Everything you need to level up your bathroom routine!
Low-waste and low-tox
This kit is perfect for all genders.
We even take back your used razor blades for repurposing via the Blade Take Back Program. -
Unscrew the head of the razor from the handle.
Place the blade between the two top plates, holding by the blunt edges.
Screw the handle back on and shave away!
Replace the blade when it goes blunt. On average this is every fifth shave, less for thick hair, and more for fine hair.
Rinse the Razor thoroughly after each use. Clean away soap and hair, then let your Safety Razor dry out of the shower.
Please refer to this page for more detailed instructions.
Stick out your tongue as far as you can and hold the tongue cleaner with either one or two hands.
Place your Tongue Cleaner toward the back of your tongue just before your bigger taste buds.
Press the scraper on your tongue and move it toward the front of your tongue while applying pressure.
Run the Tongue Cleaner under warm water to clear any debris and bacteria from the device.
Repeat steps 2 to 4 several more times until your tongue is clean. As needed, adjust your Tongue Cleaner placement and the pressure you apply to it to prevent a gag reflex.
Spit out any excess saliva that may have built up during the tongue scraping and rinse your mouth.
Clean the Tongue Cleaner under running water and store it for the next use. You can scrape your tongue once or twice a day.
Chew Tab
Wet brush and brush like normal
Rinse and Repeat - do not eat.
Keep Tabs in a dry place after opening. Store in an air tight jar.
For Ages 6+, Keep out of reach of small children.

Safety Razor: The Safety Razor is made from certified Stainless Steel Type 304 20% and Zinc Alloy 80%.
Razor Blades: The Safety Razor Blades are certified 100% Stainless Steel and are hyper-recyclable. Please note that these often cannot be recycled curbside because they are small and sharp; please see the details about our Blade Take Back Program for recycling your used Razor Blades in New Zealand.
Tongue Cleaner: Food-grade Stainless Steel type 304.
Dent Tabs: INGREDIENTS: Microcrystalline cellulose (polishing agent), sodium bicarbonate, citric acid, silica, sodium lauroyl glutamate, magnesium stearate, natural mint aroma, menthol, stevia, xanthan gum, sodium fluoride (in tablets containing fluoride only), eugenol (a natural part of menthol mint aroma).
DENTtabs has 1400ppm of fluoride, which meets the acceptable dental health range. DENTabs have a 30 RDA (Relative Dentin Abrasivity), unlike the 40-60 standard of regular toothpaste. A low abrasion rate is better for long-term oral health.

Safety Razor- Store your Razor safely out of the shower between uses, and take care not to drop your Razor. Consider adding a Razor Stand to your order for safe storage. There are detailed instructions set out HERE in the blog, and you can watch the video above to see how you can easily put the pieces of the Safety Razor together and change the Razor Blades.
Tongue Cleaner - To Clean: Use warm water and soap, dry, and store in a clean, dry area. Sterilise regularly with boiling water, at least matching the frequency with which you change your toothbrush.
Care: Your Tongue Cleaner is pretty low maintenance and is made from one single piece of stainless steel with no connections or moving parts that can break. Clean it regularly and you’ll be fine.
End-Of-Life: You Tongue Cleaner will last years upon years. If you do need an end-of-life solution, stainless steel is readily recycled with a buoyant market for recycled content. Please check the guidelines of your local area or use a scrap metal service.
Dent Tabs - Storage: It is very important to store your eco toothpaste tablets in an airtight container after opening the pack. Bathrooms can be moist, humid places and your tooth tablets could go soft and lose their minty flavour. An upcycled glass jar is perfect for this.
End of Life: Please home or commercial compost the packaging. If no compost is available, please landfill.

Thre are so many benefits that come from using a Safety Razor! Here are our top five:
- Cost-effective: Safety razors are more economical in the long run than disposable razors, as you only need to replace the blades, which are relatively inexpensive.
- Environmentally friendly: They produce less waste since the only part you discard is the blade, which can be recycled.
- Close shave: Safety razors provide a close shave, reducing the need for multiple passes over the same area, which can lead to irritation.
- Less irritation: The single blade design reduces friction on the skin, resulting in less irritation and razor burn compared to multi-blade razors.
- Control and precision: Safety razors offer better control and precision, allowing you to navigate around curves and contours with ease, resulting in a smoother shave.

Tooth tablets are solid, compacted forms of toothpaste that come in small, dissolvable tablets. They offer a convenient, mess-free alternative to traditional toothpaste tubes and are eco-friendly due to their reduced packaging and transportation footprint. They contain similar cleansing and oral hygiene ingredients as traditional toothpaste.
