However, there are still several ways to ensure the plastic microbeads do not end up in the ocean!
1. Call the manufacturer to find out if they accept returns. Make sure to ask how the manufacturers
are planning to dispose of the microbeads. Many companies will reimburse you for the product
and some offer coupons for their other products for the return.
2. However, if you can't pay the shipping costs, the next best thing to do is send it to the landfills in a
tightly sealed container. Please do not flush the microbeads
down the toilet or dump it down the sink!
