Plastic is one of the most polarizing topics in sustainability today, and each year continues to reveal more about its

place in the beauty industry. Sustainability is a constantly evolving conversation and the rate at which cosmetic plastic bottle is produced, used and disposed of has

long outpaced the research, technology and innovation needed to understand the consequences of our actions, making it quite

challenging to gather data that’s specific to cosmetics. Yet, we do know that the volume of plastic which can accumulate

during the process of making a single product is sometimes staggering – if you make cosmetics products for-profit and are

looking to grow, hardly any brand is exempt from the presence of plastic.
