Sustainable sheet masks
With consumers looking for more transparency from the beauty industry and ethical products, Lessonia has improved its sheet masks and packaging to answer to these needs. The result is a new sheet mask with a low environmental footprint.
Although sheet masks are an exceptionally popular pampering treat, they are probably one of the least sustainable elements a beauty routine.Perceptive of their environmental impact, Lessonia has harnessed its technical expertise to reduce the ecological footprint of sheet masks.
The company has re-engineer edits packaging and removed the polypropylene support.
In the sheet masks category, brands usually use aluminium foil sachet packaging, which has a high ecological footprint owing to how it’s produced. As
an alternative, the private label sheet mask manufacturer offers a sachet without aluminium foil. This halves the carbon footprint of the materials needed to manufacture sachets. Lessonia saves 50t of CO2 equivalent when producing 10 million masks. It also guarantees efficiency to protect product while reducing environmental impact.
Natural materials for sheet masks
Lessonia has taken its sustainable innovation to the next level removing the polypropylene support used to facilitate the unfolding of sheet masks. This saves 15t of polypropylene for every 10 million masks produced.
The company also proposes specific natural materials, such as a bio non-woven to reduce the environmental impact of sheet masks. In line with this, Lessonia’s Happy Mask range is certified OEKO-TEX level 1.
The natural serum portfolio for its Happy Mask’s includes bio cosmos organic lotions, which are 100 percent natural and either aqueous or creamy in texture. This is a good way for the company to propose sustainable and natural solutions for the different steps of sheet mask development. •
