Taking care of our planet does not mean we have to sacrifice caring for ourselves. Self-care is an essential part of living a healthful life, but often self-care items are packaged with single-use plastic.
The good news is that there are plenty of ways to make self-care part of your daily routine and live a zero waste lifestyle at the same time.
What are your favorite zero waste self-care products, store bought or homemade?
In my book, a practical guide to zero waste for families I have a whole chapter on zero waste personal care with tips for zero waste products and recipes for homemade ones.

Chemical free oral care tips and DIY mouth wash recipe.

Since they are made from plastic and are not biodegradable, they will remain indefinitely in landfills or — worse — in our oceans, nature or beaches, where they will add to greenhouse gasses and cause more global warming.
My favorite plastic free and compostable toothbrush is @bite
