Urine was collected in the imaginatively named Urine Collection Device and looked something like a condom. It was then passed through a tube and vented into space, apparently looking quite spectacular if the sun happened to be rising or setting!
Solid waste was sealed in a double bag which contained germicide and was returned to earth. The whole procedure took much longer than it does on earth, as well as the difficulty in making sure various waste particles did not escape into the cramped cabin you shared with two other men. (On Apollo 8, the Commander had the misfortune to have a stomach upset, much to the distress of all three astronauts.)
During the time on the lunar surface, special 'nappies' were worn to catch waste.
