Meliora Plastic-Free Lemon Dish Soap Bar

🏢 Meliora Lemon Dish Soap Bar – a concentrated, plastic-free bar that replaces bottled liquid detergent, with every ingredient named.

🌿 Plant-based & naturally derived

  • Vegetable soap – traditional soap made from:
    • Sodium cocoate – coconut oil turned into soap.
    • Sodium sunflowerate – sunflower oil turned into soap.
    • Glycerin – a natural by-product of soap-making that’s gentle on hands.
    • Water – used to make the soap.
    • Organic coconut oil and organic sunflower seed oil – the plant bases of the bar.
  • Organic lemon peel oil – real citrus oil for a fresh scent, not a synthetic fragrance.

✅ Every single ingredient is water or plant-derived – zero lab-made synthetics, no preservatives, no dyes, no palm oil.

♻️ Packaging: 100% plastic-free bar with paperboard packaging. MADE SAFE certified and vegan.

🌼 Hippiekit Take: Meliora publishes its complete formula – transparency this good deserves a spot at every kitchen sink.

Fab Tab Plastic-Free Dishwasher Detergent Tablets

FabTab Dishwasher Detergent Tablets – fragrance-free tablets with a fully published 13-ingredient formula, each with its function explained.

🌿 Plant-based & naturally derived

  • Citric acid – made by fermenting plant sugars; dissolves mineral deposits and stains.
  • Sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) – a natural mineral that gently scrubs and deodorizes.
  • Sodium carbonate (washing soda) – a natural mineral that softens water.
  • Hydrated silica – a mineral that keeps the tablets from clumping.
  • Sodium coco-sulfate – a cleaning agent made from coconut oil; a milder alternative to conventional sulfates.
  • Disodium cocoyl glutamate – a gentle surfactant from coconut oil and a plant amino acid.
  • Protease, alpha-amylase & lipase – three enzymes brewed by fermentation that break down protein, starch, and grease on your dishes.

⚠️ Lab-made

  • Sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate – a synthetic surfactant that provides much of the grease-cutting power. Effective, but petroleum-derived – the main trade-off in this formula.
  • Sodium hexametaphosphate – a lab-made water softener that prevents spots in hard water.
  • Sodium benzoate & potassium sorbate – gentle preservatives used in tiny amounts to keep the tablets shelf-stable; the same ones commonly used in food.

✅ Nine of the thirteen ingredients are plant- or mineral-derived (including three fermentation enzymes); four are lab-made, used in small amounts. Note: each tablet comes in a water-soluble film wrapper that dissolves in the wash – the brand markets the product as 100% plastic-free, though the film material isn’t named in its ingredient table.

♻️ Packaging: Plastic-free resealable pouch; free of chlorine, phosphates, and artificial fragrances.

🌼 Hippiekit Take: FabTab publishes its complete ingredient list with each ingredient’s job – exactly the transparency we ask of every brand.

🧴 Dirty Labs – Enzyme-Powered & Planet-Safe

🧴 Dirty Labs Bio Enzyme Laundry Detergent (Free & Clear) – a hyper-concentrated liquid (80 loads) in an infinitely recyclable aluminum bottle, with every ingredient published down to its CAS number.

🌿 Plant-based & naturally derived

  • Water – the liquid base.
  • Lauryl glucoside – a gentle cleaner made from coconut oil and plant sugar.
  • Caprylyl/capryl glucoside – another sugar-and-coconut surfactant that lifts everyday grime.
  • Capryloyl/caproyl methyl glucamide – a biobased surfactant from coconut and corn sugar.
  • Coconut fatty acid – from coconut oil; helps control suds and condition fabrics.
  • Glycerine – a plant-derived moisture-keeper that stabilizes the formula.
  • Sodium citrate – the salt of plant-fermented citric acid; softens hard water.
  • Protease, alpha-amylase, cellulase, mannanase & pectate lyase – five enzymes brewed by fermentation, each targeting a different stain type (protein, starch, fuzz, gums, and fruit/plant stains).

⚠️ Lab-made

  • Potassium hydroxide & sodium hydroxide – mineral-derived pH balancers used in tiny amounts and essentially consumed as the formula is made.
  • Propanediol & propylene glycol – lab-made solvents that keep the enzymes stable and active in liquid form.

✅ Twelve of the sixteen ingredients are water, plant-derived, or fermentation enzymes; four are lab-made helpers used in small amounts. 97% USDA Certified Biobased overall.

♻️ Packaging: Infinitely recyclable aluminum bottle – zero plastic jug. Free of sulfates, dyes, parabens, and chlorine bleach.

🌼 Hippiekit Take: Dirty Labs publishes its complete formula with CAS registry numbers – the gold standard of ingredient disclosure, and we applaud it.
