So about a week ago I did something that I usually never do: I clicked on a FaceBook advertisement. I usually never even notice them and avoid them by all cost. But this ad caught my eye: it had really pretty water bottles with fun patterns on it. So I clicked.

About 15 minutes later I was around 20€ poorer.

What did I buy? I bought 2 re-usable water bottles from EQUA: one for everyday use and one for working out. They look cool, are BPA-free (unlike regular plastic bottles) and hold 600 ml of water. Water is my absolute favourite drink and I drink around 3–5 litres of tap water every day. Tap water in both of my homes tastes just fine and having a re-usable bottle to carry it to school etc is great. Until today, I had been using regular plastic bottles to carry my water around but they collect tons of bacteria, get bumps in them and one has even broken in my handbag once, ruining some school papers. For workouts I had an old black sports bottle that was getting really dirty no matter how much I washed it. It also leaked sometimes. Not cool at all! 

EQUA also offers really beautiful and lightweight glass bottles but since I tend to break stuff very easily, I ordered plastic bottles. Better be safe than sorry. The bottles were 7,85€ each (on SALE right now!) + transportation (4,5€). They have so many beautiful patterns and it’s really hard to choose only one. 🙂 Right now I’m thinking about ordering another one in the future. I think I want a glass bottle to keep in my fridge. I wish they made something bigger, like 1,5 litres though… Anyone knows any other sites that sell something like that? 🙂

Around a week after placing an order online, my pretty bottles arrived. The quality is great and they look just as good as the photos on their website. The caps also look really durable and I’m pretty sure the bottles won’t leak and get all of my stuff wet. I’m 100% pleased with my order.

What is more, the creation of the company EQUA (from the words eco+aqua) was inspired by the idea protect the nature. Re-usable bottles are a great way to save the nature and not create as much waste. And also: EQUA donates 10% of net profit to organizations which promote a healthy lifestyle and are aware of the importance of nature. I find that’s socially responsible and awesome and from them. I felt a lot better spending my money on their products. 🙂

Drinking water is so important for your health and functioning of the body. Why not use a cute and environmentally friendly bottle? It sure inspires me not to forget to drink my water 🙂

Bottoms up!
