Most important for a woman is her beauty routine. It is the day to time when she thinks about herself. But unknowingly, the woman increases her own beauty while compromising the beauty of the environment. For instance, she uses cotton balls for facial cleansing which after use, get piled up in the dustbin.

So, in this blog, we will discuss how to go Zero waste in your daily beauty routine and have Sustainable living.

Stay away from plastic containers

To keep the environment beautiful while keeping yourself beautiful, the first you can do is to buy those cosmetics that comes in paper bags or at least those cosmetic products which are not packed in plastic containers. These plastic containers ultimately after getting exhausted, get dumped into the dustbin and contributing in making a large wastes. These plastic containers cannot be degraded and if it is burnt then it transforms into harmful chemicals. Just imagine due to your use, the environment can get harmful gases in the air. So, try not to use it. If you already have, then after you have used it up, wash and re-use it by keeping some other things or lotions.

Go for wood

You can buy wooden tooth brushes for your teeth to be hygienic as well as beautiful. Even if you want you can buy everything in wooden body. Like lipstick, the body is available in plastic or wooden. You can choose wooden body over plastic ones. Even if you try to find on electronic market place, you can easily find out balm, mascara, eye liner, everything in wooden body. Try to shift towards that. If you are conscious about the look and feel of the cosmetics, believe me, they looks like very sophisticated ones.

Be Natural beauty

You may think this heading means that you are asked to do be natural rather than applying cosmetics. No, its not. This means you can use natural products which bio-degradable. Suppose for your party, you applied synthetic glitters. Firstly, they cause harm to your skin. Many contains carcinogenic materials. You are quite unaware that you do bodily harm while applying these synthetic cosmetics. Even you do harm to the whole environment. When you wash the glitters on your face, you see those glitters goes off with the water. But actually, those glitter particles never get biodegraded and simply those particles get accumulated and start causing harm to this wildlife, marine ecosystem, harms the soils and hence the crops. Now you may think, nothing will happen if you use them for once. But you have to think broader. There are many users (may be in millions) and there are again millions of users who use them everyday. Thus these synthetic cosmetics are only good to look but behind the scene they do immensely harm to you and the environment including the wildlife.

So, the solution is to buy the natural products, as much as you can. You can get all kinds of natural products in e-commerce platforms just with some typing and clicks.

This is the most important changes that you need to bring in your beauty routine. The things that you use to beautify yourself are mostly non reusable. May be you are not aware that the market is full of reusable items by using which you can beautify yourself. Simply in place of cotton balls, you can use reusable cotton pads. These pads are of high quality and also cause no harm to your skin. You can wash them and reuse them. Everyday you have to do facial cleansing and so, he generates much wastes. By using reusable cotton pads (make up pads) you can easily produce zero waste. In fact, there are many reusable cotton pads available in the market that comes in bamboo storage jar. So, the whole pack/set is harmless to you as well as to the Mother earth.

There are cotton buds available that comes with bamboo stick and packed in paper bag. So the whole set is plastic free and environmentally friendly.
