Sustainable Materials In Skincare: Let’s Talk About Plastic!

Happy New Year to all our loyal and new readers!
We still can’t quite wrap our heads around the fact that 2020 came upon us so quickly, but we are excited to officially be in the New Year and look at the year ahead as a blank canvas ready to be filled with exciting adventures and new opportunities.
