Product reviews from our experts…

I like to use shower caps and found this one great. Fits and holds really well, with a nice design. I will wash and use over and over.

Shower caps are a tricky one for the environment but I like that they have come up with a design which minimises the amount of plastic used and is well made to be reused for a very long time.

I love using a fabric shower cap to keep my hair dry in the shower and the Laminated Cotton Shop cap fitted perfectly. It’s lovely to know these caps are made in Melbourne from GOTS certified organic cotton.

I’m impressed by the zero waste production process where scraps are turned into products and that the company supports Impact for Women.

It’s really easy to use and I love it’s made in Australia. It also supports women leaving domestic violence situations. It’s great that the material is GOTS Certified cotton and the packaging is all conscious.
