What a cool post for Indigo Sunday, and after recently seeing some of the statistics about plastics and the amount of waste that comes from it I have started ot try using fewer plastics I now have shopping bags in the car made from recycled materials, and try not to use single-use plastics but i had not thought of shampoos and conditioner i will be on the look out for somehting similar here ;)
Yep it is a global issue that we can all do our bit to reduce. I started the same as you by just getting some proper shopping bags and leaving them in the car.
I have started [to] try using fewer plastics I now have shopping bags in the car made from recycled materials
The more I thought about it and looked around the house the more I knew there was much more that I could do. We are targeting the low hanging fruit and quick fixes like the soaps above. Easy to change things are at least a start.
So true mate, every day that we reduce our use/dependance on these plastics the faster the manufacturers will jump onboard. Governments have never been so useless as now.

Very interesting sir molometer! I didn't know that SLS was made from the the palm tree. That's a simple but powerful move that everyone can make.
The reporting about the ocean pollution that I've seen is alarming!

Sadly I dont think the big players and governments are doing enough but if we all do our little bit we can make a huge difference

Yes we can turn the tide if we all do our bit
