Photo of a box of compostable packing peanuts and skincare products in their own compostable packaging. Text overlay reads: "Unpacking new products for the holiday/exfoliation season is fun, but it can create a lot of waste. I work with companies and materials that are compostable and recycled whenever possible. Also, check out these packing peanuts that are made of plants!"

Photo of a box of eco-friendly shipping materials, containing a compostable bag of compostable packing peanuts, cardboard tubes for shipping, and newspaper. Text overlay reads: "• I started a compost bin at my studio to cut down on landfill trash. • I work with a skincare brand that uses recycled, recyclable, and/or reusable packaging in compostable boxes. • I am always looking for more planet-mindful alternatives to disposables l use in facials, like using warm towels instead of cotton rounds!"

Shelves with skincare products, including retail on the top and middle shelves and back bar (used in professional facials) products on the bottom shelf. The boxes of retail products are a warm, natural beige color, with black writing on them to name and describe each product. Some of the boxes have shiny silver or gold labels on them. The bottles on the bottom shelf are made of a satin finish aluminum, with matching beige labels. The shelves look orderly and organized.

I love growing my skincare biz, and I just added new products to my offerings! I'm now also including gentle chemical peel facials and more retail options. But with a new shipment, packaging adds up! Check out my efforts to keep my business gentle on the planet🌎 #ecofriendlyskincare #SimiValleySpa
