Quick Tip – Ditch the (Disposible) Razor
56% of women use disposable razors, according to Gillette. 
Don’t do it! But just because you’re green doesn’t mean you have to stop shaving.
Here’s greener alternatives:
- Reusable (changing the blade is way less waste.) Preserve has an awesome version for men OR women – The handle’s made from 100% recycled materials, it can last a lifetime (you can purchase the blades here) and you can recycle the #5 handle at Whole foods or through Preserve’s Gimme 5 program.
- Use an energy-star efficient electric razor
- Sharpen blades with the Razor Saver
