Sustainable Skincare: Our Plastic-Free Promise
We believe your daily ritual shouldn't cost the earth. That is why we have swapped plastic for sustainable alternatives in every step of our process.
A big part of our sustainability effort is our packaging. We've received a fresh stock of our paper packaging for bestsellers like the Temple Mogra and Red Rose soaps, helping us move away from plastic.
About Our Eco-Friendly Promise
Switching to plastic-free packaging required us to rethink how we ship our soaps and mists. We now use aluminum bottles for our liquids and butter paper for our solid bars, which helps reduce waste significantly. Because our soaps are all-natural and lack synthetic preservatives, please store them in a cool, dry place to ensure they last their full 18-month shelf life.
Sustainability is not just a marketing term for us. It is the core of how we operate. When we started, we realized that the beauty industry relies heavily on single-use plastics that end up in landfills, and we decided to do things differently.
Why We Swapped Plastic
Plastic bottles are convenient, but they are an environmental disaster. By moving to solid bars, we eliminated the need for plastic shampoo bottles entirely. Our shampoo bars are concentrated, last longer than liquid alternatives, and are much easier to transport without the risk of leaks.
Our Packaging Materials
- Butter Paper & Paper Sleeves: For our soap bars, we use biodegradable butter paper wrapping. It protects the soap from moisture while remaining fully compostable.
- Aluminum Bottles: For our face mists and aloe gels, we prefer aluminum. It is infinitely recyclable, lightweight, and keeps the product protected from light and heat better than clear plastic.
The Reality of Zero-Waste
Living a low-waste lifestyle means being mindful. Since we don't use harsh synthetic hardeners, our soaps prefer to stay dry. If you leave them in a pool of water, they will dissolve faster. We recommend using a draining soap dish to help them last longer. We are constantly testing new ways to reduce our footprint, including sourcing more local raw materials to cut down on transportation emissions. Every change we make is an effort to stay true to our promise: good for your skin, better for the planet.
