There are many opportunities during Lent to reduce our plastic in the bathroom. Use soap in a bar or refill plastic dispensers instead of throwing the container away every time. Avoid products with microbeads which are often used as an exfoliant in soaps, body wash and toothpastes. Refuse any product with polyethylene listed as an ingredient. Choose large sizes of shampoo, conditioner etc, and avoid travel sizes.
