Our sustainability metrics for ingredients are among the highest in the industry.
We examine our sustainable skincare ingredients from a holistic perspective, taking into account not just where the herb, fruit, plant, or element is sourced, but how it is grown and harvested – and by who.
Approximately 32% of our facial skincare range uses a minimum of 71% organic skincare ingredients. These have been grown free from pesticides and chemicals, via toxin-free production methods that preserve the health of soil and the environment.
We’re proud that we can trace every one of our ingredients to its source. Now, we’re working on making this information transparent on our website. Watch this space.
