Sustainable Beauty

How sustainable is your beauty routine? More of us than ever are opting to make conscious choices when stocking our bathrooms and makeup bags, but defining sustainability isn’t so simple. There are many pieces to the complex sustainability puzzle and the term itself has come to mean multiple things.

In short, it is all about creating products that leave less of a trace and have a positive impact on the planet and its people. However, when you look a little closer there are many different aspects to consider, from sourcing ingredients and manufacturing to packaging and company culture.

As sustainability becomes increasingly on-trend, buzzwords are being thrown about freely. There’s an overwhelming amount of jargon and it’s hard to know what a lot of it means in practice.

Luckily, there are some key phrases to look out for and understanding their meaning makes it even easier to identify which brands and products align with your own sustainability values.
