**unclear if this is asbestos free / we have asked brand for more information
***not clear if this is water soluble or a micro plastic, we have asked the brand for clarity

Brand uses glass & plastic, metals 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.

Though brand claims to be cruelty free, they do not have a strong cruelty free policy.
Being cruelty free needs to be a brand commitment. it is not about adding a logo on product labels

Some products contain Beeswax, Hydrolyzed Elastin, Collagen~, Urea~, Allantoin~, Glycerin~, Stearic Acid~, Sodium Lactate~, P.E.G 10~
Brand has vegan options**

~can be plant/ animal/ synthetic derived
**users are advised to always check product labels for full ingredient content.

Some products do not mention complete ingredients.
Brand needs to clearly indicate transparency in sourcing of ingredients like Palm Oil (derivatives)
