Petroleum is bad for the planet & you, brands using this ingredient need to use a conscious alternate.

***asbestos free
****not clear if this is water soluble or a micro plastic, we have asked the brand for clarity
*****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 use glass, metal & plastic for most of their product packaging.
We have asked them for further clarity on their recycling policies and plastic content.
Though Parent brand claims to be working towards recycling plastic, we find that they are equally responsible for contaminating the planet too.
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*.

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.

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.

Though brand is transparent with labelling, they need to clearly indicate transparency in sourcing of ingredients like Shea.

In 1912, Elizabeth Arden marched down Fifth Avenue in support of womens right to vote, and handed out red lipstick to suffragettes as a symbol of solidarity.
