Sustainability is the talk of the world whether it comes to moving forward or the things concerning us. But when it comes to beauty, sustainability is defined in terms of a smooth transition from our needs to nature’s needs. Although, there are many ways in which a person can try to strike a balance between nature and his/her needs, let’s see the top 10 ways of maintaining a regular sustainable beauty routine.
1. Avoid the Use of a Hairdryer
A hairdryer not only consumes electricity, but its usage is also not good for the health of the hair. The best way to dry hair is to squeeze out the excess water with the help of a towel and let the hair dry naturally.
2. Use Cold Wax Instead of Hot Wax
Waxing is a popular method to remove unwanted hair from the skin. But mostly, we use the hot waxing method without realizing that the cold waxing method also serves the same purpose and that too without consuming electricity. The best thing about using the cold waxing method is that it is time-saving as there is no need to heat the wax before applying it.
3. Opt for Natural Options (Rather than Artificial Products)
Wherever possible, use natural ingredients which are available in our kitchen for maintaining and following the beauty routine right from the face wash to the moisturizer. Not only it is good for the environment, but it is also rewarding for our skin. Natural options save us from any adverse side effects too.
4. Minimal Use (Is the Best Policy)
Minimal use of beauty products is an incredible way to maintain a balance between nature and our requirement. Most importantly, it also saves our money from buying unnecessary stuff. Be natural yourself and only use beauty products when you feel their need the most.
5. Go for Eco-Friendly Packaging Products
Prefer to use beauty products with paper packaging or glass container packaging.
6. Use Cold Water (Instead of Hot Water)
Coldwater is very good for skin and hair as it acts as a natural toner for the skin by tightening the pores. Whereas hot water drains out the natural oil from the skin.
7. Recycle Container
Recycle and reuse the beauty product container so that we make the most of the resources that we already have by reusing them.
8. Use Products with Natural Ingredients
Use products with natural ingredients so that they are not harmful to our skin and the environment.
9. Avoid Using Face Wipes
Face wipes clog the pores and are responsible for acne generation. Plus, they are also not good for the environment.
10. Go for a Brand That Contributes Back to Nature
Prefer products from a beauty brand that contribute some percent of their profit back to nature. This also gives us a feeling of accomplishment that we are also contributing a bit towards the welfare of the environment.
