finding ways to weave plastic free in my beauty routine. I've become obsessed with shampoo bars by Lush or Kitsch. Also Native has a compostable deodorant stick.

That's great info Joi thank you! I wish more packaging was compostable. Even the cosmetics I use that come in glass bottles still have plastic pumps/tops. I use Biork crystal deodorant that comes in cork packaging! And I make my own deodorant paste.

I hear ya of the plastic pumps! I'll share one more thing or I could go on forever LOL but Billie Eilish's miniature perfume, Eilish, does not have a plastic spray pump, it's old-school like put your finger over the top of bottle, which I appreciate from a young pop star who is creating sustainable packaging and cruelty free products

Yes! More inspiration. Thank you. I know it’s not a competition, but I scored pretty high. On the other hand, there are definitely a few things I could be doing (or not doing) that are yet to be accomplished. I’m going to work on it. Also I’m very glad you know who Sally Forth is.

I love that you got a high score! There's always something to work on. I gotta get even more vigilant about plastic because it's *everywhere*

Building a compost bin out of wooden pallets is SO easy & usually they’re free

Such a worthy use of my time to read this post. Especially about the cigarette butts! And, I ain’t gettin’ any younger.
