STOCK UP ON ECO-FRIENDLY CLEANING GOODIES

Consciously Clean has everything you need for your home and body.

We are so lucky to live in the amazing part of the world that is the Gold Coast. You may have moved here, stayed, or returned because of the stunning beaches, beautiful hinterland or the strong sense of community. And we love that Gold Coast locals are always looking at ways to take care of our surrounding environment and supporting local businesses in any way they can. Making eco-friendly cleaning particularly easy is Consciously Clean.

The Tugun neighbourhood store was recently opened by owner Kelli to provide the community with a place to help locals’ reduce their household waste, particularly one-use plastic waste, created by all the everyday products every household uses.

In the past, our only option to purchase products to clean our homes, kids, pets and ourselves was to take another plastic bottle off the supermarket shelf. But Consciously Clean provides an alternative, the boutique store allows you to purchase all your cleaning and personal care products in a bulk refill form.

You are encouraged to bring your own containers and jars from home or purchase bottles in store that you can return to refill (with a clear conscience) over and over again. No more adding to that nasty plastic waste pile that is damaging our environment! Not only can you consistently refill your favourite household products which reduces waste and ultimately landfill, the products Consciously Clean stock are plant based, toxic free, natural products, helping reduce the amount of toxic chemicals used around your home. Also, when you purchase from Consciously Clean, you are supporting Australian made products from small businesses filled with clever people, creating terrific products! In addition to the refill lines, you’ll find so many beautiful products that support a waste free life, think compostable cloths, body brushes, safety razors, pottery keep cups, reusable baking mats, deodorants, shampoo, conditioner, body bars, the list well and truly goes on.

So if you’re in the market for some quality cleaning products for your home and yourself (and we know who you are) head down to Consciously Clean for some genuine service while doing your bit for the environment and the local community by purchasing some ecofriendly products. Happy planet saving!

Do your bit for the environment!

Most people associate Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary with tourism, childhood memories and of course Rainbow lorikeets, but there is a whole lot more to this iconic destination.

Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary has come a long way in 75 years, but the main goal remains the same - wildlife protection and conservation.

The Sanctuary currently has more than 15 Conservation projects underway, saving species like Koalas, Eastern Bristlebirds and Kroombit Tinkerfrogs from the brink of extinction.
