Sustainability

score : 7.0/10

Packaging

Conscious Skincare's entrie range is packaged in either glass or aluminum (both forever recyclables). They offer a refill program to cut down on recurrent packaging waste, but refill sizes are packaged in plastic, though they are 100% PCR plastic, BPA-free, and recyclable. They also offer the option to order without plastic pumps, which is an easy way to cut down on unnecessary single-use waste.

Shipping packaging are 100% recycled and recyclable cardboard. All packaing tapes and labels are 100% biodegradable. The brand also claims they intend to move toward 100% biodegradable packaging in the future.

Material Sustainability

Conscious Skincare's forumulations are 100% mineral oil and palm oil free. Almost all natural ingredients are sourced from low-impact crops par some minor exceptions. Ingredients like Argan Oil, which can be unsustainable due to high demand, are certified organic and fair-trade.

The brand excludes most environmentally harmful preservatives, but there are some exceptions like phenoxyethanol, which is fossil fuel derived and persistent in water systems (we recommend potassium sorbate as a more sustainable alternative, which Conscious Skincare uses in many of their formulations). For certain coconut derived ingredients used by the brand, sustainability depends on farming practices, which aren't always clear.

Waste Management

Business Model

Non-toxicity

score : 10.0/10

Conscious Skincare's forumations are almost entirely 100% toxin-free. Only a few ingredients could potentially carry risk for especially sensitive individuals, but these include ingredients like Sodium Coco-Sulfate or Benzl Alcohol, which are still non-toxic.

Social Responsibility

score : 6.5/10

Conscious Skincare is certified vegan and cruelty-free, and contribute to at least one animal welfare charity. There is little to no information regarding fair labor practices or further community engagement. Some ingredients with potential fair labor risks are sourced from fair trade suppliers.
