We are always striving to keep sustainability at the core of everything we do...
WE SAY ''NO'' TO OVERCONSUMPTION
”At Beauty Cleanse Skincare, we believe that sustainability isn’t just about one part of product’s life cycle. It’s also not about associating yourself with one trending buzzword (such as waterless, zero-waste or plastic-free) and doing more harm than good in other areas of operations.
A real sustainable solution is in minimising waste at all stages of product’s life cycle, and creating products that promote slow and conscious consumption.
Because, we believe CONSUMERISM is not Sustainable!
Product's Lifecycle
In terms of the product’s lifecycle, there are 3 important areas which we believe could be massively responsible for leaving a negative impact on our environment.
PACKAGING
CHOICE OF SUPPLIERS
INGREDIENTS
Below are some of the steps we’re currently taking in these areas to play our part
- Our 100% Natural Ingredients are sourced from British-owned family heritage businesses who keep their practises ethical & transparent. They are committed to travel around the world to select the highest quality ingredients that also support farming communities & families around the globe
- All our other ingredients (including upcycled) are sourced from reputable UK-based suppliers with fully traceable supply chains
- We source, manufacture and select our suppliers ethically. We have zero tolerance to unfair practises across our supply chains. Our suppliers are always striving to reduce their own waste going to landfill and minimise their overall footprint
- We are a 100% made in UK. We test, formulate and package our products in Britain - constantly benefiting our local economy
- We use either 100% recyclable GLASS or 100% PCR materials (Post-Consumer Recycled Waste) - constantly diverting waste from landfills & having zero dependence on use of fossil fuels and virgin raw materials
- We eliminate unnecessary paperwork & therefore, do not send any paper receipts or additional brochures in our parcels
- Our packaging boxes are 100% recyclable and made from FSC certified materials
- We use 100% Biodegradable packing chips and tapes to pack our orders. They completely biodegrade after one or two uses
- At the moment, our pumps and droppers are not recyclable in domestic recycling but can be recycled if returned to TerraCycle. Click HERE.
- Our sourcing materials incorporate circular economy approach - always minimising waste & excess consumption in every stage of product's lifecycle
- All our products are 100% Natural, Vegan and Cruelty free. However, we never say ‘Natural’ is always the best. We define natural as ‘naturally-occurring plants, seeds and floral extracts’, or ‘ingredients derived from nature, or nature identical solutions which promises safety and sustainability
- We always work with multibeneficial ingredients to create innovate formulations that can help blur excessive product categories. This is our way of designing products that help minimise waste & encourage conscious consumerism
- We give leftover seeds a new lease of life by collecting them from local food and juicing suppliers and cold press them to produce unique antioxidant rich oils for our skincare formulations. By doing so, we are utilising raw materials that would otherwise be disposed of - ultimately minimising both food waste and air pollution
- Our products are handmade from a combination of Cold-pressed organic and inorganic oils. Cold-pressing is one of the most effective oil extraction method that does not involve any heat or chemicals. This process is generally more climate-conscious than general oil extraction, as it uses less energy & do not release toxic chemicals in the environment
