Through May 10th, Aveda will accept plastic caps from bottles of water, facial cleansers, laundry detergent, etc. Since you usually recycle the container and toss the cap, these caps end up in landfills, or worse, the ocean. That's where they can end up in the mouths of babes - as in baby sea animals, causing them to choke or die of malnutrition from a belly full of plastic. Bring in 25 or more caps and you'll receive a free sample from Aveda's hair or body-care lines (limit one per person - remember, you're giving to be happy!)
