Solid cosmetics are becoming more commonplace in many bathrooms these days. If you're looking for ways to have a more sustainable beauty routine, using a solid shampoo could be a good start
Have you tried switching to solid cosmetics? If not, then there's no time like the present, as these solid formats are the shape of the future when it comes to beauty routines.
It's out with shelves of bottles and endless ingredient lists, and in with new-gen shampoos, conditioners, toothpaste and soaps that are light on the packaging—and preservatives—for a revamped, 100 per cent-responsible beauty routine that's good for your skin and for the planet.
Old-school soap is where it's at
The move towards more responsible and environmentally respectful consumer habits can sometimes—in fact, often—mean taking a step backwards. And cosmetics are no exception, with the solid bars of soap used by our parents, grandparents and great-grandparents slowly creeping back into bathrooms in recent years. And for good reason, since these soaps—suitable for face and body—don't need any plastic packaging and are kind to skin, so long as you stick to natural varieties.
