I have always believed that if you want to assist in making a difference, you must know why those changes make a difference in the first place. You must understand why the choices you’re going to make matter.
Truth of the matter is that beauty depends highly on available resources. As we all now, our resources are being impacted daily. There are certain practices that we can help adapt to help slow down the depletion of the natural resources that we have now available to us. Now, don’t let that scare you. Most of these practices are not as bad as you think. But before I get into this, have you noticed the many sustainable practices that some beauty brands now offer?
I have noticed so many companies now offering refill packaging. Isn’t that great? Beauty packaging is something we have all taken for granted. I have always cringed when throwing out so many tubes of plastic. I have learned to support brands that now offer the opportunity to purchase refills. Not only do you save in cost, but you make an impact on your landfills!
The less the better. One small impact makes a BIG difference.
CLEAN BEAUTY
Right now, the cost of the zero-waste movement is slightly higher than that of what plastic is. The only way sustainable materials would become cheaper is if there is more consumer pressure demanding it. I honestly believe that this movement is on the rise. We just need to keep pushing this.
We must come together to reduce the carbon emissions to avoid catastrophic climate change damage by 2100.
