Two sisters. One purpose. Better skin.
Zero Waste Simplified began with two sisters who believed skincare should be honest — natural soap, organic skincare, and natural hair care handcrafted in small batches with clean, plant-based ingredients, shipped plastic-free from Cleveland, OH to every US state.
Hi, we're the sisters behind Zero Waste Simplified. We didn't start out planning to build a business — we just wanted skincare that didn't make our own skin freak out.
For years, we struggled with sensitive skin — dryness, irritation, eczema flare-ups, and products that promised the world but delivered nothing but redness. We were tired of complicated labels, harsh chemicals, and wasteful packaging. So we decided to try something different. We researched. We tested. We learned everything we could about natural ingredients, plant-based oils, and how real skin responds to them.
We're not doctors or dermatologists — just two sisters who care deeply about what goes on our skin and what goes back into the planet. What started as a small experiment in our kitchen turned into something bigger than we ever expected. Friends and family began asking for our soaps. People with sensitive, oily, dry, and eczema-prone skin told us our products actually helped. That's when we realized: this wasn't just for us.
We believe skincare should be simple. It should feel good. It should be good for you — and good for the planet. Thank you for supporting our small business and our mission. We're so grateful you're here.
Brittany & Nik
The Sisters of Zero Waste Simplified
Make skincare simple again.
What began with two sisters searching for relief from sensitive skin has grown into a commitment to help others feel confident and cared for. Zero Waste Simplified exists to prove that skincare can be pure, effective, and environmentally responsible — small-batch, plant-based products that support sensitive, dry, oily, and eczema-prone skin, without harsh chemicals or wasteful packaging. We're here to empower people to choose better for themselves and for the planet.
Two sisters with one mission
Brittany
The Research-Driven Creator
Brittany has always been the one who asks why. Why do so many “natural” products still irritate the skin? Why are ingredient labels so complicated? Why isn’t skincare simple?
Her curiosity turned into late-night research sessions, ingredient testing, and learning the science behind plant-based skincare — how natural oils, butters, and botanicals support different skin types, from sensitive to oily to eczema-prone.
Brittany is the reason every product is thoughtfully formulated, backed by real research, and made with clean, honest ingredients. She’s not a doctor or dermatologist — she’s a problem-solver who refused to settle for products that didn’t work.
Nik
The Heart of the Brand
Nik is the creative soul who believes skincare should feel good, smell good, and do good — for people and the planet.
She’s the one who turned simple formulas into a full zero-waste mission: sustainable packaging, eco-friendly materials, and a brand that reflects kindness, simplicity, and responsibility.
Nik’s passion is why Zero Waste Simplified is more than skincare — it’s a lifestyle built around reducing waste, protecting the environment, and helping people feel confident in their skin.
Together, they built something bigger: every bar, every product, every batch made with clean ingredients, zero waste, real intention — and a whole lot of sisterly teamwork.
People don't need more products. They need better ingredients.
Growing up, both sisters struggled with sensitive skin — the kind that reacts to everything and trusts nothing. After years of trying products that promised results but delivered irritation, they realized something important: people don't need more products, they need better ingredients.
So they started researching. Late nights. Stacks of notes. Endless testing. Not because they wanted to start a business — but because they wanted relief. What they created surprised them: simple, all-natural, zero-waste soaps that actually made a difference.
Friends noticed. Family noticed. People with eczema, oily skin, dry skin, and sensitivity noticed. And suddenly, the sisters realized this wasn't just their solution — it was a solution for so many others. They're not doctors or dermatologists. They're two women who care enough to do things the right way.
Zero Waste Simplified isn't just a brand. It's a promise — to your skin, your health, and the world we all share.
