World Oceans Day

Let’s talk microbeads! – Happy World Oceans Day

As we celebrate World Oceans Day, it’s crucial to address the harmful impact of plastic pollution on our marine ecosystems. At Linden Leaves, we stand against waste, harsh chemicals and excess plastic like microbeads.

We opt for sustainably sourced and locally made ingredients, easy to recycle packaging and send our products out with non-toxic pop starch! Together, let’s protect our oceans by reusing, recycling, and disposing of rubbish correctly.

Why do we say NO to Plastic Microbeads?

These microbeads are found in personal care products and are a threat to marine life and ecosystems. These tiny particles escape filtration systems, entering our waterways and ultimately contaminating our oceans. Fish and other marine creatures mistake microbeads for food, ingesting them and suffering health risks.

At Linden Leaves, we prioritise sustainability and are proud that none of our products contain plastic microbeads. We believe in harnessing nature’s power for effective skincare while minimising our environmental impact.

Try this natural alternative!
For a natural and eco-friendly exfoliator, we recommend creating your own body scrub using our Body Oil and sea salt.

Simply mix a small amount of our nourishing Body Oil with sea salt to create a luxurious and effective scrub that will leave your skin feeling silky smooth!

This DIY scrub not only helps to remove dead skin cells but also avoids the use of harmful plastic microbeads, ensuring a sustainable and enjoyable self care routine.

While avoiding plastic microbeads is a step in the right direction, it is equally important to adopt responsible waste disposal practices. By recycling and reusing whenever possible, we can reduce the amount of plastic waste ending up in our oceans. It is essential to educate ourselves and others about proper waste management!

Microbeads have negatively impacted our oceans and marine life. At Linden Leaves, we take pride in our commitment to sustainability and always think of our environment first! By using natural DIYs like our Body Oil and sea salt scrub, we can achieve radiant skin without harming the environment. Additionally, it is crucial to recognise the importance of responsible waste disposal and the role we play in keeping our oceans plastic-free.

Let’s continue to make a conscious effort to reduce, reuse, and recycle, ensuring a brighter and cleaner future for generations to come!
