild in the Amazon, but we suggest you consider stocking up—it makes a great hostess and holiday gift, and you probably need a lot of those about now.
