    I have switched over to a sustainable brand for my body wash (Bathing Culture Mind and Body Wash) to one that is vegan and cruelty-free. The product packaging is refillable, biodegradable and carbon neutral.
    Beauty/Personal care items are my biggest spend/splurge, so it’s great to find cost savings here through the refills, while making a positive impact environmentally, and not giving up the product quality I am accustomed to!
