Green hair...we don't mean ths literally.
And other green things...
You may be surprised to hear that toxins are lurking in your bathroom? And I’m not talking about whatever’s hiding on your faucet handles or under your toilet seat. I’m talking about the thousands of chemicals that are found in the very products you use to get clean and beautiful each day. To make your everyday beauty regime less toxic and more environmentally friendly check out the following tips. Try a few (or all!) of them to reduce your impact on the world!
1. Use organic products. The MOP hair range is a great one to check out!
2. Be friendly to the animals and only buy products that are not tested on them. To check if a product is cruelty free look for the “leaping bunny” symbol. The Body Shop have a great range of products that are ALL not tested on animals.
3. Take five seconds to read the label and put down any product that contains phthalates, mercury, toluene, lead, formaldehyde, petroleum distillates, parabens (hormone-disrupting preservatives such as methylparaben, butylparaben, ethylparaben, isobutylparaben, and propylparaben), or BHA. These chemicals are considered the most detrimental to human and environmental health.
4. Buy less! Do you really need twenty cleansers, and ten different moisturizers?
Save the environment and save aswell just by cutting back a touch.
5. Install a rainwater tank and use that to shower instead of using the normal water. You’ll be amazed at how much softer your hair feels.
Keep your ears open and eyes peeled for a future post regarding green hair....yes we're planning a suprise!
