Yay—let's recycle! Here’s a quick guide for when you've finished using all your products:
1. Make the products 'recycle ready' by rinsing it out and cleaning it. What if the product doesn't work for me? Give it to someone who might like to try it! That way, you will minimise wastage and give the product a second home. ♡♡
2. Get the DETAILS! Typically, most skin care packaging is recyclable in Australia, but what can and can’t be recycled depends on where you live. A quick Google search will reveal a recycling guideline based on your state / territory.
3. Can I put this in my recycling bin? If you've checked and the answer is 'yes', give these items a second life and put them in the recycling bin. If it's not, look into enterprises like TerraCycle, to help you properly recycle your beauty products. If the product is recycable through TerraCycle, it is FREE and all you have to do is gather your empty products together, print a recycling label and ship it out - that’s it! They’ll take care of the rest for you.
FYI, recycling plants uses numbers ranging from 1 to 7 to help sort all the materials. PETE stands for Polyethylene Terephthalate and PP stands for Polypropylene — these are both plastics. PAP represents paper / mixed paper / cardboard. See Earth Easy to learn more about your plastics.
That's it babes! Remember to love our earth; love our planet! #dontbetrashy
Chances are, you would have first heard about AXIS-Y on TikTok after its Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum product went wildly viral! And now there's a cream to match. Enter the Dark Spot Correcting Glow Cream! It's designed to complement the serum and toner for a complete, anti-acne and anti-hyperpigmentation routine.
How does it compare to your favourite serum? Well, the Dark Spot Serum uses 5% niacinamide, papaya, rice bran extract and sea buckthorn to brighten without irritation sometimes associated with acid exfoliants or pure vitamin C. The cream on the other hand, uses 2% Alpha Arbutin, 5% niacinamide as well as a water-soluble form vitamin C. This type of vitamin C is a more stable derivative than its OG cousin, and gentler on sensitive skin. Plus, its concentration is less than 2%, so it shouldn't cause irritation.
The texture is like a lightweight, creamy gel, and feels incredibly hydrating without any greasiness. There's a hint of dewy in the finish, but it won't turn you into an oil-slick, either. Best of all, its key ingredients ensure that it really works in terms of fading acne scars and brightening your skin. We think it's a winner!
