In terms of the choice of ingredients, many companies have opted for raw materials selected as organic, meaning they have been grown and harvested in a way that is respectful of the environment and local communities.

The choice of packaging is also important, as more and more companies are looking for packaging made from materials that can be recycled or reused. Now, some ig database companies are also looking for packaging that consumes less energy in its production or that is produced using renewable energy.

When it comes to product composition, many companies are opting for a formula that has less environmental impact, that is, one that has fewer contaminants or toxicities.

This change in the behaviour of the cosmetics industry is largely due to pressure from consumers themselves or from organisations demanding that companies adopt a more sustainable stance.

Ethel Eljarrat, a researcher at the Institute for Environmental Diagnostics and Water Studies, told Vogue that “we need to pay attention to the presence of microplastics (they appear mainly in toothpastes and soaps) in the formula.”

For a brand to be considered sustainable, the company must take into account many factors. For example, the consumption of water and energy during the process, the choice of packaging materials, the distribution chain, the formula, etc.

The industry has been investing in research to find alternatives that can be efficient for the population, but that also provide care for the health of the planet.
