Why Trust Us
Disclosure
To be a successful beauty brand today, products need to deliver on efficacy, make us feel great, ideally look pretty in our make up bag, and also tick the sustainable box, too. It’s a lot to ask but for many consumers, sustainability is the key issue, to ensure the industry doesn’t have a negative impact on the world around us. Here are the brands working their hardest to stay environmentally friendly…
Soaper Duper
Soaper Duper’s Body Wash bottles are made from 100 per cent PCR (post-consumer recycled) plastic. Since the brand launched at the end of 2016, they have saved more than eight tonnes of plastic.
OHNE
OHNE is a new organic tampon subscription service. It works towards helping girls in Zambia who struggle to gain access to period products and menstrual education. Products are made of 100 per cent organic cotton, certified by both the Soil Association and the Global Organic Textile Standard, and the cardboard applicators are biodegradable. Say goodbye to toxins and chemicals near your vagina.
