R29 editors are here to help with step-by-step instructions for recycling beauty products. ♻️
Have you ever finished a beauty product — scraped the very last glob of cream out of your moisturizer with your pinky finger — and thought:Oh, have we been there. In the past few months, our Refinery29 Beauty team has been thinking about how we, as editors, can work to be more sustainable, which is a unique challenge given that large part of our job is testing out beauty products to tell you about the ones we love.
It's confusing, because many beauty products are too small to be effectively recycled in traditional recycling facilities.
