So Eco Makeup Brushes // Monomeer Lipstick
Hello Everyone! I know I have talked about this a bunch of times, or a thousand, but I still think it is pretty important, if you wear makeup that is. Essentially, makeup is a luxury and not something we need per se. However, I would like to argue that wearing makeup for me personally is related directly to feeling more secure and confident – honest talk. But feeling pretty should not compromise sustainability and plastic free living, which is why I don’t wear nail polish or use hair spray among other things.
Maybe you already know, but I make a lot of my own makeup. My bronzer, blush and foundation powder which I use everyday is homemade, and super easy as well. My mascara production has really been an experiment, but the last batch I made I am so happy about.

I store my makeup in the same tins 🙂 It looks so pretty! You say ‘I make a lot of my own makeup’ – so I’m wondering, what do you not (yet) make yourself then?
I have yet to experiment with homemade eyeliner and lipsticks of sorts 🙂
That’s amazing what you do! I’m glad making your own isn’t that difficult.
I have made your DIY mascara and it works amazingly well. For my visits to the sauna I have to take it off beforehand, but in normal every day situations it stays very well on the lashes.
Do you have a source for these tins? They do look lovely! I used a creme pot I washed out.
Thank you!
Hi Gitte!
Do you have any recommendations/ideas for sustainable nail polish? I know it cannot ever be Zero Waste but maybe there is something a little more eco friendly out there.
Thank you

There are organic and vegan polishes, but sadly not anything that is zero waste friendly, at least that has been my stance on it 🌿💚
