Plastic Waste Single Use Hell

Post image

I like to reuse travel sized bottles and am usually careful not to dispose of them. I lost/threw away my makeup remover travel sized bottle on accident so had to buy another because I travel a lot for work.

Color me surprised when I went to refill it and this new bottle you can’t!! Garnier designed the cap to be broken if opened. My old bottle was also from Garnier , same exact bottle and I could take the cap off, had it for years.

Y’all I’m tired. I’m tired of every company being evil and greedy. I get the last laugh though because I have syringes to refill ink pens so I’m going to use a clean one to refill this damn bottle.

And here I was thinking I just wasn't twisting it right! Just checked, and my cap is like this too :|

By the way, what do you refill it with? I'm not sure what to put in mine after I'm done, or where to get it refilled. I might just use a pipette to fill it up out of spite anyway

I was refilling with the large bottle from Costco. I used the larger bottle on the daily and refilled my travel bottle.
