recycle material

Brand uses plastics, glass and metal for most product packaging.
We have asked them for further clarity on their recycling policies and plastic PCR 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.
