Featuring conscious #ProductsWeLove, we hope to help you discover other companies that are creating sustainable products, giving back and making a difference.
Music festivals bring people from all around the world together for a weekend of fun, disconnected from the "real world" and immersed in a joyful dancing bliss. Festival lovers will travel across countries to see their favorite artists perform together and they have a list of must-haves to bring along. We've found the perfect eco-friendly festival essentials to really up their game.

One thing that is synonymous with music festivals is glitter! But what happens after the festival ends?

They offer a variety of color blends, all made from plant cellulose. The Sparkle Necklace is 100% recycled cotton and keeps your eco-friendly glitter close to your heart in a glass jar sealed with a cork.

Powertraveller Solar Adventurer Portable Charger - $89
While phone service is never the best at music festivals, our phones have now replaced our cameras, maps, alarm clocks and pretty much everything else at this point. It's crucial to have a backup power source, so why not harness some solar power while camping? This external charger gives you the option to either charge via solar power or using the built-in battery at night. It can charge phones, speakers, headlamps, GPS and much more!

Dot Menstrual Cup - $34
Sometimes timing doesn't quite work out and you're stuck on your period during the festival weekend. Not the end of the world, but if you've ever had to change a pad or tampon in a porta-potty on Day 3 of a festival, this is for you! Dot menstrual cups can be worn for up to 12 hours, which means more time dancing and less time waiting in the bathroom lines. They are made of medical-grade silicone and will replace single-use menstrual products for up to 10 years! Also, for every Dot cup purchase made another Dot cup is donated to a girl in need.
