Claims13
A kit (1) for supporting an environmentally sustainable personal care routine, the kit (1) comprising:
- (i) a personal care implement (10) comprising a section at least partially made from a magnetic and/or ferromagnetic material (13), and
- (ii) a magnetic personal care guide (100) to which the personal care implement (10) is magnetically attachable and detachable, the magnetic personal care guide (100) comprises a guidance tool (110), the guidance tool (110) being activated and providing guidance on environmentally sustainable behavior by detaching the personal care implement (10) from the magnetic personal care guide (100), wherein the magnetic personal care guide (100) is a magnetic water saving guide (100) comprising a timer and a reminder function reminding a user about consumption of water after a pre-defined period of time, wherein upon detaching the personal care implement (10) from the magnetic personal care guide (100), the guidance tool (110) is configured to measure an initial intro-phase time period and during the initial intro-phase time period, provide at least one reminder signal prompting the user to turn off a running water tap, wherein the guidance tool (110) further comprises a user input by which the user can provide confirmation that the water tap has been switched off and a reward system that provides a reward signal when the confirmation is received within a pre-defined period of time.
A magnetic personal care guide (100) being adapted for releasably holding a personal care implement (10) comprising a section at least partially made from a magnetic and/or ferromagnetic material (13), the magnetic personal care guide (100) comprises a guidance tool (110), the guidance tool (110) being activated and providing guidance on environmentally sustainable behavior by detaching the personal care implement (10) from the magnetic personal care guide (100), wherein the magnetic personal care guide (100) is a magnetic water saving guide (100) comprising a timer and a reminder function reminding a user about consumption of water after a pre-defined period of time, wherein upon detaching the personal care implement (10) from the magnetic personal care guide (100), the guidance tool (110) is configured to measure an initial intro-phase time period and, during the initial intro-phase time period, provide at least one reminder signal prompting the user to turn off a running water tap, wherein the guidance tool (110) further comprises a user input by which the user can provide confirmation that the water tap has been switched off and a reward system that provides a reward signal when the confirmation is received within a pre-defined period of time.
