Episode notes
Recycle Silicone Wrinkle Patches
- After using viral silicone wrinkle patches, recycle them through programs like TerraCycle to reduce landfill waste.
- Avoid simply discarding used patches to minimize environmental impact and support product recycling efforts.
Value of Fabric Recycling Services
- Many find fabric recycling services like Retold Recycling satisfying as they repurpose old clothes into useful materials.
- Not all recycling options are free, but they extend the life of used textiles beyond donation or disposal.
Be Careful With Laser Treatments
- Choose board-certified dermatologists or medical directors for laser treatments to reduce risks like hypopigmentation.
- Avoid cheap or unverified laser providers as side effects can be permanent and hard to treat.
