Do you feel overwhelmed by the amount of single use plastic that has taken over your skincare routine? And at the same time believe it’s just too hard to maintain a zero waste bathroom? With just a few simple ingredients and instructions, you can make clean and green beauty products from scratch!
Nod your head if any of the following statements describe how you’re feeling right now:
You want to look your best. You want glowing, clear skin that looks amazing, with or without makeup. And you just love to pamper yourself. Spending time in your bathroom is like an affordable mini spa day retreat for you.
But … (yep, there’s a but. I bet you kind of saw that one coming, hey?)
When you look at all those single use plastic product containers stacked up in you bathroom, your heart sinks. Because you don’t just want to look pretty.
Make Your Own Skincare Products

You also want to live on a beautiful planet. With lush green trees, breathing in clean air. And you know it’s not up to others to make that happen.
The change is you.
You can make that happen. Not by being perfect, but by actively making conscious choices every time you buy something new.
Homemade Essentials for a Zero Waste Bathroom
If any of this sounds like you so far, it seems like we would vibe really well. Maybe it’s time I introduce myself properly.
Hi, my name is Ina. And I’m far from perfect.
But I am making a conscious effort to clean out my skincare routine and replace every day items with clean beauty essentials. And since I’m a frugal DIY lover, I also like to make those products myself.
By making my own skincare products I know exactly what goes into the beauty items I make. And at the same time I can customize them to make sure my skin gets what it needs while keeping the cost low.

On this website I share new DIY tutorials and articles about transforming your bathroom (and the rest of your life!) into a zero waste, clean beauty haven.
