Brazil’s natural beauty inspires us to do better for people and the planet. Sustainability isn’t a label we take lightly, and we’re actively doing the work to earn it. Follow us as we share our progress with honesty and transparency every step of the way.
BY 2030, WE AIM TO...
Create Mindful Formulas
- Seek out lower-impact materials, opportunities for nature-positive outcomes, and suppliers that align with our mission
- Improve the biodegradability of our rinse-off products to limit water pollution
Source Sustainable Packaging
- Integrate post-consumer recycled (PCR) materials into our packaging
- Source paper materials that are certified to the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) standards. FSC® is dedicated to the promotion of responsible forest management worldwide. #FSC-N004652
REDUCE OUR SCOPE 3 GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS
by 55% per pound of product we make. We'll achieve this in the following ways:
- Opting for ocean shipments instead of air for approximately 60x savings on carbon emissions
- Using reusable materials and furniture in events and in-store displays
- "Light weighting" our packaging (removing packaging that is not 100% necessary)
- Expanding our refill program
- Choosing PCR (post-consumer recycled) materials instead of new
- Work with partners who are aligned with our efforts.
- Results: Last year, we decreased our Scope 3 emissions by 11% in intensity, bringing our total emissions to 141,000 tons of CO2.
-
Rinse out your products and separate the components before recycling. Check your local recycling program for specific instructions.
-
Utilize recycling programs like Pact collection bins found at Sephora and Ulta.
(Pact recycles packaging parts that local services cannot, including pumps)
-
Restock your favorites with refills. They’re the products you love with far less waste.
Over the next five years, we plan to contribute a minimum of $5 million to the Sol de Janeiro Foundation.
We work to protect & restore areas of high biodiversity, supporting the advancement of sustainable, forest-based livelihoods and helping local communities thrive while keeping nature conserved. In these territories, Indigenous rights and voices are at the forefront of decision making.
We were founded to celebrate beauty and inspire confidence in everyone, but especially in women and girls. Unfortunately, far too many barriers still limit their potential today. We fund projects that provide women and girls with access to education, healthcare, and equal opportunities. It’s not only fair; it’s a more promising future for all.
