recycle material

Brand use glass & plastic, metal for products packaging
We have asked them for more information on their recycling policies and plastic content.

It should be noted, that most makeup plastics are difficult to recycle.
So it is always good when brands accept back their empties for sterilizing and recycling and when they offer refills.

Though Parent brand claims to be working towards recycling plastic, we find that they are equally responsible for contaminating the planet too.
Post-consumer collection of packaging components is not available in all areas where products are sold.
In developing and third world countries all waste & plastic ends up in landfills.

honesty

social service

Though brand is transparent with labelling and gives transparency in the supply chain for palm oil & mica, they need to clearly indicate transparency in sourcing of ingredients like Shea which can have fairtrade issues. Synthetic fragrance are known to contain a mix of various toxins - unless these are clearly and transparently mentioned as complete fragrance by the brand. Unfortunately very few brands give complete fragrance info as they consider this as proprietary information. When it comes to Synthetic fragrance this is tricky as they can be known pollutants in it. Many clean brands that may use synthetic fragrance choose to list them all so they can be honestly clean and transparent. In the case of this brand it is not clear if all Parfum ingredients are mentioned.
