Looking for the best zero waste face wash? Here are the top 5 zero waste face cleansers you should consider adding to your skincare routine!
Zero waste does not exist, especially in skincare. There is still a ways to go in terms of finding ways to maintain the efficacy of skincare products while not creating waste. This blog post will be highlighting products that are as zero waste as possible and will also be showing some amazing sustainable skincare companies. These companies focus heavily on where and how their ingredients are sourced and they all have recyclable or compostable packaging!
I recently completely revamped my skincare routine and I spent hours doing research and reading blogs like this one. I watched countless Youtube videos from dermatologists and skincare enthusiasts! I finally found a skincare routine that works for me and I hope these recommendations can help you on your journey to create your perfect personalized skincare routine too!
I also wanted to add that I am not a dermatologist. Use this list as inspiration for your skincare journey but always check with your health care professional when it comes to health stuff!

5. LUSH face cleanser
LUSH products have been a one-stop shop for zero wasters for years! Their products are made from natural ingredients, they give proceeds of their profit to various organizations, and best of all they have many “naked” products. They call the products that come in paper packaging naked!
They have a lot of zero waste face wash options to choose from but if you are looking for something that is not a bar this is where to go. In addition to face wash bars they also have a cleanser that comes in a recyclable tub.
Some other products they carry for your zero waste face routine:
- Zero waste face scrub
- Zero waste face moisturizer
- Zero waste face lotion
- Zero waste face cream
- Zero waste face toner
Check LUSH out! They are popular for a reason!
I also wanted to note that most of the face wash options on this list contain fragrances that can cause irritation if you have sensitive skin. Again, check with your dermatologist if you are concerned!
