Refill Emporium : Zero Waste & Refill Shop — Local services in Saint Clair Shores

I had never heard of this store until my cousin won a bath salt making party here through the SCS library's summer reading program. Before the party, my cousin and I met with one of the owners, Whitney, at the shop to pick out scents we would like to have available for our guests on the day of our party to make personalized bath salt gifts with. I personally am allergic to SO MANY THINGS (the list is long) and was concerned that I might not be able to participate, but Whitney was so understanding and accommodating. She was able to make me my own scents for the party that didn't have anything I was allergic to. She was also very friendly, explaining what we should expect at the party and also about their store. When we came back for the party, it was on a Sunday at a time that the store was closed so we had the place to ourselves. Whitney was so helpful and we all had a great time (way more fun than I expected) personalizing our bath salt gifts. We were also able to shop the store, and I purchase some soap and bubble bath, both of which were also with very basic ingredients for my sensitive skin. Whitney even advised me that she could try to order me items in different scents if I was interested and offered me a wholesale discount if I purchased larger quantities. So far I love the soaps that I purchased. I will definitely be returning to this store for more items. I love the mission statement of the store, to reduce plastic waste and offer eco-friendly options. They also take in other types of items for recycling as well. The owners really care about their customers and the environment. They do not pressure you into buying anything and are so patient and caring. I cannot recommend this...

Cant say enough good things about this place. This was the closest refill shop to me and I had never ever been anywhere like this before so I decided to take a shot in the dark and try something new.

I saved all my jars for a week then brought them with me! Wasn’t sure what to expect but I was warmly greeted when I entered by Whitney and Shannon and they took the time to explain how everything worked to me and then continued chatting and helping me the whole time I was here and gave honest answers to all my questions!

I also placed an order to have napkins custom made by Shannon. They brought out all the fabric to me and let me pick exactly what I wanted and then she ended up finishing them that day!! Just picked them up today and they’re beautiful and I will definitely be ordering from her again.

I can’t recommend this place enough and I keep telling all my friends and family to come here. They also take recycling for things you can’t typically...
