With social media being flooded with beauty DIY’s, health tips, and hair and skincare routines by influencers, it’s clear that younger generations are increasingly valuing what they put in and on their bodies.

Not only that, young consumers are becoming more environmentally conscientious. As we see a movement towards sustainability and preferences for nature-friendly products, 67% of Millennials prefer to buy from sustainable brands as of 2021.¹?As this shift continues, we’re seeing more beauty companies switch to alternative sources for their hair and skincare products by using vegan ingredients, nature-based formulas, and most importantly, paper-based packaging.

Not only that, they’re also pioneers in the movement to reduce plastic waste in the beauty industry. Their innovative BeautyCarton is a fully recyclable and shower-friendly, paper-based packaging product that uses 95% less plastic than traditional beauty packaging, furthering the movement towards plastic reduction in the industry.²
