Now you can bring your empty cosmetic tubes, bottles and jars, etc. -- regardless of brand -- to your nearest Origins retail store or department store counter nationwide to be recycled or used for energy recovery. This is a fantastic way to recycle products that most recycling companies won't accept.
Plus when you recycle at Origins, you'll receive a FREE sample of your choice of one of Origins' high-performance skincare products! Sounds like a win for everyone to me.

This is just the most fantastic post!!!!! Thank you so much. I will post on my blog too. I just threw away a powder compact this morning because I did not know where to recycle it... you are awesome!!!!
Can you donate perfume bottles?
Please, I hope the free samples are in eco-friendly packaging.
See company Organic Essence. I shop from them now, instead of Burt's Bees and other companies, as their packaging is as pure and eco- friendly the actual product.
Can't bring myself to buy many plastics knowing about the 5 Gyres now in our oceans...Origins: consumers are smart and are catching on that even recycled plastics are just a lesser evil. Could you please look into Bio degradable packaging?
