It's good to know companies are working on this. It's frustrating to try to cut back on plastic as much as possible and be met with resistance at every turn. Beauty products are one area where it's incredibly difficult! I'd love to see more responsibility from manufacturers. I hate the idea of adding more plastic to the landfills, since so much of it can't be recycled. Thanks, Lewis!

I wonder why the cosmetics industry hasn't changed their mass use of plastics? Why create more eco friendly products and then just stick them in non-eco friendly packaging? That’s a good point.

Why create more eco friendly products and then just stick them in non-eco friendly packaging?
