How to Switch to a Plastic-Free Daily Routine

Every few months or so, we replenish our shampoo, conditioners, deodorant, floss and mouthwash with brand new plastic bottles of it all. And every day, our ocean consumes 28,000 TONS of single-use plastic.

Along with bringing my own cup and reducing plastic use in other parts of my lifestyle, I have started looking into other impactful ways / companies that have made sustainability living easier. And by Humankind makes switching to a plastic-free daily routine effortless! They offer clean-ingredient refillable deodorants, dissolvable mouthwash, and biodegradable floss. They also have shampoo, conditioner and body bars that smell so fresh and wonderful. You can start a subscription but only refill when you need to, so no one is forcing you to take it monthly.

I’m excited to embark on this plastic-free, clean-ingredient grooming routine. Will you join me? Check by Humankind here, and you can start easily with their Starter Kit.
