Sustainability and eco-friendly beauty products aren’t just a passing trend. As the beauty industry’s environmental footprint is increasingly scrutinized, there’s an ever-increasing pressure to opt for sustainable beauty brands that use eco-friendly cosmetic packaging. Fortunately, St.Tropez is here to make your tanning regime more environmentally sound.
Why eco-friendly cosmetic packaging matters
From non-recyclable plastic packaging to harmful chemicals in formulas, the beauty industry has recently come under fire for using materials that are negatively affecting our environment.
In 2018, Zero Waste reported that more than 120 billion units of packaging are produced in the global cosmetics industry every year. Non-recyclable plastics are among the biggest concerns.
Consequently, it’s our industry’s responsibility to take immediate action – and we are working hard to play our part. We’ve made it our mission to house our tanning products in eco-friendly cosmetic packaging, using recyclable bottles made of recycled plastic.
Are St.Tropez bottles recyclable?
