We all know that feeling of finding the perfect skincare product that makes your skin glow and feel good to use. But have you ever stopped to think about the impact your beauty routine has on the environment? Plastic pollution is one of the most pressing issues facing our planet today. With over 8 million tonnes of plastic waste entering our oceans annually, it's clear that something needs to change.
At Plantifique, we believe that true beauty isn’t just about looking good, it’s about doing good too. That's why we're committed to sustainable skincare and helping you make eco-conscious choices without sacrificing quality.
Why Sustainability Matters
Our commitment to sustainability goes beyond just using natural ingredients, it’s about creating a holistic approach to beauty that considers the entire lifecycle of our products. From the moment our founder, Cristina Gonta, created the first Plantifique product, our mission has been to combine the power of superfoods with a deep respect for our planet. As part of this commitment, we’ve partnered with the Plastic Bank Foundation, a global organization dedicated to tackling plastic pollution. To date, we’ve rescued over 400,000 plastic bottles from waterways, which is equivalent to removing 16.461 million straws or 791 bathtubs worth of plastic from the sea.
How the Plastic Bottle Project Works
For every product you purchase, we partner with the Plastic Bank Foundation to recycle one plastic bottle from the ocean. Operating in countries like Haiti, Brazil, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Egypt, the foundation works with local communities to collect plastic waste before it can reach the ocean. This waste is then transformed into "Social Plastic," which can be reused in new products and packaging. This means that with every order, you’re actively participating in the fight against plastic pollution, making a step towards healthier skin and a healthier planet.
We also focus on sustainable packaging. We’ve made it a priority to reduce unnecessary materials and waste in our packaging. By using recyclable and biodegradable materials, we ensure that our sustainable skincare products are as kind to the earth as they are to your skin.
Sustainable Beauty is A Choice for the Future
Our products are crafted with superfoods, nature’s most powerful botanicals that are rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. These plant-based ingredients are carefully selected, harvested, and processed to preserve their purity and potency, ensuring that you’re getting the best nature has to offer.
None of our ingredients are derived from animals, and we will never test our products on animals. This aligns perfectly with our mission to create a beauty routine that is not only effective but also ethical. You can feel good about what you’re putting on your skin, knowing that it’s free from harsh chemicals and harmful additives.
