At Sol de Janeiro, we know that sustainability is a journey—not a destination. And, we all have a role to play.
That’s why we’re switching things up from concept to cart. This includes developing all plastic packaging to be reusable, recyclable, recoverable and/or made with renewable materials* alongside introducing new, plastic saving refills.
Our innovative refills allow us to reduce excess single-use plastic usage without compromising the formula you love so much. Each Sol de Janeiro refill offers the exact same amount of product, but with up to 89% less plastic packaging compared to a non-refill option.
Below, we breakdown how much plastic packaging each refill saves—and its 8oz plastic bottle (or straw) equivalent.
Brazilian Bum Bum Cream Refill is 89% less plastic packaging than the original jar. That’s equivalent to 8 water bottles or 203 plastic straws.
SOL Sustainability Fact:
Buying two refills annually saves 24 water bottles worth of plastic.

And this is only the beginning. Because as we grow, our responsibility does, too. Our commitment to sustainability will evolve to replenish the world around us. Join us!
