Lifelong created a range of powdered personal care products that need to be activated with water at the time of use. The waterless body wash, shampoo and hand soaps are sold in compact pouches that are plastic-free and helpful for reducing weight and waste. As such, the products are small and light enough to be delivered directly to consumers' letterboxes.
When it comes to preparing the products, the products are meant to be mixed with water and left overnight to thicken. The products can be stored in Lifelong's branded reusable and refillable jar dispensers. The brand offers several starter kits depending on a customer's needs, including The Ultimate Starter Kit, the Shampoo Starter Kit and the Body Wash Starter Kit, all of which can be replenished as needed with refills.
