Refillable skincare products have been popping up more these days and are slowly permeating the mainstream. This is because the beauty industry is one of the largest contributors to plastic pollution. Many people are becoming more aware of the negative impacts of single-use plastic packaging products.
One of the benefits of refillable skincare products is that they can reduce the volume of plastic waste when you repurchase the refill. Secondly, they can help you save some money as it’s usually sold at a lower price compared to their original price. A great solution for both the consumer and the environment!
Trying to lead a more sustainable lifestyle? Why not start looking for products that are both environmentally friendly that are also good for your skin! We have rounded up some of our top refillable skincare picks that could be perfect for you.
