Plastic, which dominates the cosmetics industry, is a major problem because it takes hundreds of years to decompose. Estimates show that in the beauty and cosmetics industry alone, billions of individual pieces of plastic packaging are produced each year, and only a very small portion of it is actually recycled. The rest ends up in landfills or, even worse, in oceans and seas, causing tremendous damage to the marine ecosystem. Every year, <strong>more than<\/strong> <strong>8 million tons of plastic end up in the seas and oceans<\/strong>, threatening the lives of marine creatures, which often ingest plastic waste or become entangled in it.<\/p><p>The cosmetics we use every day can be a significant part of this problem \u2013 but also part of the solution. By switching to products with minimal, recyclable packaging and sustainable ingredients, we can drastically reduce the amount of waste we generate. Sustainability is not just a concept, but a way of life built on small, everyday choices, such as natural and <em>zero waste<\/em> cosmetic products. In this way, we not only take care of our skin but also of the planet we live on.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-baa0ade elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"baa0ade\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-5eacfe6\" data-id=\"5eacfe6\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bb03f89 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"bb03f89\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Kako_zero_waste_kozmetika_treba_da_izgleda_u_praksi\"><\/span>What should zero waste cosmetics look like in practice?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ead6193 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ead6193\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><em>Zero waste<\/em> The approach, also known as zero or minimal waste production, in cosmetics manufacturing involves careful selection of materials and production methods that minimize harmful environmental impact.
