Happy Earth Day! On the holiday intended to create awareness for the environment, I thought I'd give a shout-out to a super cool, eco-friendly-in-more-ways-than-one skincare company: Brooklyn's own skinnyskinny.
skinnyskinny's product line, which includes soaps, body oils, bath salts, and lip balms, contains certified organic ingredients and is packaged with materials that are all recycled, reclaimed, sustainable, or biodegradable. And the company itself is 100% carbon-neutral.
But here's another thing I love about skinnyskinny: It makes these lovely organic bath salts that come packaged in pretty, cork-stopped glass bottles. At $34, they're not cheap. But they also sell "refill" packages that come in plain brown biodegradable coffee bags and start at $29 for a one-pound sack. The skinnyskinny folks actually encourage you to buy in bulk, find your own container, and reduce waste (not to mention shipping costs, if you're buying online.) I think that's pretty cool.
