Best eco-friendly makeup brands-Top brands

Are you searching far and wide for best eco-friendly makeup brands?

I know I have been especially since I learn’t that the world on its own can’t reduce the negative impacts of deadly materials like plastic, on the environment without the help of us, humans that are causing it (don’t worry, I’m not blaming you).

Help can be as little as purchasing items such as makeup that are eco-friendly, for example buying packaging that are recyclable and that can be used again.Best eco-friendly makeup brands

For those of you who don’t know what eco-friendly means then why are you reading this! JK JOKING! you can carry on reading and learning.

Basically its produce that aren’t harmful to the environment. They try to help prevent pollution and other negative consequences on our world.

So below are a list of some of the brands that are at least trying to be more productive in helping the environment or are actually completely eco-friendly. WEEHEE! Let’s jump to it!

Axiology

We are going to start with a brand named axiology which unfortunately only sell lipsticks (not so unfortunately for those of you who are a big fan of lipsticks) at the moment.

They are a brand which sell bold, unique lipsticks and lip crayons with various beautiful colours.

How eco-friendly are they?

They are very eco-friendly. I would give them a 9/10. Their lipstick tubes as well as the packaging are recyclable. And that sure is going to help the planet. WOOHOO!

The lipsticks contain natural ingredients which surely will help keep your lips nice and soft as well as healthy. And guess what?

They are fragrance free, absolutely palm oil free, cruelty-free and vegan.Best eco-friendly makeup brands HURRAY for that!

Axiology are part of the peta program and not only that, but also donate a percent of their profits to the international orangutan foundation (auto correct nearly made me write orange foundation instead). AWWW! how thoughtful!

PHB ethical beauty

PHB ethical beauty sell a wide range of products including skin care, hair, body, makeup etc. But since this is about makeup I’ll discuss that.

Okay so their makeup range include everything from face, cheeks, and lips to eyes and brows. They also produce brushes and makeup removers. WOW! They haven’t excluded anything, have they?

Okay now actually about how eco-friendly they are. Most of their packaging are eco-friendly as they’re recyclable which includes materials like glass and aluminium.

Their packaging are also made from consumer recycled sources.

They are registered with peta and 20% of their profit gets donated to charities that then help animals and people’s lives around the world. I’ll give them a 9/10.

How eco-friendly are they?

Have you seen how beautiful the packaging is? You probably would think how can the packaging be that nice and eco-friendly! Let me tell you!

Their packaging can be reused again and again instead of going to waste as they are of high quality metal which means you just keep refilling.

Products like the lipsticks tube and the mascara wand are an example of some of the products that can be reused.

They also have an eco-friendly formula. Clever huh! I would give them an 8/10.

They even go as far as minimizing materials when it comes to ordering or shipping by using plastic free compostable satchels.

    I want to say that I am very lazy with makeup and know little about cosmetics. I thought that although cosmetics can make people look beautiful, they are harmful to the skin, let alone the environment.

    The products you introduced make me amazing. So eco-friendly are they. I have to spend more time to know more about it. Maybe I will be interested in makeup. Thanks.

      Cosmetics can be worn to enhance beauty, for fun as well as many other reason! Sometimes you just have to be a little cautious!

      Your welcome!

    Thank you for the information on eco-friendly makeup. Our family is vegetarian and finding products that are plant-based and eco-friendly can be a challenge. This article provides some welcome guidance that I can comfortably share with my daughters and our friends, too.

    I especially like the brands that are packaged in recyclable packaging. So many products are still sold in non-recyclable plastics, making it difficult for those of us trying to reduce overall waste.

    I appreciate the information and will be visiting these company sites the next time I’m purchasing makeup to compare. Thanks!

    • Sariyah

      It’s okay you are welcome! Thanks for the comment!

      I agree with what you said on non recyclable materials still being used largely, it’s a shame but change is coming for the better!

    Using eco-friendly makeup not only helps the environment but our skin health too. Also, many makeup brands have elaborate packaging to entice customers into buying. And I think the packaging itself costs more than the product. Not only do we need to encourage more people to buy makeup with recyclable packaging but also minimalist design. Recycle, Reuse, Reduce. For Mother Nature.
