Flavedo & Albedo

Makeup bags around the world are filled with single-use plastic containers, and the cosmetics industry produces over 120 billion of these items every year. Unfortunately, most of these pumps, custom bottles, lids, and palettes cannot be recycled, making the cosmetics industry one of the largest contributors to plastic waste. In response, the brand set out to reconcile their love of makeup with a commitment to reducing plastic waste.

Their formulations are packaged exclusively in aluminium, glass, and sustainable timber—without a single plastic component. No tubs, lids, seals, or packaging contain plastic, and they work closely with suppliers to eliminate plastic throughout their entire supply chain.
