Your beauty routine might be full of plastic you didn’t even notice—like lipstick tubes, lip balm containers, and lotion bottles. And did you know that most of it can’t be recycled?
But here’s the good news: choosing plastic-free versions (like paper or glass packaging) makes a real impact. If just 10% of Saint Paul made the switch, we’d keep over 288 pounds of plastic out of landfills every year!
Mother's Day Give Back
NOW through Mother's Day: Buy any nail polish, lipstick, or lotion and we'll donate $1 to the YMCA!
Why? Because community care is sustainability in action.
The YMCA supports families in our neighborhood, creating stronger connections that help us all thrive—just like our planet thrives when we take care of it together.
