Unwrapped Life Honors Earth Month with “The Healer” Limited-Edition Hair Bars, in Partnership with Plastic Bank®

Together with Plastic Bank®, Unwrapped Life is on a mission to prevent over
2.5 million plastic bottles from entering our oceans.

This year, in honor of Earth Day Unwrapped Life, the plastic-free beauty brand providing zero-waste alternatives for everyday products, is partnering with Plastic Bank® to keep plastic out of our oceans!

During the month of April, their goal is to prevent over 2.5 million plastic bottles from entering the ocean and with the launch of “The Healer”, limited-edition shampoo + conditioner bars, they will do just that –every purchase of The Healer prevents 1,000 plastic bottles from entering the ocean. This new partnership strengthens Unwrapped Life’s commitment to helping eliminate Earth’s plastic pollution with the support of Plastic Bank®’s extensive global network of micro recycling markets. By building ethical recycling ecosystems in coastal communities, Plastic Bank® works to improve the lives of collector communities and reintroduce plastic waste into manufacturing supply chains.

“Every April, Earth Day inspires us to reflect, learn, and reignite our commitment to reducing the plastic waste that is plaguing our planet, and effecting its most vulnerable inhabitants. The past year has faced us with many challenges, but what always remains is our unwavering devotion to making the world a better place for everybody, everywhere.”
– Arden Teasdale, CEO
