Want to keep your house squeaky clean while helping the environment?

Well, consider making a stop at SOAP Refill Station on your next grocery trip. The store — 7441 Broadway, KCMO — is a local refill soap shop with products sold by weight. Its goal is to reduce single-use plastic waste. Customers can either bring in their own container, use a free container from the store’s bin, or buy a fresh one from the store before refilling.

Products on sale include hair care (shampoo + conditioner), body care (body lotion + essential oils), home products (dish soap + beeswax), and gifts (bath bombs + reuseable straws). The store also makes its own HOUSEbrand soaps and detergents, with the current line up and ingredient list on its website. Bulk discounts are available, with 10% off when you go over 24 oz. + 15% off when you go above a gallon.

If you want to take your cleaning to the next level, you can customize the products to your liking using essential oils or by simply mixing existing products. Add a stain remover to a household cleaning product, or sprinkle a drop of rose to your leave-in treatment. The world is your oyster. Plus, the store is equipped with friendly SOAPtenders who will answer any questions you may have.

The Oil Bar — which carries clean products such as essential oils, speciality skincare oils, and natural face cleansers — allows you to make your own wellness products. Serums, masks, and tonics can all be made according to your liking. Its menu makes the process smooth, listing the recommended products according to your skin type.

Also, a soap(er) cool achievement? The store recently hit 50,000 containers refilled at its store. Support a good cause with a shopping experience that can be done in three simple steps.
