Female Founders + The products we love
Morgan Finley: Viren Apothecary
"Every other "green" cleaner on the market seems to contain palm-derived surfactants (contributing to deforestation of tropical rain forests, further threatening extremely endangered species) or has sketchy ingredient transparency. Our product formulas were born from a personal refusal to compromise between eco-friendly ingredients, fine fragrances & sparkling surfaces."
Samira Far: No. 2
"In 2018 I was looking for my next project and product to improve on. I realized that the toilet paper industry is not only dated and dusty, literally, but also major brands are only competing on softness factor. What about reliability, crumble, additive free paper, or plastic free packaging?"
Elaina + Alysia Bright: Skin Scholars
"We arise from from a very proud and strong line of Indigenous Medicine Women, Midwives, and Healers. We embody our indigenous traditions and principles that shaped who we are. We've taken the knowledge that has been passed down to us from over 7 generations of herbalist and infused it into earth friendly sustainable products that people can feel good about using."

Let customers speak for us
from 220 reviewsGlad I tried them and will return for more.
Great for home, travel, and camping! One side is super soft and could almost be a dust cloth, the other feels more like your average cotton cloth. My fiance and I really liked them for our recent camping trip and just carrying around instead of tissues/paper towels. Plus as always - GLTC provides great customer service!

UNpaper Towels
excellent
Switching to this razor was not nearly as terrifying as I had built it up to be. I'm actually getting a better/closer shave than I was previously and would absolutely recommend
Katie
Safety Razor
Easy peasy
I put the toilet bomb in before I left for work in the morning. I didn't think about it again until I noticed how clean the toilet was in the evening. I didn't use a brush to get under the rim or anything, but I could have.

Toilet Bowl Bomb
Combo/Sensitive skin's dream
This product is everything I could ask for in a face wash, it's luxurious and creamy in texture (not exactly foaming.) My skin feels clean, not stripped; and has improved in hydration and acne. I also love that it supports bees! (local, wildcrafted honey)

Face Wash
Wow
A natural deodorant that works?! What?! And I love the packaging. Made me realize how much I dislike typical plastic deo sticks. Really excellent product!

Great product
Used daily by a teenager (can use each more than once before washing). Work great. Love that they come in black!

Fresh Reset Linen + Upholstery Spray
Awesome
My all time favorite bar shampoo! No weird residue and it lathers nicely. No itchy scalp or build up either.

Salon Quality Shampoo + Conditioner Bar
Life saver!
Omg!! Have only had this a couple days and has saved several of my nonstick pans! I thought I was going to have to buy a whole new set but they are good as new! Easy to use and gentle but effective! Thank you!

Coconut Scourer
The BEST Smell & Very Effective
I couldn’t ask for more, the smell is amazing. Very effective, like on that ring that’s always there with hard water!

Toilet Bowl Bomb
Exceeds Expectations
This sponge has exceeded expectations. Cleans as good as any sponge I've owned, but seems to stay cleaner than your traditional sponge. I rinse it out after a heavy load of dishes and it looks brand new still. Has held up to heavy scrubbing and even though it's white one one side has not stained from even the most colorful and greasy items. Looking forward to getting more to give as gifts!

Washable Sponge
Great little bottle for cleaners or plant mister
This bottle does a good job as a plant mister which is what I bought it for. You could also use it for homemade cleaners or refill it in the shop. Nice quality; I might put a couple of stickers on it to make it fun.
