Many beauty brands are doing their bit to reduce their carbon footprint. Often, this comes down to their use of more eco-friendly packaging.
If you're looking for more ways to reduce, reuse and recycle without giving up on your beauty routine, here are five great eco-friendly products chosen by our beauty editor.
1) Clean hair
Anihana Grapefruit & Chamomile Shampoo Bar | RRP $13 | Amazon
As a brand that promotes guilt-free 'me time', it makes perfect sense that Anihana also has a sustainability focus when it comes to their packaging. Get up to 80 washes from this nourishing shampoo bar, which is the equivalent of three shampoo bottles.
2) So im-Pressed
Jane Iredale PurePressed Pressed Minerals Refill | RRP $82 | Adore Beauty
This foundation blurs lines, while hiding imperfections and protecting skin. Best bit? It comes in a reusable, refillable compact, so you can play your part in combating waste. (Did you know that 10,000 tonnes of cosmetic waste gets dumped into Aussie landfills each year?)
3) Smooth as shea butter
L'Occitane Shea Ultra Rich Body Cream | RRP $65 | Adore Beauty
This newly formulated cream in a refillable aluminium jar is perfect for sensitive skin. What's more, since switching to aluminium tin packaging that you can use again and again, L'Occitane now saves 28 tons of plastic per year.
4) Nourished and beautiful
Etch & Ethos Nourishing Body Lotion Summer Citrus | RRP $16.50 | Chemist Direct
Sustainability meets skin nourishment with this hydrating moisturiser. The recycled packaging encases skincare made from 94 percent natural ingredients on the inside, so you can feel good as you hydrate your skin.
5) Well-balanced
Trinny London Find Your Balance | RRP $68 | Trinny London
Unclog your pores and clarify your skin with this BHA exfoliant. Showing their commitment to waste reduction, Trinny London allows you to top up your exfoliant easily with a refillable casing.
