Retail giant Woolworths has revealed its new lipstick range that is packaged in paper and bamboo tubes.
In 2018, Woolworths committed to moving away from single-use plastic and reducing its plastic usage by this year. The company is not only helping the environment with this introduction but also ensuring that it’s staying ahead of beauty trends.
According to 702fm, the retailer announced the launch of two WBeauty lipstick ranges.
“Since announcing its vision for ZERO packaging waste to landfill, Woolworths has been leading the way with innovative packaging that is either reusable and/or recyclable,” said Woolworths.
Both the paper and bamboo lipstick tubes are recyclable. The tubes are Forest Steward Council® (FSC®) Mix certified. This means that not only are the products sourced responsibly but they do not contribute to deforestation.
“There is no better time to make key lifestyle choices to mitigate against the impact that each one of us has on our planet,” said Woolworths.
Meanwhile, it was reported that scores of mostly youngsters marched to Parliament today, 24 September, calling for policies to reduce climate change in the country. The #MarchforSystemChange forms part of the climate week in Cape Town that started at the beginning of the week. The protest was reportedly organised by the African Climate Alliance and supported by a number of other organisations.
Learners from three separate institutions joined in on the demonstration outside Parliament. Ground Up reports that activist Zipho Majova told those gathered outside Parliament that they wanted systematic change.
“For too long the rights and wellbeing of people and the planet have been sidelined for the purpose of creating wealth for a few,” Mojave said. Read the full story here.
