EcoTools Extends a Helping Hand to the Planet and Gets You Squeaky Clean with Their $3 Bath & Shower Gloves

November 16th, 2011 by Karen 38 Comments

5 Things That Give Me a Strange Sense of Satisfaction

  1. Taking off my bra after a really long day
  2. Flossing the HECK out of my teeth
  3. Cleaning my belly button with a Q-tip
  4. Clipping my toe nails (it’s even better if they’re really long)
  5. Vigorously exfoliating with these shower gloves

I just picked up this cute new pair by EcoTools ($3). It’s made from 65% recycled materials, which I thought was pretty cool. Probably puts a lot of old plastic soda bottles, yogurt cups and tubs of margarine to good use.

The gloves feel soft and pliable, yet they’re still coarse and dense enough to give my bod a good scrubbing.

I got them in green because they matched my bath towels (nerd!), but they also come in brown and blue. 🙂



Oh, and I also like that EcoTools donates 1% of their annual revenue to environmental causes.

PRICE: $3
AVAILABILITY: Available now at Target stores (they don’t appear to be sold online)
MAKEUP AND BEAUTY BLOG RATING: A+

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

      Me too! I can’t stand when they get too long. I can feel them hitting up against the tops of my shoes. Drives me nuts!

      I didn’t know that, either, Rads. Very respectable. Even though it’s 1%, at least it’s something. 🙂

      Hehe, and Karen, I would SO get those gloves to because they also match my green towels. Not nerdy at all. 😉 We just like everything to go with each other. 😀

        Might as well, right swatch? Now everything in the bathroom matches. Towels, bath mat, exfoliating gloves…

    I have not tried shower gloves or bath mitts before. I just depend on body scrubs! Haha! That’s totally different. But may be I should get a pair, as the movement of this on the body will stimulate the circulation.

      Try your favorite scrub with a pair of gloves! They take exfoliating to the next level.

    I have these. They are great but just a bit too big for my wee hands so I wish that they were a bit smaller.

    Totally with you on the bra thing!! Also – peeling sunburns (gross, I know) and unbuttoning one’s skinny jeans in the car on the way home from a particularly large meal. 🙂

    taking a bra off at the end of a long day is THE BEST!

    My skin’s a little too sensitive this time of year for that kind of thing, but they look good! I love EcoTools.

    I really like EcoTool brushes- great quality and affordable. I guess I never noticed that they make stuff beside brushes.

    I’ll definitely be picking these up in blue (also to match my towels, haha).

    I share your sentiments with #1 so much, especially if the bra is a push-up. I told my SO to imagine if his boxers had underwire….needless to say he was kinda weirded out lol.
