These materials include coffee grounds, olive oil wastes, and fruit peels. By maximizing the usage of natural resources, we can help reduce the cosmetic industry’s impact on ..read more

There’s a significant “premiumization” of what would normally be considered commodity products:  toothpaste (Aurezzi toothpaste & mouthwash $39 each), deodorants (LeLabo for $37) and household cleaning products.  Dr. Barbara Sturm, DedCool and Bath & Body Works are recent entries in this category. Unilever’s Dove just launched a collection of Plant Based Cleansing Bars in the premium space providing “a new standard for w ..read more

In this day and age, navigating what it means to be cruelty-free can be a daunting task for both companies and consumers alike. With so much misinformation circulating and no federal oversight into labelling requirements, companies can self-identify as being cruelty-free without having to substantiate their claims. And in turn, shoppers are inundated with renditions of cute bunnies on packaging allowing them to (in many cases) believe a product is free of animal testing, when in fact, there is no oversight on logos, labels, or claims. In order to combat the rampant confusion, the Leaping Bunn ..read more
