That empty mascara tube you're about to toss? It deserves a second life. We're excited to introduce Elate Essential Mascara Refills — say goodbye to excess waste and hello to a more eco-friendly, cost-effective beauty ritual. 

Created for even the most sensitive eyes, this water- and sweat-resistant formula helps your mascara stay put, even when you're on the go.

How It Works

Refilling your Essential Mascara is as easy as 1-2-3:

• Step 1: Remove your current wand from your empty mascara tube. Wash it thoroughly with hot water and soap until all excess product is removed, then spray with isopropyl alcohol to sanitize. Make sure the brush has dried completely before reuse.
• Step 2: Once your wand is clean and dry, unscrew the cap of your Essential Mascara refill.
• Step 3: Carefully insert your clean, dry wand into the refill tube.

That's it! You've just added a new mascara to your routine without bringing in any excess packaging.

How To Clean Your Old Tube for Responsible Recycling

• Step 1: Remove the black rubber wiper from the top of the mascara tube. It's a snug fit but comes out easily with a little force.
• Step 2: Use warm water, soap, and a reusable straw cleaning brush to scrub excess mascara from the tube.
• Step 3: Responsibly recycle your clean glass tube in your household recycling or through our recycling program.

By refilling your Essential Mascara and recycling responsibly, you're contributing to a more sustainable beauty routine. It's not just about looking great — it's about feeling great knowing you're making a positive impact on the environment.
