Such an ingenious idea! So, if you can brush your teeth with an eco-friendly bamboo toothbrush, you should be able to follow suit with bamboo beauty tools, right? Brands such as\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ecotools.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ecotools<\/a>\u00a0are pioneering this path by creating a line of biodegradable makeup brushes, makeup blenders, and skincare tools.

This simple swap will put your mind at ease.\u00a0<\/p><h2><img src=\"https:\/\/images.teemill.com\/guly7060istiw2aox9yvoxmss00ircwdnaqchjkztlxz5yap.png.jpg?w=1140&amp;h=auto\" alt=\"\" title=\"95166310\" \/><br \/><br \/>NO.4<br \/>Swap to Sustainably Sourced Beauty Ingredients\u00a0\u00a0<\/h2><p>Since our skin absorbs so much of what we put on it, shouldn\u2019t we be more responsible and intentional with the ingredients used in our go-to beauty routine? Clean beauty begins with shopping sustainably sourced beauty products that take into account ethics and range of product.\u00a0Our favourite brand is <a href=\"https:\/\/tropicskincare.com\/pages\/our-story\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Tropic Skincare <\/a>everything about there brand is helping not only for you to have the best skin but to make sure the planet isn\u2019t harmed in the making!<\/p><p>Invest in beauty products that offer a refill option which is what Tropic do best! Refill schemes expand the life of the materials holding our favorite products while making a conscious effort to minimize consumption.<\/p><p>Less packaging equals less waste. Companies implementing zero waste, compostable packaging are taking steps in the right direction. Beauty brands like Tropic use innovative science to harness the power of plants while packaging serums in glass bottles. When glass is recycled it gets turned into more glass. Meaning, unlike plastic, it can be recycled over and over again without losing its quality. Plastic, on the other hand, is downcycled and turned into something of a lesser quality, losing integrity with each use. This simple swap will ensure your beauty products have a long life, even after you are through with them.\u00a0<br \/><img src=\"https:\/\/images.teemill.com\/zwku7cxgqjvy3alt5we4oyk3vc2jtkdy1azhqr2ihnvoz044.jpeg.jpg?w=1140&amp;h=auto\" alt=\"\" title=\"95166435\" \/><br \/><br \/><br \/>NO.5<\/p><h2>Soap<\/h2><p>That pump-action liquid soap bottle you stick by your sink may be convenient, but its not ideal for the planet, as the metal screw inside the mechanism makes it difficult to recycle. Choose a good old fashioned bar of soap, make sure you\u2019re choosing from a sustainable brand.
