We are leaving the kitchen, because I wanna show you my basic zero waste beauty routine.

I’m so excited for today’s topic, it’s something I’ve been wanting to share with you for a very long time.

So if you want to read a bit more about this book (and win a copy), and want to know how I reduced my plastic waste in the bathroom, and what’s my current zero waste beauty routine, just keep reading!…
