One of the most potentially wasteful parts of your beauty routine is removing your makeup. Instead of wasting two to four cotton pads every day just to wipe the cosmetics away your face, use a reusable makeup remover like this one. Face Halo is a non-toxic and reusable alternative that gently removes your skin's impurities and makeup.
Packed in a glass jar and a recyclable bamboo lid, this foundation is meant to feel natural and light on your skin. Thanks to its buildable formula, it's easy to control whether you want a light tint or a full coverage. It also has jojoba oil that moisturizes your skin, bamboo stem extract that acts as an anti-irritant, and sea buckthorn which nourishes and revitalizes.
Sculpt your face and stay glowing with this blendable bronzer. It's formulated with SPF to protect your skin while it gives you that sun-kissed look that's perfect for spring and summer. Its packaging is plastic-free and the brand offers refills for a lower price — in other words, it's a win for your skin, budget, and the environment!
Kjaer Weis is another beauty brand that utilizes refillable packaging to help minimize waste. Its collection of cream blushes are made with jojoba seed oil to make your skin look rosy and hydrated. We also love the buildable formula that you can apply directly with your fingers.
Once you purchase this palette, you'll find yourself reaching out for it more and more. Its pigmented and blendable shades can make both your daily neutral look or smokey date night glam. Don't worry about hitting the pan too quickly, since it comes in refillable packaging!
