🦋 You are beYoutiful inside and out; I love you!
love this phrase "there's no such thing as being perfect but how do we do better?"
i recycle, i reuse glass bottles and jars whenever possible, i try to minimise the amount of water i use while showering and washing my face as well. i stopped using make up wipes and invested in a silicone brush from foreo for washing my face and i carry cloth bags for shopping. i''m not perfect but i'm trying and i believe that's important
Same here. It’s better to try and f* up than do nothing. If everyone thinks like that, the world would be safed!
Trying is always better then doing nothing. Love this forward thinking attitude!
good job!! 😁
we need more people like u thank you for caring ✨💕
Same here, keep it up! 😘 Currently on a quest to replace the kitchen faucet with a lever design instead of the finicky two-handle one that is currently discouraging my parents from turning off the water while washing dishes because of how long it takes to achieve the right temperature were they to turn it off and then back on >.< They didn't even take this into consideration when they last changed faucets from a lever one to this current one 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
Thank you for doing this cass!! I’m part of that generation that was told that we need to start recycling and while we know that it’s important, it’s also likely that we have not been taught the details of HOW to recycle. The proper way to actually reduce, reuse, and recycle. Not just chuck a bottle or can into it’s own separate bin. 🥔🦋🖤
when I was a kid my grandma always did teach me to open "empty" skincare tubes and bottles... either with scisors or with a bread knife in case of body lotions :P there always was a lot left.. few uses.. so I used some.. put it in a bag.. and use it again.. sometimes even again :P
Love your message and commitment to the planet, animals and each other. Your ability to be honest about your own journey, talking about the good, the bad and the ugly inspires me! Don't ever stop being you! Changing the world one skintelectual at a time!!! Badass!!!
I'm a big advocate of 'only buy when it's empty'. There are products I really want to try but I will refuse until the current one it empty. They will still be there when my cleanser has run out! The only time I don't do this is if my skin has a major reaction. Let's not be product junkies people!
Agreed!
Trueee I have such a bad habit of buying new stuff when my old product is like 7/8ths empty then never finishing it
Sameeee 💕 Marie Kondo taught me not to stockpile, it just creates clutter
Cassandra.... Should you start a movement? Talk about this more so ppl can learn to support companies that care about us, as a part of the Earth. You are a good influencer.
I really apreciate your content.
I live in Finland, and here recycling is made super easy, which is great because more people will recycle things. We recycle everything in my family which I’m proud of
I cut open the last sunscreen and I no joke had enough to continue using it for the next 2 days... and with another cream I used it for another week!!! Thank God I also cleaned the 2 products so I'm happy to see they'll be recycled.
I do that all the Time! I cut tubes of everything to use every inch of product!
Not many people talk about this thanks for educating us!!!
Honestly this is so important because it is so hard to use skincare sustainably and most packages are plastic.
🦋🦋🦋
I feel like your message is important, but all your purchase links go through amazon, one of the most polluting companies, and whose amazon prime is devastating for both the environment and the workers! We have to be mindful of human exploitation in our skincare because no purchase on amazon is cruelty free! I love you and your empathy and energy for justice and equality, and your voice would be so important for this fight!
Not to mention, in almost every reaction video where she sees a product being used she thinks is good or interesting, she'll be so quick to say it's "in her cart" or something. LEt's not forget the shopping vlogs, etc. Influencers go through so many products and Cassandra is no exception. She does still indirectly (if not directly) promote overconsumption and I take issue with taking kind of a moral high ground? over this when I have a feeling Cassandra is far more guilty of overconsumption of products than the majority of people in this comment section.
Thank you so much for bringing up sustainability in terms of fashion, beauty, landfills, and the garbage ocean gyres. And the struggles of finding sustainable skincare. Thank you so so so much for describing the recycling numbers and what they mean and the importance of reducing and reusing first! God this is my favorite video of yours haha I love them all but this makes me so fckin happy to see an environmentally informed influencer :’) we love you cass
You are one of the best influncers
Yes, she is.
Yes
THE best, most informed influencer
Yes
Totally agree
If only recycling is not broken in the US. The best way to be sustainable is to buy as few products as possible and buy only what you need.
Hey y'all do take note of your LOCAL recycling guidelines! Pretty much every recycling plant is different and you need to know what your specific one requires from you in order for the process to be efficient. Other local factors might have an effect on the overall eco-friendliness of the recycling process as well.
An example. Where I live (quite a ways from Cassandra -Helsinki, Finland) we are specifically directed NOT to wash plastic containers before recycling as that uses up a lot of water. We don't have a water scarcity problem as such but water treatment and heating uses up a lot of energy and as only 40% of our energy comes from renewables energy usage means pollution. What we are told to do instead of washing is only scoop or wipe extra product left in the container. With cosmetics this usually leaves the container clean enough for the recycling plants in my area and the plant can easily sort out non-suitable packaging if you happen to make a mistake. However, if the container is still very dirty after scooping (as can be with food packaging or maybe very oily cosmetics) it's better for the environment to put it in the non-recyclables bin than to wash it. One condition for this to make sense is a modern (and cleanish) mixed-waste incinerator plant that we have locally that produces energy for the district heating system. On an area that uses a garbage dump or ships mixed waste to a far away local it could well be that all means of avoiding mixed-waste are recommended.
Overall, just be mindful of local conditions before washing used packaging. It might not be necessary and could even be harmful to environment. Sorry for the rant. 🙈 I love that this channel has content on skin care ethics!
Y’all’s county recycling plant rocks 👏🏼
First a movie, now another video. Love it 💕🦋
I either recycle or reuse. Aluminum tubes, glass bottles and droppers I recycle, glass jars I reuse after washing and sterilizing. I have fruit trees and bushes in my garden so I make jam to put in the jars then hand it out to friends and family.
Cass!! You should check out apostrophe as well! They’re kinda like how curology first started out. They offer custom prescription topicals from a derm but also oral medications and their website and social media accounts are all about education on skin health. They also seem to be putting more effort into sustainability education and donating to different causes. I’ve been getting my tret and spironolactone from them for a year and I really enjoy it !
apostrophe saved my life tbh only thing that ever worked
i make oat milk at home and it’s meant to be stored in sealed mason jars which i don’t have, so i use washed spaghetti sauce jars or even peanut butter ones. my mom paints over empty nutella jars and uses them to store tea, sugar, etc. reusing jars and bottles is really great cus you can use them for almost anything lol
Nice
thank YOU! recycling is so important for our furture and i’m so glad you’re bringing the importance of this!!
I love how most of us skintelectual night owls
I've begun investing my money in the real ME rather than the made-up, societal pleasing "me". Instead of wasting money on new makeup products, clothes, and home decor, I have taken up thrifting more so than ever to reduce the market need that, in turn, generates new items to be produced. Throughout my time doing this, I have been overjoyed to find and pick unique items that truly stand out to me and that aid in me feeling that I have made a conscious, thoughtful decision in what I allow into my life. Walking into major retailers, malls, and perusing online sites no longer instills that WANT in me because I now understand that even though I may think something is beautiful or convenient, I do not absolutely need it. What really helped me get this down was when I began shopping for housewares. I had SO much stuff at home and clutter was piling up...I made the proactive decision to donate all that I could in order to declutter and feel more comfortable in my home environment. I took on the mindset of functionality. If something is unique AND I can use it for a certain purpose that fits my lifestyle, I make the choice to put my money towards it. Even with that, I later learned to research companies and pinpoint what THEY support, if they have any environmental/eco-friendly labeling, and what that means in their eyes. As a child, I had an affinity for sweet tea and fell in love with a brand that had witty or insightful sayings on the inside cap. The one I have thought about since then said, "What you own also owns you". Hearing that changed my view entirely on consumerism and my role within that as a part of the societal whole. I am so grateful for that little tea cap as it has stuck with me for well over a decade. Thank you for sharing this video, I feel as though this subject needs to be addressed more widely, it was thorough and informative
I love that you are bringing these issues to awareness. And I love that you gave Shelbizlee a shout out , her channel is one of my favorites.
There’s a huge difference between recycling in different places. I’m glad that I’m living in a green city, it’s great knowing that it’s a priority.
Thank you for always making content focused on issues beyond just reviewing the product itself. I remember when I learned that recycling has all of these rules... It’s unfortunate, but recycling is a business, so if it’s not “worth it” for a company to actually recycle, they wont.
Yay back to back videos, thanks for everything you do for our skin, and our environment. You and your team are the best! Xoxo
At first I was excited about this brand, but after visiting the website and taking the quiz, less so.
I'm an amateur cosmetic formulator. I make some of my own skin care, using the same ingredients available to the pros. I learned what makes a good formula, and how ingredients should be combined. You can't tell everything from an ingredient list, but you can learn a lot.
I like that Yours includes full ingredient lists. That's a plus.
However, their "active Swiss ingredients" don't appear in the list! Well, they might, but under different names. I consider this a little bit shady.
A great formula has preservative - no exceptions. There are natural preservatives ... but in many of Yours' products, I don't see preservative ingredients listed. They may be using something I don't know, but they may also be hiding something. [You can get away with less preservative (not zero) in a true airless pump, but if you can open the bottle, it's not airless.] As a contrast, Paula's Choice not only has full ingredient lists on their site, they explain the purpose of each one.
Finally, the quiz. I'm part of the vast "50+" group, but I have very good skin I've always taken care of: few wrinkles, no age discoloration, a very little sagging. [My photo was taken at age 54.] I answered the quiz truthfully ... my products had ingredients to reverse pigmentation!
I don't think I'll be buying from them. I'll stick with Paula for my retinol, AHA and BHA, Korean sunscreens, and make my own basics.
Hi Liz, thanks for sharing your honest feedback, happy to address your concerns:
Regarding the active ingredients, as per the regulatory requirements, we display the complete ingredients list with INCI names. Each active ingredient is a combination of multiple actives, for example, Pinolumin which is a Swiss stone pine extract is a combination of these- Aqua & Alcohol & Pentylene Glycol & Pinus Cembra Wood Extract. Another example- Miniporyl which is red clover flower extract is combination of- Isopentyldiol & Trifolium Pratense Flower Extract.
Based on your feedback, we are taking away a learning to add the INCI of each active separately and we are also working on colour coding the ingredients based on EWG safety rating to make it easier for our users to read the ingredients list. As a young start-up, we are always looking to learn from the experience and feedback from our customers 🙂
As for the preservatives, we do use safe and gentle preservatives like SODIUM BENZOATE, POTASSIUM SORBATE, etc. We believe in complete transparency and all the ingredient lists on our website are 100% complete, there are no hidden ingredients.
Lastly, the recommendation you would have received for ageing skin must have been full of anti-oxidants (which also reverses pigmentation).With age, the skin barrier function naturally weakens, hence, anti-oxidants are all the more important to protect ageing skin from damage caused by oxidative stress. Oxidative stress in skin plays a major role in the aging process causing wrinkles, etc. Hope that explains why you were recommended anti-oxidants in your routine.
Please ignore the last word on previous opinion. My phone went nuts n started to make up words. I couldn't fix it before it posted, all b4 I was ready. So sorry. But I do luv all the care u put out there for us. Ur bomb girl!!!!
I'm happy to see more and more recyclable packages on shelfs in shops or less waste shops or options even in big markets. Thanks for talking about this topic🐶
Thank you for uploading this!!! I was literally thinking about how unsustainable skincare was just last night and you read my mind ❤️
Maybe we should all aim at using less skin care and or use more local (indy) brands? Fact is we get a daily tsunami of products forced upon us through Social media and influencers who seduce us to buy. We scream for influencers and celebrities to start their own skin care line, which sells out like crazy. And I don't even want to mention the burden on the environment because of all the shipping, wether from Hong Kong (Yesstyle) or Switzerland 😉
Also, how weird is it that glass jars can't be recycled when there product still left in them! Where I'm from (the Netherlands) we are allowed to hand in half full wine bottle or jars with residu in them.
Sorry, if my writing isn't correct. English is not my first language.🇳🇱
Yes! Yes! I thought I was the only one who would cut their packaging to get all the product off. It really is impressive how much is left
I use everything I can in a more eco friendly format. For example, shampoo and conditioner bars, oils or bars for the body etc. but when it comes to things like toothpaste or skincare, I am very cautious. for example I would never in my life risk my teeth by using diy toothpaste and with toothpaste tabs, appaerently they don't contain enough fluoride. And when it comes to my skincare, yes, most products I use are packaged in plastic, but I really minimized my routine. Also, I don't eat fish, so that's probably the most impactful thing I do when it comes to plastic and the oceans
Don’t eat fish? The way that animals are farmed to produce meat emits so much CO2 too!
@@alicecgong Yeah I said it's the most impactful tjing regarding plastic in the ocean, I didn't talk about CO2 :) But absolutely true what you said about CO2 emissions in the meat industry!
@@mareikeschaufele6741 yea to be even greener, we should all be vegan 😂😅 (it’s hard and I’m not
@@alicecgong I actually am :) could still be greener though I have some really bad shopping habits 😅 But I'm working on it
@@mareikeschaufele6741 Good for you!!
Thank you for highlighting this! There are loads of brands that are focusing on this, here in the UK I'm loving facetheory which has great ingredients and uses sustainable packaging, Kri skincare use glass bottles and droppers and if you need to get another one you can order the bottle without the dropper.
Also, I've seen polyethylene in things like blush and eyeshadow, is that the same as polyethylene glycol?
Look at Cassandra blessing us with daily content 👏🏻☺
I'm so glad you're talking about the reality of recycling and the fallacies of green marketing !!!! 💗
This is something that's been niggling me for a while, so I'm super grateful to you for taking the time to make this video! 💕💕
🐱🐈+📦=❤
I live in Germany and didn't knew this brand. Thank you for your research!
Omg I seriously asked you this question 2 days ago! Thanks for the update on #yoursskincare
Thank you so much for finding and recommending this company! When I run out of my serum, I think I'll try theirs. I've been searching for a good serum to try.
I've mentioned it in Shelbies videos and I will mentioned it here again; if you want to start a zero waste life, move into rural Africa! I didn't plan it but it has been a huge factor in my consumption and awareness of everything. And also, I am a scuba instructor and live by the beach, so everything that gets thrown into the ocean, comes to your beach with every wave! I see our landfills full of plastic and they are getting burned despite all efforts that we try (unfortunately there is a big chin ese influence here). I am proud that reusing and reducing has become a big part of my life where indeed, all my jars and cans work as decoration in the garden or in the kitchen. Crafting is the only place that I dedicate my DIY now after being educated by your channel and others! Keep it up Cys-ter. Love your content
If only you posted this video before I bought from Yours yesterday after watching your video 😭
Honest moment:
this is the very first skin care line I have ever bought and to give you a Measure of what that means I have yet to buy and receive a sunscreen and I just bought one yesterday that will be on the way soon.
I wish I could use your promo code for the next time I purchase from them😁.
Happy Earth day, great idea for a video. Very thorough research. Good job!😁
I'm experimenting with a bar soap facial cleanser (cardboard container) right now and it's going well! I'm thinking my toners/serums are correcting any pH changes caused by the soap. TBH, I'm not sure if bar soaps designed for the face have a high pH like other bar soaps. Either way, I'm not seeing any irritation.
Maybe I missed it but how are caps recycled? Do they collect them from customers and recycle themselves? Because from my experience all the pumps, spray and other multi-component caps are VERY DIFFICULT to recycle and are most likely not recycled by city system (but are recycled by someone like terracycle)
Also on their website they say to reuse the bottles but I couldn't find quickly how to purchase refills. But maybe it was somewhere deeper on the website
Hi Anastasia, sorry for missing your comment! We're a young startup and our recycling program is in the pipelines, however there is also an environmental cost to transport products back to us - as such we're in the midst of figuring out how we can scale this effectively and globally. We're working on launching refill packs of your personalised skincare as well, which will be a much more cost effective and environmentally-friendly option for you. P.S. check out our sustainability roadmap here - yours.sg/sustainabilityroadmap
omg I love that you mentioned shelbizle! I love her channel. I would love if you guys did a collab!
I needed this video!!! Im trying to be More aware of what i throw away, what i can reuse, etc..... This week i started to use solid shampoo y ANd im in love with it! Changing habits one step at a time 🙂
@Cassandra Bankson do you have thoughts on silicone (whether cyclic or linear, natural or synthetic) being deposited into waterways, ingested by animals, contributing to "sludge" in city water systems, etc? In the past, you have said that they are safe for topical use, but the environmental impact has not been addressed. To my understanding, the environmental impact of silicones in the beauty industry is unknown and research is needed.
I am locking to change my skincare to as much glas as possible. And minimize as much as bearable. I'm interested in companies that go towards refilling/only selling refill glasses that you can reuse the plastic pump with. I think that's the way to go.
I am so sick of some corporations telling consumers that we need to do more!!! As someone who does a lot behind the scenes with recycling, composting, and sustainability, I am beyond pissed about all these companies taking advantage of earth day to spew such bull about the minimum effort they are doing and how as consumers we need to do all these things with their products in order to do our part. Yes, I do believe all small changes anyone can make, do in fact matter. However, can we stop pretending that us as consumers can on our own fix the problem. We need corporations to be responsible for the new plastic and other materials they are creating to make products, they also need to be responsible for ensuring recycling processes are actually available to majority of their consumers before they preach about consumer responsibilities. I could go on but I think this is enough for now!
We need more videos like this because I'm too lazy to Google what to do with my empty bottles.... even though I could've done it right at this second. I have no excuse.
I do recycle everything that can be recycled in our city Saratov. I also try to buy those products that are in recyclable packaging. It is sad that not a lot of types of plastic are recyclable in my city. Hope this situation will be improved in near future.
Thank you so much for this Cass!
I do my best to eat mostly vegetarian or vegan, walk or bike to and from work, try to use as least paper as possible at work! Skincare is the one area of my life right now where I have a hard time keeping my spendings to a minimum 😅
I live in Switzerland and was wondering where to get these products. It appears that my order would be shipped from a far away country. Not sustainable enough for me personally 😕
You literally make my life better
Ordering overseas for more plastic doesn't seem ideal for many. But for folks more local (and willing to spend) seems like a cool option. Seems so lush to use! Edit: not loving that they have disposable pads for one of their products, but the price for the basic routine isn't bad!
Hi there! Our Clean Slate Exfoliating Pads are indeed recyclable as they are made of a cotton-blend and are recyclable with textiles. The outer tub packaging is made of Polypropylene (PP), a 100% recyclable thermoplastic polymer widely used for different products. The inside cap is made of Polyethylene (PE), which is fully recyclable as well.
I really love how you talk about topics like this, especially because you reach so many people. So thank you! ♡ :)
But... I don't like that we as consumers have to do all this work and thinking. It should be the labels, the factories, whoever is part of producing and recycling the products, that should take care of that and not our responsibility! /:
YES!!! THIS IS THE VIDEO I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR! :)
I think I know why so many people react so strongly to your videos and perhaps dislike some things. You make us uncomfortable with our everyday choices and make us realize we can and should do better. Not an easy thing to digest.
I luv ur videos. U take so much time putting them together. Ur thoughtful n thurough
I think I would recycle more if I had a dish washer, however I am a college student, so I don't.
Also I wish I could be more sustainable with skin care but it is very difficult. I have eczema, and occasionally get folliculitis that takes forever to go away. I also have body acne, and I easily get streach marks. Sometimes I have to wrap my skin with gauze with different cream, serums, oils, and ointments to see a difference. I recently have started to use advanced clinicals retinol and collagen lotion, which has helped. I am 19 so I find my skin a little annoying. I know brands are doing customized skin care for faces, but I think they should also do it for bodies.
I have a question, we might sort stuff properly but we still put it in a common container with people who likely don't do it properly, it's not like those companies trust people to do it 100% properly either and I just don't believe they go through every single pieace of trash and evaluate it... so how does it work in the end?
From what I've read, it all goes through a massive machine and is separate out into recycle or not. I'm assuming there is some fancy machine learning going on. If there is food in containers it can't identify it as recyclable. Anything not identifed goes to the dump. Us sorting prior helps the machine out so more overall gets recycled. Where I'm from if you don't sort your recycling correctly they won't take it.
I believe Honest Beauty has airless pumps as well!
Love the emphasis on reuse!!
I didn't find anything to convince me against polyethylene yet, we'll be waiting for your findings and thoughts on it. 😍
This seems like an amazing company! I just filled out the questionnaire and it got me pretty accurately but it did not ask me where I lived 🤔
Hi Jeanne! Oops we missed this comment. We are in the midst of moving to our new website where the updated version of the skin assessment is at! Feel free to start here > yours.sg/sa
Someday can you do a video about different cleansing bars and how you feel about them? I try to go glass when I can but there are only so many cleansers in glass from trusted brands. I do not think there are amazing options for bars yet but I want to know your thoughts on a lot of them.
In the UK, LOOK FANTASTIC will recycle empty, clean cosmetic packages for free via storm board! You just need to send the empties to them and they will take care of the rest. I wish more companies had initiatives like this ❤️
This was such a fantastic and informative video. Thank you 🙏
I have learned so much from you! Thank you!
Yaay. We need to be like you. Incase of sustainability point
Cassandra, how many products do you buy in one month?
I'm new to skincare, and I just inherited a little bit of money. Bad combination! I use bar soaps for hands and sometimes for face. I'm oily and the high quality face bar soaps don't strip my face.
I don't have a lot of money usually, and I really don't consume a lot of goods generally. I rarely buy clothes, I don't buy new furnitures, always used. I share a car with my mom, we live close and that works for us. I actually do quite a lot that is sustainable. And the splurging in skincare is short term. I will probably retire to use differin, vitamin c, moisturizer, bha/aha and sunscreen in the future. But right now I really love Korean skincare rituals. It's so meditating and fun, and the skin looks radiant.
Thanks for this content! Also in Europe there is this brand called Nøie that has very similar beliefs, skin test, packaging, and price (with focus on acne prone skin). I hope the products are as good. If yes, it is a great option on this continent :)
Thank you for making this video!!!
please link the aeroplane humidity experiment video! that sounds so cool
I found you just yesterday but you're srsly a bless
Brands with airless pumps - syncare (at least in Europe)
Love you and your channel!
Thank you for discussing this important topic. 🌎
I really like your videos and this one is no exception. However, I do have issues with the brand claiming to be “swiss skincare”. It is produced in Switzerland (the website does not give further details), however, the return adress is in Singapore. Additionally, free shipping is only offered for the Us, Australia and Singapore. They do ship to Switzerland, however, they do not disclose any information, where they ship from. The website is not available in any of our four official languages (german, french, italian or rumantsch).
If they (and you, for that matter) said, “produced in Switzerland” I would not have an issue. The phrase “swiss” suggests that it is a swiss company, which is not the case. Please differentiate in the future, especially if you make the claim about how “expensive swiss skincare normally is” from the video where you initially reviewed the brand.
Hi Linnea! We're truly sorry for the confusion here and we understand how it can be confusing (we'll make a note of it to update our comms!)- our HQ is based in Singapore, and we ship either from Singapore or the US where we have a local fulfilment centres, depending on where you're based. That said, all our products (with the exception of Clean Slate Exfoliating Pads) are made in Switzerland, where our laboratory is located. The origin of the products is Switzerland and hence, we claim "Swiss-Made" but we do not claim to be a Swiss Company anywhere on our website. We're a young start-up and working hard towards launching in more countries soon 🙂
Rest assured, we are not up to any shady business. I'm also sharing the story of our founder here-thriveglobal.com/stories/use-a-selfie-to-create-hyper-customized-skin-care-products-with-candice-georgiadis-navneet-kaur/
I love this!! Once I’m done with some skincare I’d love to use this brand. I did a project last semester on the future of plastic pollution and how it can be managed better. One thing that gave me hope was that PS and other plastics can be made in combinations that scientists are testing to show a much faster degradation. This information can be used when plastic is manufactured. Also, one study showed that when PS is photochemically oxidized it breaks down much faster than previously thought (because previous studies were based on the biological composition vs during a reaction with sun & water) and breaks down into carbon dioxide and dissolved carbon. I’d like to send you my presentation if you’re interested. I should note my chemistry and biology knowledge is mostly beginner from pre-med style classes.

Whether you can recycle things and the specific rules are very dependent on your location! Take a few minutes and look up the rules in your area if you want to be the most confident your items are being recycled and aren’t contaminating the recycling stream!
One of my favorite influencer! S2
Was looking for something like this, thankyou💕
I actually DID turn a spaghetti jar into a flower vase 2 days ago! 🤩🍝💐
In France and Belgium (that I know of), you don't need to rinse your glass containers before recycling, because they already rinse them during treatment... So please, only rinse your glass if it is explicitly required to do so, otherwise you're wasting water!
Jeez, I love this channel, always straight to the fact ^_^
thank you

Neogen colab with joan kim is one that you refill so the big tub is reused the little plastic liner is desposed of..not perfect but better...
I was taught in school to reduce, try to reuse and if all else fails recycle. But I was always confused about bathroom stuff, am I suppose to chuck it with the used toilet paper or something.
My skin care quiz from this brand contained like 6 questions and definitely did not ask me my zip code

I understand that you’re talking about a specific brand but a huge thing you can do for the environment is avoid plastic packaging. A lot of recycling is actually thrown out and plastic is the worst for it. Better alternatives include: cardboard packaging, reusable packaging!
Hi there! We hear you, and our packaging is actually entirely reusable. We're a young start-up and with our next round of funding, we're working towards launching refill packs of your personalised skincare, which will be a much more cost effective and environmentally-friendly option for you. Our bottles also have an airless pump inside which prevents any product from sticking to the walls which makes recycling easy.
Above all, we believe that the biggest step towards sustainability we all can take is to reduce the wasteful consumption which is sadly rampant in the beauty industry due to the problem of trial and error involved in finding the 'right' skincare products. The magnitude of wasteful consumption is huge- Cosmetics industry alone produces 120 bn units of packaging every year! At Yours, we are on a mission to make skincare simple and sustainable by using technology to create a minimalist personalized routine. We combine 6-10 actives in every formulation so you don't need an elaborate routine to take care of all your skin needs.
We have also published our sustainability roadmap for everyone to follow our sustainability efforts here- yours.sg/sustainabilityroadmap
@@lovefromyours thanks for taking the time to reply so thoroughly! I hope to see plastic reduction and that refill program in your brands future! You have some great items on your road map and you make a great point about the impact of trial and error.
