The beauty industry is the top offender for creating plastic waste, contributing to 120 billion units of packaging every year, and sadly most of it is not even recyclable! So why create extra waste, when we can make with ingredients from home! This blog is a working blog, meaning whenever we come across a new DIY beauty recipe, we will add it here!
