Research and gather eco-friendly, sustainable ingredients
Look for ingredients that are ethically sourced, organic, and have minimal impact on the environment. This may include oils, butters, essential oils, and natural colorants.
Choose recipes for natural cosmetics
Select recipes for products like lip balms, body butters, and facial masks that use the sustainable ingredients you've gathered. Ensure the recipes align with your sustainability goals.
Follow sustainable production and packaging practices
When making your natural cosmetics, use energy-efficient methods and reusable or recyclable packaging. Minimize waste and consider the lifecycle of your products.
Test and adjust your formulations
Conduct small-scale tests of your cosmetics to ensure they are effective and safe. Make adjustments as needed to improve the quality and sustainability of your products.
Label and store your natural cosmetics properly
Clearly label your products with their ingredients and expiration dates. Store them in a cool, dark place to prolong their shelf life and maintain their effectiveness.
