How To Help The Planet With One Small Switch

In partnership with FFS Beauty

We recently had a FFS moment, and it’s not what you think! Yes, there’s the obvious meaning of FFS - and that might be what you crosses your mind when you realise just how easy it is to make a difference and help the planet with this one small switch - but what we’re talking about here is Fuss-Free Shaving. Because every once in a while a new product comes along that shakes things up and makes you stop and think about what you’re doing.

For most of us, it's the cost of razors and the quality of the shave that we think about when we’re choosing which products to buy. But there’s a third factor that we’re quite rightly considering more and more these days; the impact that our actions are having on the environment. And there’s a definite shift away from single use plastics and as we look for more sustainable alternatives for this small but important part of our everyday beauty regime.

The impact of disposable razors on the environment

It may shock you to hear that an estimated 2 billion disposable razors end up in landfill every year in the US - that’s 63 every single second. And they can take up to 100 years to biodegrade. And that’s just the impact of plastic waste from one small part of our lifestyle. Disposable razors also have a much higher carbon footprint than reusable razors. They are typically packaged using bulky plastic coverings, resulting in more fossil fuels being used to transport them and instead of just replacing the blades each one has a handle that is thrown away when the blade is used up.

By switching to a reusable razor, produced by a company that uses eco-friendly processes, we can all do our bit to create a more sustainable future for our planet.
