I Tried This DIY Pumpkin Face Mask and Loved the Results

October 22, 2021

Long gone are the days when pumpkin spice was something that just went in a pie. Now it's in our lattes, our cookies, even our Pringles (yes, it's true, Google it). So why not add it to our skincare regimen as well? Turns out, pumpkins aren't just ful ...

Hot girls consciously declutter their closets. 💁‍♀️

And by that I mean, we don’t drop a giant bag at Goodwill because a lot of those items go unsold, end up landfilled, or shipped to developing countries where they often become more of a burden than a “gift” to locals (more on that below).

➡️ So here are some more sustainable options:

1. Give away clothes in good condition to friends or on your local Buy Nothing Group 
2. Sell gently used clothes on apps like @Poshmark or @Depop (p.s I just posted some new stuff on my Poshmark if ya wanna check it out, link in b!0)

3. Upcycle or downcycle unusable clothes for your own use 
If you can’t do any of the above the landfill may be your best option (which I know is a hot take 😅)

I don’t love clothing recycling programs because many in store drop offs (like those at certain fast fashion retailers) only recycle a *very* small amount of the clothes put in their bins.

The rest is sent overseas to be resold at markets, like Kantamanto Market in Ghana where ~40% of clothes received are of such poor quality they’re deemed worthless and dumped in the landfill anyways.

(The article “Dead White Man’s Clothes” by Linton Besser goes very in depth into this if you’d like to learn more).

So, programs like For Day’s takeback bag program (which I get a lot of Q’s about) may be good to use every once in a while if you have some truly unwearable clothes to get rid of since some of it is put to good use.

But the priority should always be taking care of and using what you have. 💚
