Made To Matter – The Earth + Us

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Tom's of Maine. All opinions are 100% mine.

I confess, I steal my sons’ Tom’s of Maine® toothpaste. They have a Silly Strawberry flavored paste that is free of artificial dyes, fragrances, flavors and preservatives, so of course, I want to use a toothpaste like that too. It’s for kids, but it has fluoride and natural ingredients and all that great stuff, so what else would I use?

Now I found out that Tom’s of Maine® is introducing new products in the Target Made to Matter collection that are also free of artificial dyes, fragrances, flavors and preservatives, and are never tested on animals… specifically, Tom’s of Main Luminous White Toothpaste, Wicked Cool! Deodorant, and North Woods Antiperspirant. They are hitting shelves just in time for Earth Day, but really, need to be on our own shelves at home all the time.

Tom’s of Maine has been caring for communities, and the planet as a whole, for over 45 years, both with the quality of the products they offer as well as how they treat our Earth, so it’s a favorite brand in our home.

I picked up the Tom’s of Maine® North Woods Antiperspirant for hubby, because it’s their first natural antiperspirant made for men that provides all day odor and wetness protection without petrochemicals, artificial fragrances, or irritation… and since until now he never trusted the effectiveness of anything but his regular product, and needs wetness protection, he finally has a more natural antiperspirant that is effective. It’s made with recycled aluminum that leaves less of a carbon footprint, and it smells really good! Very sexy and masculine.

Other items in the Tom’s of Maine Made to Matter Collection are:

Luminous White a natural whitening toothpaste that is safe for enamel, and is both gluten free and paraben free. It also has fluoride (which I prefer- I just can’t use toothpaste without it anymore).
Wicked Cool! Deodorant their first natural deodorant made just for boys and girls. It provides 24-hour odor protection and is free of aluminum, parabens, and artificial fragrances. When your kids are ready for it, a safer and more environmentally-loving deodorant is here to help.

All of the Tom’s of Maine Made to Matter prodcuts are only available at Target. Maybe for Earth Day this year, you can pick up something that takes better care of you and the Earth. If you’re looking for a great way to be more environmentally friendly, why not start in your own home and medicine cabinet? My sons are learning about Earth Day in school, and here is a chance for us to talk to our children about taking better care of the environment, starting with what we have in our own home.
