RAW MATERIALS
We are passionate about sourcing raw materials responsibly, using renewable resources, reducing waste, and opting for eco-friendly packaging. You also play a crucial role by supporting brands with sustainable practices and being mindful of beauty product choices.
Many beauty products rely on ingredients derived from plants and trees, such as palm oil, shea butter, and essential oils. We have chosen to be palm oil free and do not use products containing palm oil.
Some raw materials require the use of pesticides, fertilizers, and other chemicals during cultivation or extraction. These substances can leach into soil and water, causing environmental contamination and adverse effects on ecosystems. This is not something we align with and have made specific selections to ensure our raw material manufacturing does not cause impact like this.
The extraction and processing of raw materials can generate significant amounts of waste and byproducts, which may be disposed of improperly, leading to pollution and environmental damage. Cold pressing is an extraction method that we rely on for our business and processing this way is more sustainable option.
Packaging waste for the beauty industry's extensive use of plastic and non-recyclable packaging can also contribute to environmental pollution and waste. We have partnered with a raw material supplier who uses recyclable packaging and prefer to purchase bulk materials recusing the number of units that need recycling.
