The everyday choices we make all have an impact on the environment. Whether this is a coffee cup that can’t be recycled or an extra plastic bag from your food shop. These little things all add up. Which is why we are making an effort to make small sustainable lifestyle updates that will help the environment we live in.
SUSTAINABLE LIFESTYLE UPDATES YOU CAN MAKE NOW
THE ZERO-WASTE EFFORT
It is almost impossible to go entirely zero-waste, but we are making a conscious effort to cut down where possible. This includes bringing your own mesh bag to the supermarket for your fruit and vegetables and choosing beauty products that can be recycled or use recycled packaging. I would also encourage using a toothbrush with a wooden handle to further reduce your waste footprint. Zero waste would also mean reusing an item in a different way instead of throwing it out. Why not use an old makeup brush to apply a face mask instead of getting rid?

USE REUSABLE BOTTLES AND COFFEE CUPS
Billions of disposable coffee cups are used every day, which means that we throw them away with only a small percentage recycled. By carrying a reusable coffee cup, this will dramatically reduce the chance of using a disposable cup and will help reduce waste. Similarly applies to carry a water bottle – plus, you will stay hydrated!

KNOW YOUR INGREDIENTS
Lately, we are all more conscious of products that contain palm oil. But palm oil is not the only ingredient that can be harmful to the environment. Ingredients like microbeads are also bad. By avoiding products that contain damaging ingredients, you are reducing your personal footprint, a change that will have a knock-on effect.
