As Earth Month comes to an end, we’re highlighting some sustainable beauty brands that are always working to make their products the best they can be—for us and our planet—during April and beyond.
Axiology
All of Axiology’s products—including the bestselling multi-use Lip-to-Lid Balmies—are vegan, cruelty-free, and handmade in the USA. Plus, Axiology works with a cooperative of Balinese women who use trash found throughout the island, and transform it into 100% recyclable packaging.
Youth To The People
Glass bottles and jars are just one of the ways California-based skincare company, Youth To The People, is helping reduce their impact on the planet. As a brand, it has donated $1 million to nonprofit organizations in the climate space that work to safeguard wild spaces and biological diversity. And by 2025, Youth To The People is committing to a 25% energy reduction across all operations.
Kjaer Weis
Packaging with purpose is a cornerstone of Kjaer Weiss. Its signature Iconic Edition case is made from zamac, an alloy of metals that will last forever, and can be refilled over and over which helps to reduce landfill waste and the need for single-use products.
Tata Harper
Tata Harper products are ethically sourced, cruelty free, and responsibly made. As a brand, Tata Harper formulates, batches, fills, packages, ships, and distributes everything itself. This allows not only for higher quality products, but also for a lower carbon footprint, less waste, and better sourcing of natural, organic materials.
U Beauty
The multi-award-winning skincare brand isn’t just great at delivering science-backed formulas that are proven to work. It’s great at working for the environment too. All of U Beauty’s products are manufactured in a CO2-free facility that uses green energy to keep the lights on. And for every individual order made through the website, U Beauty donates $1 to One Tree Planted, to aid in reforestation efforts.
