As the holiday season approaches, it's astonishing to think that nearly £1.2 billion worth of Christmas gifts contribute to general waste each year. The alarming reality is that over 32 million Brits receive gifts they don't use, and a shocking 99% of Christmas cracker gifts find their way into the bottom of a bin bag by the end of the day.
IT'S THE MOST RUBBISH TIME OF THE YEAR!
Christmas holds a special place in my heart, but amidst the festive season, a sobering reality hits. This spike in impulsive consumerism results in a staggering 30% increase in overall waste, and a compelling question arises:
Shouldn't we strive for gifts that are not only thoughtful but also contribute to breaking the cycle of excessive waste? To support this mission, I've partnered with WUKA to emphasise why WUKA Period Pants are the best gift you could give this Christmas, and the importance of swapping pads and tampons for sustainable period care products.
has been at the forefront of menstrual innovation since its launch in 2017. As the UK's leading brand in reusable and leak-proof period pants, WUKA's extensive range of period care products offers a sustainable alternative to traditional pads and tampons.
Just one pair of WUKA pants prevents a staggering 200 pads and tampons from ending up in landfills! As a result, WUKA's commitment to providing a comfortable alternative to traditional tampons and pads has helped millions of individuals ditch disposables and embrace a more, comfortable, and stylish solution to sustainable period care.
Known for their incredibly comfortable, and leak-proof period underwear, WUKA are the leading brand for sustainable period care, and the following products are the perfect gifts that keep on giving long after the holiday season ends!
As someone who's accustomed to securing hot water bottles in place with a jumper, WUKA's innovative design makes this the best wearable hot water bottle around! With a length of 77cm, it's the longest hot water bottle I've ever used. It's super practical if you're suffering from backache, stomach cramps, or bloating at the same time.
This hands-free design features a tie that secures the bottle around your tummy or back, freeing you from the need to hold it in place. I especially love the front pocket on this wearable hot water bottle, as it serves as a hand warmer or a convenient pocket to keep your phone handy.
Plus, the super-soft fleece cover adds a touch of indulgence, providing extra comfort and warmth on those days when you need it most!
The WUKA Ultimate Lace High-Waist Period Pants redefine menstrual care, providing a complete alternative to tampons and pads. Designed for heavier days, these period pants hold at least 20ml of period flow - that's equivalent to four tampons' worth!
Their high-waisted design combines style with functionality, offering comfort and coverage during that time of the month. Not only are they super absorbent and comfortable, but the GOTS-certified organic cotton and nylon lace feel soft against the skin, and contribute to sustainable and eco-friendly practices.
These WUKA pants have become a staple in my wardrobe. So much so that I wear them even when I'm not on my period. They are, without a doubt, the best period underwear I've ever owned, and the design adds a touch of sensuality that makes me feel good in my skin.
