Low waste skin/face/body routine

Why would you change from normal skin/face/body products you might ask. My number one reason to change from normal products to organic and non-plastic packaged products was easy. I wanted to buy products that didn´t contain a lot of weird ingredients that could be dangerous for me. I also wanted to cut down on any products packaged in plastic. 

Because I am almost only using body lotion and face lotion and don't use any oils either on my face or on my body or in my hair I have not tested these organic products that are sold in eco and bulk stores, I only know that they do exist, if you as me are trying to reduce the amount of trash your making. 

In my local bulk stores in Cardiff and Helsingborg, they had natural face, hand, foot, lip and body lotions as well as deodorant, cleansing oil, shaving soaps and shaving creams, night and day creams, cleansing oil, beard oil and other oils and creams, Argan oil, shaving soap, makeup from Zao, face serum, beard oil, face serum, eye cream, face toner, calming cream, cleansing balm and much more all packaged in either glass jars or metal jar, or in cardboard. All reusable or recyclable.

So my tip is, if you feel like you like me don´t want to take the step over to making your own products but still want to buy an organic and natural alternative to your oils and creams today is to go to your local bulk store or eco store and buy your beauty and hair/skin/face and body products. 

Right now I am mostly using up any old hand/foot/hair/face/body products that i have while I buy new products that I can use when I run out of the other normal products.

So what I would recommend first is checking in your normal grocery store what you can find in forms of body/skin/face/hand/foot and hair products before you run off to a zero waste bulk store.

Try to be smart. Products in eco stores/low waste stores are often more expensive than normal grocery store brands or that's at least how it is in my case.

You can also make a lot of your own products. I have not come that far yet but maybe in the future, I can share my experience on that as well.

I will make a separate post about makeup because yes it counts in as skin products but it is in a way its whole own problem, so more about makeup in a later post.

Those are my tips for this
