Blue Beauty: What Is It?

While the philosophy behind green beauty is about an end to end transparency of the ingredients from sourcing to distribution, blue beauty goes beyond just transparency. The term blue beauty was coined by Jeannie Jarnot who spearhead Project Blue Beauty to refer to the concept of using methods and products that contribute to conserving the delicate balance of marine life.

Why Do We Need Blue Beauty?

 Packaging along with normalization of harmful chemicals in the beauty products is the main offender when it comes to the ocean. Packaging, Most of which is excessive and wasteful and ends up at the bottom of the ocean. Going plastic-free or adopting zero-waste packaging is how blue beauty contributes to the conservation of the ocean and its aquatic life. 

The players in the beauty industry need to be mindful of the impact that their products are having on the marine ecosystem. Brands need to look at the entire life cycle of their products to assess the damage caused to the oceans. From the amount of water a product needs for manufacturing to the disposal of the plastic packaging, a whole host of issues need to be considered. 

Blue beauty is not just a trend, it’s a movement. An informed decision that impacts your personal care in a positive and sustained manner should be at the core of your beauty care regime. Many brands now shy away from using materials in their products that cannot be re / upcycled. Compostable lip balm tubes anyone?
