A study by Zero Waste Europe found that the beauty sector generated over 142 billion units of packaging in 2018.
Most of this ends up in landfill or the ocean — out of sight, but not gone. Over time, it begins to break down, impacting wildlife and the environment around us.
What many people don’t realise is that plastic doesn’t simply disappear. Instead, it breaks apart into tiny fragments known as microplastics — often smaller than 5mm.
These particles find their way into our water, our food, and the wider ecosystem. They’re ingested by wildlife… and eventually, by us too.
It’s a quiet cycle — one that builds over time through everyday habits. Including the small, single-use items we reach for without thinking — like disposable skincare pads.
At Between Me & You, we believe skincare should feel good in every sense — not just on your skin, but in the choices you make each day. That’s why we created our reusable skincare companions. Ultra-soft, gentle pads designed to replace single-use alternatives — helping you reduce waste, without changing the way your routine feels.
No harsh scrubbing. No compromise. Just comfort you can come back to, again and again.
Because real change doesn’t have to be overwhelming. It can start with something simple — a small shift in your daily routine.
Skincare that feels softer. Slower. More intentional. A ritual you look forward to — one that cares for your skin, while being kinder to the world around you.
A simple question to consider:
Is plastic ever truly biodegradable?
