Let’s be honest — the word “sustainability” can sound a little overwhelming. But it doesn’t have to mean a total lifestyle overhaul. Around here, we’re all about making life a little easier, a little brighter, and a lot more thoughtful and that includes how we care for the planet.

If you’re looking to make your daily routine a little more sustainable this year, here are a few simple (and actually do-able) changes that can make a big difference — especially in your shower or bath time.

We do a lot of small things every day like brushing our teeth, washing our face, lathering up in the shower. And all those small things? They add up. From the packaging we toss to the water we run, our daily routines have a footprint. But the good news? That means we’ve got the power to shrink it, too.

5 Simple Ways to Make Your Routine Sunnier and More Sustainable

1. Choose Recyclable Packaging
   This is a super easy one — just check the label! At Chance of Sunny, we use HDPE plastic, which is fully recyclable. Even better? We repurpose bottles that were made but never used by other companies. That way, we're not contributing to new plastic production.
2. Go for Multipurpose Products
   Less clutter, less waste. I’m a huge fan of products that do more than one thing — like a gentle oil that works as a moisturizer, massage oil, or bath soak. It cuts down on packaging and keeps your routine breezy.
3. Refill Instead of Replacing
   We’re working toward offering more refill options, and in the meantime, we’ve made our packaging with reusability in mind. Our pumps can be saved and reused, so you're not tossing them every time.
4. Choose Thoughtfully Sourced Ingredients
   Our ingredients are hand-selected, plant-based, and always gentle on sensitive skin (because I made this for my own family). But we also go the extra mile to source them responsibly — like our organic oils and Centella Asiatica extract.
5. Be Water Wise
   This one’s easy and free: just turn off the tap when you’re not actively using water, and try shorter showers when you can. It adds up — trust me.

At Chance of Sunny, sustainability isn’t a trend — it’s a part of how we create everything. I spent a lot of time debating glass vs. plastic (spoiler: I chose HDPE plastic because it’s lighter to ship and fully recyclable). We don’t pretend to be perfect, but we do promise to keep choosing better for your family, your skin, and the planet. You don’t need a whole new lifestyle, just a sunnier routine. Little choices matter, and when you choose products that are gentle, effective, and planet-friendly, you're doing something good every single day.
