"Why Do You Use Glass?" 🌿✨

At Cooper’s Cabin, every decision we make — from ingredient sourcing to packaging — is intentional. One question I often get asked is: “Why do you use glass jars and bottles instead of plastic? Plastic is so much cheaper!”

The answer is simple: your health matters, and so does our planet.

The Problem with Plastic 🚫

Plastic may be cheap and convenient, but it comes at a high cost. Most plastics are made with toxic chemicals like BPA, phthalates, and other hormone-disrupting compounds. These substances can leach into your skincare products — especially if the plastic is exposed to heat, sunlight, or repeated use.

That means when you put a product on your skin (or lips), you could also be applying trace amounts of chemicals you never intended to. Over time, this exposure can disrupt hormones, irritate skin, and contribute to bigger health concerns.

Why Glass is Safer 🌿💛

Glass, on the other hand, is non-toxic, stable, and protective. It doesn’t leach harmful chemicals, no matter how long you store your product. When you choose glass: ✔ Your skincare stays pure and effective ✔ No risk of hidden toxins sneaking into your routine ✔ The natural ingredients remain fresher, longer

For products like lip balms, serums, or body care made with organic oils and butters, this is especially important. Glass helps protect the integrity of those natural ingredients.

Better for You and the Planet 🌎

Plastic waste is one of the biggest environmental issues of our time. Millions of plastic bottles and jars end up in landfills and oceans every year, where they take hundreds of years to break down.

Glass, however, is infinitely recyclable. It can be reused again and again without losing quality. By choosing glass for my products, I’m reducing waste, lowering plastic pollution, and helping create a cleaner world for the future.

Return, Reuse, and Save ♻️💲

To make sustainability even easier, I offer a discount when you return your empty glass jars. Simply bring or send back your clean jar, and you’ll receive a reduced price on your next purchase of the same product.

It’s my way of saying thank you for helping us keep waste out of landfills — while giving your glass a new life.
