To help spread the word, encourage friends and family to also recycle in the bathroom and join the #empties conversation, participants can share a photo of their recycling bins on Twitter by tagging @garnierUSA and using #empties and #RRRSweepstakes. Photo: Courtesy

To make a positive impact on the planet, Garnier and DoSomething.org, the largest organization for young people and social change, have teamed up to launch Rinse, Recycle, Repeat, a national campaign and college campus competition to educate America’s youth about the importance of recycling beauty product #empties.

The goal of the campaign is to tap into the #empties social conversation and educate young people on the importance of bathroom recycling. The campaign will show them how recycling their beauty #empties can keep them out of landfills and be used to create green gardens within local communities.

To participate in the national Rinse, Recycle, Repeat campaign, individuals can:

1. Sign up online here, decorate a bathroom recycling bin and share a picture with DoSomething.org on the “Prove It” page online or by texting RINSE to 38383 to be entered to win a $5,000 scholarship.

2. Once the bin is filled with ten pounds of beauty #empties, participants can print a free shipping label to send their #empties to TerraCycle to be responsibly recycled.
