It is unclear how long their sheet mask takes to decompose as waste (under normal conditions)*****

It should be noted that their hairsprays are in aerosol cans. These can have propellants containing hydrocarbons which contribute to global warming.
CFC-free aerosols too emit the volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which affect the ozone and the environment.

*unclear if this is non nano/ we have asked the brand for further information

*****Zoobop recommends using eco-friendly masks instead of single sheet masks.
There is not enough data on waste from single use sheet masks yet but numbers can be similar to that of single use make up wipes that are thrown away by the millions every day. These can take hundreds of years to break down in a landfill.

Brand uses plastic for products packgaing.
Brand uses 50% PCR plastic and is committing to going 100% PCR soon. Which is great news!
TerraCycle® and Garnier® have partnered to create a free recycling program for all brands of skin care, hair care, and cosmetic packaging.
However, it must be noted that this is not being done globally. In developing and third world countries all waste & plastic ends up in landfills.

We are unclear on the recycle policy / decompose time of their single use sheet masks - we have asked the brand for more clarity on this*.
