🌿 Zero-Waste Beauty: 5 Ways to Create a Plastic-Free Bathroom

by Jamie Shim

Build a Plastic-Free Bathroom: Start with a Shampoo Bar 💚

Have you ever stopped to think about how much plastic comes from your daily beauty routine? 🌍 From shampoo bottles to cleansers, the waste adds up faster than we realize. 🚿🧴 The good news: creating a plastic-free bathroom is easier than you might think — and the best place to start is with a simple shampoo bar. 💚✨


1) Shampoo Bars: The Beginning of Zero-Waste 💚

Plastic shampoo bottles are a major source of bathroom waste. Every year, billions of bottles are thrown away, and most never get properly recycled.
🌱 Shampoo bars solve the problem at its root:

  • No bottles: completely container-free
  • Concentrated: nourishing ingredients, no excess water
  • Travel-friendly: TSA approved, leak-proof, compact

Shampoo Bar vs. Liquid Shampoo


  • 🌍 Sustainability: Bars cut down plastic and wasted water.
  • 💰 Cost-effectiveness: One bar ≈ 2–3 liquid bottles.
  • 🛫 Convenience: Light, portable, and mess-free.

Bottom line: A shampoo bar isn’t just for washing your hair — it’s a smarter choice that protects both the planet and your wallet.

2) Choose Plastic-Free Cleansers 🧴

Daily cleansers can generate just as much waste. That’s why picking a plastic-free option matters. Our ERIGERON Yogurt Cleanser skips tubes and pumps with eco-conscious packaging — the perfect partner to your shampoo bar for a zero-waste duo.



3) Less Is More: Minimal Beauty 🌿

Clutter-free shelves, happier routines. Shampoo bars support scalp balance and hair health, making them ideal for minimal-beauty lovers.

4) Choose Sustainable Packaging 📦

Packaging sends a message. With birch wood cases and minimal wrapping, ERIGERON makes eco-living part of the experience from the very start.

5) Switch to Reusable Bathroom Accessories 🌸

Swap disposables like cotton pads or shower sponges for reusable versions. Once a shampoo bar becomes your routine’s centerpiece, these small changes come naturally.

🌍 Final Thoughts

The surest way to create a plastic-free bathroom is to start with a shampoo bar. Add a plastic-free cleanser, and you’ll have a routine that’s sustainable, simple, and beautiful.
Start with one small change today — your hair, skin, and the planet will thank you.
