Sustainable Swaps : Bar Soap

Bye-bye Plastic !!

hello again friends ^^

      

a much quoted stat thanks to the work every environmentalists "There could be MORE PLASTIC than FISH in the ocean by 2050", what we do know is that in certain parts of the ocean, there is already seven times more plastic than fish. new research on larval fish, has found they are growing up around and ingesting micro plastics, which will potentially enter the human food chain.

when looking to start your zero-waste journey, the bathroom can be a great place to start <3

many plastic pollutant single-use products can be swapped out for more sustainable alternatives. plastic cup into a reusable cup (can sub for any jar), plastic bag into a reusable bag (i doesn't have to be pretty, any bag will do the trick), plastic foil can changed into handmade beeswax or any reusable food wraps, metal or bamboo or no straws over plastic, the list goes on!

so what does your bath soap look like? left or right?

bar soap or block soap are the perfect alternative to plastic package liquid soap as they are single used, naturally made, and BPA (Chemical produced which is considered dangerous to varying degrees) free anddd available for every skin type, so every one in the world can enjoy the benefits of an environmentally friendly soap.

actually the right one is the best choice to used, as i saw the ingredients all made from all naturals and plant based product. my previous liquid soap only contain sunflowers seed oil and fruit extract added with many industrial chemical components, meanwhile, the newest one i already bought was contained with saponified oils of coconut + sunflower seed, cocoa butter, candelilla wax, cocounut activated charcoal, and aloe vera which all ingredients are all naturally made. the price is not so expensive (i bought it 25k rupiah only) which can be used for 3-4 weeks. great stuff y'all.

belows are the several list of an online soap bar stores you can visit,
