Micellar waters are made from surfactants, so attract water and oil to form ‘micelles’ that cleanse and moisturise skin. Bristolmade is a sustainable brand sold in glass jars, made with base and essential oils and a little witchhazel, instead of chemicals used in major brands. Sold in glass jars.
Avoid contact with eyes (if occurs, rinse well with warm water). Keep items away from young children and pets (due to essential oils). For their other items, keep cocoa butter away from your skin, if you live with pets.
Natural zero waste beauty products cost a little more but work better, so you can gradually reduce the number of items used. They also contain plant-based biodegradable ingredients free from ‘parfum’ (artificial fragrance), collagen (cow bones) and plastic packaging. Some brands of beauty care contain animal-based hyaluronic acid (from roosters) and squalane (from endangered sharks).
