*****zoobop recommends using eco-friendly masks instead of single sheet masks.
There is not enough data on waste from single use sheet masks yet but numbers can be similar to that of single use make up wipes that are thrown away by the millions every day. These can take hundreds of years to break down in a landfill.

Brand uses plastic, metals for most product packaging.
In general, they use Polyethylene Terephinalate (PET, which has a PCR number of 1) or Polypropylene (PP, which has a PCR number of 5) in a variety
of their cosmetic packages, displays and appliances.
We are unclear on the recycle policy / decompose time of their single use sheet masks - we have asked the brand for more clarity on this*.

It should be noted, that most makeup plastics are difficult to recycle.
So it is always good when brands accept back their empties for sterilizing and recycling and when they offer refills.

It is equally important to note that, many harmful compounds found in nail polish are toxic to the environment, which is why it must not thrown out along with your regular trash.
