Plastic Who? Switch to sustainable packaging!
Hey , there
With Newesome, we plan to be that one corner of the internet where people are discover, explore and know more about the brands and their products. In line with this, last week we launched “ Discovery Box " - a Box which will help the users try trials of the products before they buy the full-sized product.
We did an overwhelming response with our 1st edition of the box and we are sold out on them.
You can try the products in this box here.
Do let us know if you get a chance a try out these amazing products, we would love to hear your feedback. Also, keep an eye as we are soon launching with the 2nd edition of these cuties.

Ever been disappointed when you buy an amazing product with the tag ‘Sustainable’ only to end up receiving it wrapped in plastic? We get you! While most of the brands would agree that it is extremely difficult and costly to switch to a 100% sustainable packaging, we believe it’s the thought that matters. Switching to a no-plastic policy makes the consumers of today believe that the brand cares about the people and the environment.
Sustainability does not just mean use of eco-friendly materials but considering factors like reusability, recyclability, ecological impact, cost effectiveness, etc. While fast fashion might seem trending, it is rarely sustainable and as a gen-z you have to decide which direction you want go in! Just keep in mind sustainability is like long term happiness- difficult to achieve but here to stay. “A Good product is a sustainable product.”
For the smart and caring generation - these brands will make you believe that even one step towards sustainable products and packaging can make a huge difference!
