This eco-friendly cleaning brand helped me cut down on plastic waste I suffer from eczema, so a good pair of rubber gloves is an essential piece of cleaning kit for me, as exposure to hot water and cleaning products dries out my skin.
Admittedly, this means I got through them faster than typical black bin bags, but as the Seep bags are biodegradable, I’d rather do this than contribute further to the problem of plastic build-up in landfill sites.
Having experimented with different gloves at various price points, I’m not averse to paying more for gloves if they protect my hands, keep them at a comfortable temperature, and have a nice texture.
These bags from Seep felt reassuringly thick, however, as I overfilled one during initial testing, the bag ripped as I tried to lift it out of the bin.
Eczema flare-ups depend on a variety of factors, but I do feel like these gloves have worked well at protecting my skin.
