10 Eco Beauty Products

1 Shave the planet

A metal-handled razor will last for years, save you money and protect the planet from single-use plastic disposables. FFS keeps packaging light and has a blade-recycling scheme, too.

Razor Starter Kit in Rose, £14 ffs.co.uk

2 Naked bars

Lush reckons around half of its products are now naked (with no packaging), and these shampoo bars smell divine.

Montalbano and Angel Hair Shampoo Bars, £9 each, lush.com

3 Soft option

Konjac root is a vegan alternative to sea sponge (a living creature sometimes harvested unsustainably). It’s gentle enough to use on the face, and compostable too.

Konjac Sponge, £4.95, tabithaeve.co.uk

4 Three in one

We love multi-purpose makeup. This kit rosies up lips, cheeks and lids and comes in boxes handmade from rubbish by a women’s co-operative in Bali.

Fill this bamboo make-up palette with the powders of your choice and you’ll save money and the environment.

Make beauty products work harder – this unscented balm keeps your lips, hands and body moisturised. It’s plastic free and a perfect pocket size.

10 Nicer wipes

According to the WWF, wet wipes cause 90% of sewage blockages in the UK, polluting our waterways and causing damage to wildlife. Try these cute, one-forevery-day-of-the-week washable bamboo pads instead.
