5 Green gestures to adopt in your bathroom

The bathroom is often the resource room where we like to spend time. But are what we do in the bathroom or the products we use always good for the planet? Regardless, it's not too late to change your habits. TdeM offers you 5 green gestures to adopt in your bathroom.

1- Reduce packaging and move towards zero waste

Used for shower gels, shampoos, hand creams, and much more, packaging is undoubtedly a real scourge for the planet. What if the first green thing to do in your bathroom was to reduce it? Indeed, stop multiplying single-use packaging and choose refillable containers. For example, at TdeM, you'll find shampoos and cleansing gels packaged in 500 ml refillable bottles.

2- Choose 2-in-1 products

Body cream, hand cream—is it really necessary to use multiple products? These days, cosmetic product formulas have been enriched and reworked. In fact, many products offer multi-action formulas without losing their effectiveness. Choose a nourishing body and hand milk enriched with a moisturizing agent that you can apply to your entire body, rather than just one that will leave the skin on your hands dry

3- Use reusable cotton pads

Have you ever noticed how many cotton pads you throw in the trash to remove your makeup? Between applying your micellar water and that of your makeup remover, you throw away several cotton pads per day. Adopt a green gesture by using reusable cotton pads or towels. Very soft, they remove makeup just as well and rinse simply with water.

4- Turn off the water when not in use

Showering, brushing teeth—it's not uncommon for water to run when it's not necessary. Water is a commodity that's becoming scarce. To preserve the planet's resources, turn off the water when you're not using it. Additionally, installing a new showerhead with a drip stop or reducing the flow rate can also save you money.

5- Reduce the quantity of product used

Have you noticed how quickly you finish your shower gel, shampoo, or even cream? And yet, it's told on the back of the bottles: a small amount is enough. Using a larger amount isn't necessary. By limiting it, you'll be doing something green. Not convinced? Try it! bars of soap or solid shampoos and you will notice how long you use them.

Adopting green habits in your bathroom is much easier than you think. Reusing, refilling, reducing quantities, or turning off faucets when not in use. Small gestures that can make a big difference.
