Recycle empty beauty packaging at your local Origins store
June 23, 2009
Shana, Bella Luccè’s shipping diva, brought this neat new program to my attention and I wanted to pass it on to fellow Buzz readers. It seems that Origins has started a new recycling program for your empty beauty packaging. You can return any beauty packaging from any brand to your local Origins store and they’ll forward it on to a central location for recycling. I love the idea; at Bella luccè, we’ve dreamed of something similar for years now. Unfortunately, as we are internet-based and not established as a nationwide storefront business, the fuel consumed by asking you to ship empty packaging back to us for recycling would offset any environmental benefit. So many thanks to Origins for stepping up to the plate and many thanks to Shana’s keen eye for discovering the program.
I realize the blog has been a bit quiet as of late, but such is the nature of the beast when you juggle both motherhood and running a business during summer months when your children cannot be shuttled off to school for 35 hours per week of silent, productive bliss. Fear not…I am on my way out of the country on a business trip and will post (hopefully) drop-dead gorgeous photos right here as soon as I arrive. That will be 3 planes, 36 hours and one 11-hour bus ride later, but I am on my way!
