Our commitment to sustainability

We believe part of taking care of our skin includes taking care of the environment.

From our ingredients to the manufacturing and packaging of our products, your health and that of the planet, is always at the front of mind. 

100% recyclable packaging

8 million tons of plastic is dumped into the oceans every year, killing our precious marine life. Our aim is to find a way to provide 100% recyclable and biodegradable packaging for our products to help reduce the amount of plastic that is ending up in our oceans. 

Our products are packaged in either glass, recyclable, sugar cane or PCR (recycled plastic) packaging that can also be recycled. We have created a Natural Zero Waste Deodorant that reduces landfill completely on a daily amenity we all use and we have gone to great lengths to ensure that the pouches that house our Bloom of Youth Infusion Mask are recyclable. 

Parts such as pumps, pipettes and caps can be taken to your nearest participating David Jones store to be recycled.


FSC certified packaging

FSC certification ensures that our packaging is sourced from responsibly and sustainably managed forests, that provide environmental, social and economic benefits. The FSC’s vision is that we can meet our current need for forest products (e.g. paper and timber), without compromising the health of our beautiful forests for future generations.

The FSC are striving to achieve this vision through a set of 10 principles that apply to FSC certified forests around the world. The principles include things such as respecting the rights of indigenous peoples to own and manage their lands, ensuring the biodiversity of forests is maintained, and that forests are CO2–neutral (meaning that no more trees are cut down than what the forest can manage to reproduce).

All of our outer cartons are made of FSC certified card and are also recyclable!


Biodegradable packing peanuts and recyclable mailer boxes.

Being environmentally friendly is important to us in every stage of the purchasing process! This includes how we package our goods to send them to you. Our mailer boxes are recyclable, and the packaging peanuts we use to protect your glass skincare bottles are biodegradable!

Our packing peanuts are made of a material known as Biofill which has been manufactured from renewable resources and is made of 100% natural starch making it compostable whilst being static, odour and dust free.

These packing peanuts dissolve completely in about 30 seconds when rinsed under water! Try it yourself! You will see the peanuts quickly disappear when water is applied to them.


Ocean friendly sunscreen

You would be familiar with the scary impact that conventional sunscreen ingredients are having on our coral and marine life. It is scary! A staggering 4-6 thousand tonnes of sunscreen enters our oceans and reefs every year. More than 60% of our coral reefs are being impacted by the high volume of chemicals contained in sunscreens, and the common sunscreen chemical Oxybenzone has been shown to cause coral bleaching. The coral isn’t the only thing being harmed by chemicals in sunscreen – fish, dolphins and other marine life are too.

Our blog post ‘The scary truth – your sunscreen may be killing the ocean and it’s marine life’ explores the other ways that traditional chemical sunscreens are affecting our oceans.

Our Basking Beauty Sunscreen is a physical sunscreen that contains micronised Zinc Oxide. This mineral effectively blocks ultra-violet rays and has not been linked to coral bleaching, nor has it been shown to cause harm to other marine life. Our natural, physical sunscreen formula is also certified reef-friendly, so you can be assured that it won’t cause harm to our precious marine life or oceans!


PETA certified vegan and cruelty-free products

Our certifications are a further guarantee that we will meet our promise to be good for you, and the planet! This means protecting the animals that we share our beautiful home with too.

Each year, more than 100 million animals are killed in US laboratories due to animal testing. Our vegan and cruelty-free PETA certifications mean that we do not conduct or commission any animal tests on ingredients, formulations, or finished products and that they pledge not to do so in the future! We also do not use any animal derived ingredients in our products, and are 100% vegan.


Pure, toxin-free ingredients lists

We take an ultra-pure stance to skincare and wellness.  Our ingredients go through a rigorous screening process, ensuring that they have a “food-grade” purity level and that they are not only highly-efficacious, but are good for you, and the planet.

Not only are we free of the usual nasties i.e. parabens, mineral oils, chemical sunscreens, propylene glycol, SLS, SLES, EDTAs and formaldehyde, we are also free from other endocrine disrupting and irritating ingredients including PEGs, silicones, phenoxyethanol, phthalates, synthetic fragrances, sodium benzoate and high-allergen essential oils.

Our glass packaging ensures our product purity is maintained with no harmful BPA, BPS or other endocrine disrupting chemicals leaching into our skincare formulations.

All products are also formulated to be non-irritating.

Our wellness products are plant based and blend traditional naturopathic herbs with
vitamins and minerals.

Our formulas are Australian certified toxin free and allergen free.
