In celebration of World Environment Day we wanted to share some of our favourite eco-friendly skincare swaps to inspire you to choose better for your family, your health and the environment.
As a brand, LAMAV has embraced values of sustainability - from how our ingredients are sourced to our processes, packaging and product development. We are forging a new path to become as green and eco-friendly as possible.
In our commitment to minimise our environmental impact, we continue to drive positive sustainable changes as we grow.
This includes:
-
Selecting recyclable materials for both internal and external packaging such as glass, aluminium and PCR wherever possible.
-
Choosing sustainably sourced materials for our beauty tools such as beechwood for our Body Gua Sha, sustainably sourced bamboo for our Garshana Dry Body Brush and teak wood and brass used to create our Kansa Wand.
- Developing re-usable accessories such as our Bamboo Cleansing Cloth, Exfoliating Mitt and Tan Application Mitt.
-
We place great weight on the importance of ethically sourcing our natural ingredients and using processes that are as friendly to our bodies as they are to our environment.
-
Converting warehouse practices to paperless wherever possible including removal of packing slips and unnecessary use of paper/bubble wrap in customer packaging.
We all know that glass and aluminium are obvious recyclable materials, but one thing you may not be as familiar with is PCR. Post-consumer recycled packaging (PCR), uses materials that have been previously used by consumers and recycled into new packaging. The recycled plastic is cleaned, processed, and converted into new plastic resins, which are then used to create packaging materials like films, pouches, and bottles. Using PCR packaging supports reduced waste and lower environmental impact.
From head to toe - LAMAV has a variety of eco-conscious and sustainable skin and body products. Switch to these Eco-Friendly, Sustainable Skin and Body Care Products to support your skin health while contributing to a better planet.
SUSTAINABLE SKINCARE PRODUCTS
LAMAV Face Oils
Whether you’re looking to Brighten, Boost Hydration or support Age Defence, our potent yet gentle face oils are housed in glass bottles to ensure their precious bio-actives maintain effectiveness while supporting the environment.
To recycle at home, rinse with soapy water (while being mindful not to waste water), discard the dropper and recycle the bottle. Alternatively, you can reuse the glass bottle on your bedside table or bathroom bench top as a mini vase.
Bakuchiol and Collagen Support Booster
Our boosters pack a punch when it comes to delivering serious skincare results, but are super gentle when it comes to the planet. Created with similar sustainable packaging to our face oils - simply discard the dropper, recycle the bottle or re-use around the home.
Reusable Bamboo Cleansing Cloth & Makeup Remover Wipes
You may be horrified to learn that billions of makeup remover and baby wipes are thrown into landfill every year! The solution? LAMAV’s reusable bamboo cleansing cloth and makeup remover wipes. Super soft and sustainable, you can use these wipes alone in the AM for a quick skin refresh before starting your AM skincare routine, or pair with your favourite LAMAV cleanser or exfoliant to assist with product removal. Rinse well and allow to dry after each use while washing thoroughly a few times per week to maintain hygiene.
Exfoliants
Housed in beautiful aluminium tubing, our exfoliants are a dream to use and apply while ensuring you can maximise recycling in your skincare routine. To prevent wastage and help you get the most out of your tube products, invest in LAMAV’s aluminium tube key to enjoy every last drop of product!
Masks
Eco friendly pampering never looked or felt so good with LAMAV’s Face Masks. Whether you need an overnight hydration boost, a firmer complexion or you’re in need of some brightening, we have 3 organic, sustainable masks to choose from that will support your skin concerns.
REUSABLE BEAUTY TOOLS
Our at-home beauty tools are an eco-conscious way to enjoy facial massage over and over again without impacting the environment. Choose your favourite LAMAV Face Oil and reach for our Kansa Wand, Gua Sha or Facial Roller to encourage lymphatic drainage, smooth and plump the skin while relieving tired facial muscles.
BODY
Our Ayurvedic inspired body products are designed to inspire moments of self care while contributing to a healthier, smoother complexion. You’ll also be helping out mother nature by choosing organically formulated, sustainable products that are housed in recyclable packaging.
Our Award Winning Ayurvedic Body Oils look, smell and feel amazing while also being easy to recycle and reuse around the home. Remove fixtures and fittings, rinse in soapy water and re-use as a small bedside vase.
LAMAV’s Vitamin C Hand Cream is an everyday essential that is as kind to your hands as it is to the planet. The lightweight aluminium tube makes it ideal for the handbag or bedside table and is best used with LAMAV’s tube key to ensure there is no sign of product waste!
Created using sustainably sourced bamboo, LAMAV’s Garshana Dry Body Brush offers a nourishing ritual that stimulates lymphatic drainage, improves the body’s natural detoxification channels and boosts circulation to revitalise and rejuvenate skin. On a deeper level, incorporating Garshana dry body brushing into your daily routine is a powerful way to implement self-care, energise the body, increase blood flow and boost overall vitality while supporting a sustainable future.
If soft and smooth is more your style, reach for LAMAV’s Aura Body Gua Sha. Created with natural Beechwood, this body gua sha was specifically designed to tone, tighten, sculpt and smooth skin by stimulating energy flow and reducing inflammation and tension.
