Quick Answer
To use a refillable shampoo bottle, simply pump out the shampoo as usual; when it's empty, rinse the bottle, pour in a shampoo refill, and replace the pump. It's an easy switch that cuts plastic waste significantly.
Why Choose a Refillable Shampoo Bottle?
Switching to a refillable shampoo bottle is one of the simplest ways to reduce bathroom plastic. Instead of buying a new plastic pump bottle every time, you keep one durable glass container and refill it with shampoo refills. This cuts down on packaging waste and often saves money in the long run.
The main trade-off is that glass is heavier and more fragile than plastic, so it's not ideal for travel or for households with young children. But for everyday use at home, a sturdy glass bottle is a practical and eco-friendly choice.
Step-by-Step Refill Guide
- Empty the bottle: Use the shampoo until the bottle is completely empty. Avoid mixing old and new shampoo to prevent dilution or contamination. Check that the pump is empty by pressing it a few times over the sink.
- Rinse the bottle and pump: Rinse the inside of the bottle with warm water and also rinse the pump tube. Remove any residue to keep the new shampoo clean. Let the bottle and pump air-dry completely before refilling to avoid introducing water into the shampoo.
- Pour in the shampoo refill: Open your 400 mL shampoo refill and carefully pour it into the glass bottle. A funnel can help avoid spills. Do not overfill; leave a little space at the top so the pump can be reinserted without overflow.
- Reattach the pump and use: Screw the pump back on tightly. Pump a few times until shampoo flows, then use as you normally would. Store the bottle upright to prevent leaks and keep the pump clean.
