In a world that is focused on the consumer, it’s easy to see how wasteful and damaging we can be to our planet. One way that we can make our home a better place is to start with our everyday routines – and that includes our beauty. Here are some top sustainable beauty trends that you need to try.
La Bouche Rouge
Since its creation in 2017, La Bouche Rouge‘s mission has been to create the highest quality skincare and makeup while also taking care of the planet for generations to come. Their proprietary lab produces patented formulas with at least 60% active ingredients in both their face serums and their lipsticks. The French brand’s creation of its products involves eco-friendly practices, such as using solar power, geothermal heating, and other energy-conserving methods. You can shop this widely popular brand at Bergdorf Goodman and Neiman Marcus.
Clarins
Another French luxury beauty brand, Clarins has been focused on bringing clean and natural beauty to the consumer for over 70 years. The first cosmetics brand to ban the use of plastic bags, Clarins keeps the planet clean by reducing its emissions and keeping its ingredient lists minimal. They also have reduced their carbon footprint by utilizing maritime shipping, rather than air travel. You can shop Clarins at Bloomingdale’s and Bergdorf Goodman.
Lush
UK-based beauty brand Lush was founded in 1995 by 6 people with the vision of creating good value products that fit every need, so as not to be wasteful and let your products sit on the shelf and fade away. The brand also uses sourced products from vendors that produce materials with genuine benefits, removing synthetic preservatives and making cruelty-free. You can shop Lush on their website here or at Ulta.
Ilia
Ilia is a skincare-powered makeup brand that infuses active ingredients into their cosmetic products. To be sustainable, Ilia creates many multi-use products and uses recycled aluminum, glass, and responsibly sourced paper in their packaging. Their potent formulas thus make a makeup product that is clean, vibrant, and beautiful, while also being clean for the planet. You can shop Ilia on Amazon.
L’Occitane
Yet another French beauty brand, L’Occitane works with over 130 French farmers to ensure that their ingredients are of the highest quality and made as sustainably as possible. Using regional producers reduces the brand’s carbon footprint while also supporting local businesses, ensuring their respect for their country’s natural environment and biodiversity. You can shop L’Occitane on Amazon.
