Giving up 'hauls' to shop responsibily.
There’s been numerous reasons why I’ve not written a post on here in such a long time! But the biggest one is, I literally don’t purchase enough clothes anymore to warrant a blog post. Not only have I switched to shop responsibly, but sustainably too and I’ve figured out what my ‘style’ is.
I do plan to return to blogging occasionally. But I just need to figure out if I want to go in a different niche direction or keep it varied. What’s your thoughts? Do you like a bit of outfits, home and days out posts. Or keep it to one niche?
Online Stores
ASOS of course had to be up here and number one. I only shop the ‘Responsible edit’. Or I carefully read what the material is made up of, opting for the many ‘recycled plastic bottle’ options they now have and sustainable cotton.
H&M, again the responsible/ sustainable section only.
Etsy for jewellery.
Dr Martens – Vegan selection
Cult Beauty – The Ordinary, Inkey List
Elf Cosmetics – Makeup and skincare
High street stores
The Body Shop – Makeup and skincare
Boots – Cruelty-free and or vegan makeup and skincare only – Unless prescription medication required
Superdrug – Superdrug own cruelty-free range and any other cruelty-free hair care and skin products
Like everything in life, things don’t always go to plan. So I try my very best to stick and shop responsible to a cruelty-free/vegan/vegetarian lifestyle. This often means I stand next to a product isle for several minutes as I google the product brands. But if my health requires me to take a medication that is non-cruelty free I do make this exception. I am only human, and try my best to leave as little less of a harmful footprint as I can with my tiny size 4 feet.
Be kind, seek happiness, be you.
As always, love from Charlee x
