How Customer Feedback Helped Us Reshape Our Products
At Bare Necessities, we’ve always believed that sustainability and convenience can go hand in hand. Every product we create is born out of thoughtful research, love for the planet, and most importantly, your feedback. Your suggestions and everyday experiences help us grow, improve, and stay true to our mission of making sustainability simple, practical, and enjoyable. Here’s how your voices have helped us revamp our products for the better.
Our Stir It Up: Handwash Powder Gets a Packaging Upgrade
When we first launched our Stir It Up Handwash Powder, the goal was to cut down water waste and plastic packaging by offering a powder-to-liquid format you could mix at home. It was a hit with conscious consumers who loved the plant-based ingredients and zero-waste design. But we heard your feedback loud and clear, you wanted the packaging to be even more durable yet completely home-compostable.
So, after months of research and testing, we upgraded the packaging film to one made from vegetable starch. It looks and feels like plastic, but it isn't!
-
It’s 100% home-compostable and breaks down within 180 days under natural conditions.
-
It leaves no microplastics or residue, safely returning to the soil.
This upgrade means you still get your favourite eco-friendly handwash, just in packaging that’s even kinder to the planet.
Our Solid Deodorants, Now With a Smart Magnetic Spatula!
Our solid deodorants have always been about feeling fresh naturally, from floral to musky to citrus notes, each variant is packed with ingredients like magnesium hydroxide, arrowroot powder, and nourishing oils. While customers loved the formula and the aluminum tins, we received one recurring piece of feedback:
“The wooden spatula is great, but it’s easy to misplace!”
So we got to work. Now, every deodorant comes with a wooden spatula fitted with a tiny magnet, allowing it to attach neatly to the aluminum tin. No more searching for your spatula, it stays right where you need it! This simple tweak makes your sustainable switch smoother and more convenient than ever.
Because at Bare Necessities, innovation is about natural ingredients, plastic-free packaging, and also rethinking small details that can make your daily routines easier while keeping waste out of landfills
