If you’re new to vegan beauty or makeup, I highly recommend giving a seasonal subscription service, like @vegancuts Makeup Box a try! 💄🌻✨
.
Every 3 months, you’ll receive a box full of vegan makeup delivered right to your doorstep 📦
.
Reasons to subscribe to #VegancutsMakeupBox:
.
🌼 you get to experiment and try new vegan products and brands!
🌼 it’s cheaper than buying each product on their own — you get full-size products (not dinky samples), usually over $100+ in value but you only pay $37-$55. The price depends on where it’s being shipped to (US, Canada, or International) and the length of the subscription.
🌼 in addition to all of the products being cruelty-free and vegan, they’re also natural and non-toxic.
🌼 you get to customize the box and pick colors that suit you best!
🌼 it’s a seasonal subscription so you’ll be sent products that go with the change in season and weather.
🌼 do good while looking good — partial proceeds from each Vegancuts Spring Makeup Box goes towards Wildlife Victoria rescue in Australia to help animals affected by the horrific bush fires.

Please read till the end 🌿 I recently bought these plant-based scour pads from @fullcircle, they're made from walnut shells and non-toxic materials 🧽 They work almost as good as plastic/synthetic scour pads and does the job of gently removing most dirt while not scratching my pans ⭐️ They were also made in Canada 🇨🇦 and Full Circle is certified B Corporation with a commitment to reduce their environmental impact, claiming their products use less energy and emit fewer greenhouse gases in production. 🌱 This all sounded great, which was why I bought them as I wanted a plastic-free and compostable alternative -- BUT, upon further research.. their website states their walnut shell scour pads are made of: Walnut shells AND recycled plastic! 😔 Making them actually NOT compostable.
.
Ahh yes, I should have done more research before buying and also, why wasn't recycled plastic listed on their packaging!?
.
On the surface, these may be a better option than other synthetic scour pads or sponges on the market as it's made from *recycled* plastic but I totally fell for the greenwashing here. Yes -- I, too make mistakes! 😬 I'm posting this mishap of mine to show you that living sustainably is a journey, and lessons will be learned along the way. This has taught me to do more research than just reading the product's packaging or an online retailer's product description before buying... And now that I know better, I can do better! 🌿

Some grocery stores have temporarily banned the use of reusable bags fear of the potential risk of further spreading the virus. Instead, stores will be handing out plastic bags to customers, free of charge.
.
✧ Totally understandable given our current situation, so this is a great time to make sure all of our reusable bags are washed and if needed, repaired 🌿
.
✧ ᴇᴄᴏ-ᴛɪᴘ: For bigger and bulkier items, I always like to use boxes (the grocery stores always have these on hand and they're totally free!) and when I forget to bring my reusable bags, I try to limit the number of items I buy to however many I can carry in my hands and out the store.
.
✧ Buying produce (like leafy greens 🥬) without a bag is another story... I’d love to know, do you have any tips or tricks for reducing our plastic consumption while buying produce during these times?

𝚌𝚞𝚛𝚛𝚎𝚗𝚝𝚕𝚢 𝚛𝚎𝚊𝚍𝚒𝚗𝚐 〰️ I've been reading a number of books about sustainable and ethical fashion including #ThisIsaGoodGuide by @mariekeeyskoot. It's full of digestible information and helpful tips on making more ethical and sustainable consumer choices along with endless examples and guides to help you start on your sustainable journey immediately.

𝚌𝚞𝚛𝚛𝚎𝚗𝚝𝚕𝚢 𝚍𝚘𝚒𝚗𝚐 〰️ I'm working on updating all of my vegan fashion guides that I've made in the past 5 years since starting my blog. Not only do I want to promote vegan and cruelty-free brands, but I also want to highlight those that care about the people who made their clothes and those making an effort to use eco-friendly dyes and sustainable materials. I just updated my list of vegan t-shirts and activism apparel, btw! ✨
