TRAVEL SUSTAINABLY THIS SUMMER WITH ECO-FRIENDLY SKINCARE BARS
Many people are looking forward to their summer holidays as the kids start to break up from school and we take a break from work. One item you shouldn’t forget while organising a trip—be it to the beach, the mountains, or the city—is your skincare. Since we at Eco Ems support environmentally friendly travel, we provide a selection of zero-waste skincare products, like as shampoo and soap bars. These environmentally friendly substitutes cut down on plastic waste and help you pack light! These are our recommendations for using zero-waste skincare bars when travelling this summer.
The Benefits of Zero Waste Skincare Bars
Let’s talk about why skincare bars are a game-changer for eco-conscious travellers before getting into travel advice. Conventional liquid skincare solutions are often packaged in plastic bottles, which adds to the increasing issue of plastic pollution. But skincare bars are packaged with little to no plastic, which makes them an environmentally friendly option. They are also made with natural ingredients that are kind to the environment and your skin, as well as being concentrated and long-lasting.
Top Tips for Sustainable Travel with Skincare Bars
- Choose Multi-Use Bars: opt for versatile bars that serve multiple purposes. For example, our soap bars can be used for both body and face, while our conditioner bars double as in shower body lotion. This reduces the number of products you need to pack, saving space and reducing waste.
- Invest in a Soap Dish with Drainage: To prolong the life of your skincare bars, keep them dry between uses. A soap dish with good drainage will prevent your bars from getting soggy, ensuring they last longer.
- Cut Your Bars for Convenience: If you’re going on a short trip or want to carry your bars in multiple places, cut them into smaller pieces. This way, you can keep a piece in the shower, by the sink, and in your travel bag without carrying the whole bar. It’s also perfect for sharing with family members.
- Pack in Beeswax Wraps or Tins: When travelling, wrap your skincare bars in beeswax wraps or store them in reusable tins. This keeps them clean, dry, and easy to access. Beeswax wraps are a fantastic alternative to plastic wrap or cling film and can be reused often.
- Use Soap Savers: Our soap savers are handy pouches that help you use every bit of your soap bars. Place the smaller pieces inside the pouch and when you wet them they will lather up before use. This ensures you get the most out of your products without any waste.
Ease of Traveling with Skincare Bars
Bringing skincare bars on holiday is so convenient. Bars, in contrast to bottles, are solid and do not count towards your liquids when travelling. As a result, you won’t have to worry about having to separate your liquids at airport security. Furthermore, skincare bars are small and light, making room in your suitcase for other necessities and more room for clothes.
Sustainable Travel and Skincare
Making the switch to zero-waste skincare bars will benefit the environment. Natural ingredients that are nourishing and moisturising for your skin, like coconut oil, rapeseed oil, and olive oil, go into each one of our bars. They are also free of harsh chemicals, safe for delicate skin, and enhanced with essential oils for an at-home aromatherapy experience.
At Eco Ems we are dedicated to offering luxurious, environmentally friendly products that support you in caring for yourself and the natural world. We provide a wide variety including shampoo bars, soap bars, and other vital skincare products that are healthy for the environment and for you. Ensuring you can make eco swaps easy in the bathroom and for any presents for your loved ones too.
