I hesitated to use this space to talk about our exciting new sustainability initiative. Like everyone else, my plans have shifted as the world comes together to face COVID-19. It’s a humbling and uncertain time to be a business owner, father, and human being, but I’m hoping we make it through together—and emerge stronger on the other side. Ten years ago, I created The Detox Market with a mission in mind: to build a community around green beauty and guide people with products, advice, and education they can trust. Now we’re expanding our impact to include not only people, but also the planet. While green beauty has always been sustainably minded, we’re intensifying our environmental efforts and doing everything in our power to walk a little lighter. These challenging circumstances serve as a reminder of just how connected we are to each other—and how our individual choices have a profound impact on the world around us. You can read about our in-depth sustainability strategy on page 4. With that, please consider this issue of the Detox Edit a muchneeded beauty break. During times of uncertainty, it’s often the simplest pleasures that brighten our spirits most. Thank you for being a part of the Detox family. Stay well, Romain Gaillard Founder & CEO

SUSTAIN
STARTS
How The Detox Market i
Big results require big ambitions. At the beginning of this year, we launched our Sustainability Starts Now campaign. We’ve always been conscious of our environmental impact, but after seeing climatologist Ed Hawkins’ Warming Stripes (shown at the top of this page), we’re stepping up our efforts in a major way. Our ultimate goal: being carbon negative, planting 2.5 million trees, and inspiring others to join us—all by 2025.
What are the Warming Stripes? In May 2018, climatologist Ed Hawkins released the compelling image above, which makes a notoriously complex issue very easy to visualize. After realizing that most graphs didn’t effectively convey the seriousness of climate change to the general public, he produced this Warming Stripes graphic depicting average global temperatures from 1850 (when measurements were first recorded) to the present. As the colors show, we are experiencing the hottest temperatures ever seen, and the future is only getting warmer. This impactful image was the tipping point for The Detox Market’s CEO and founder, Romain Gaillard, who explains, “When I came across the #ShowYourStripes campaign—a simple, fact-based, visual representation of the global rise in temperature over the past 120 years—I was stunned. Comparing where my parents were born on the chart to where my birth year fell was eye-opening enough, but when I placed my kids on the dark red stripes? I realized things needed to change, and soon.”

is prioritizing the planet
Earth CPR Every journey needs a roadmap. Earth CPR is our sustainability blueprint to achieving our goals of being carbon negative, planting 2.5 million trees, and motivating others to do the same. CPR stands for clean, plant, and reduce.
We’re planting a tree for every online order!
Clean
First things first: Being part of the solution starts with cleaning up the mess that already exists. Company-wide recycling is a critical aspect, along with best practices like keeping our coastlines clean and choosing eco-friendly products. By partnering with TerraCycle to turn our stores into beauty-recycling hubs, we help divert millions of pounds of waste from landfills and incinerators.
Plant
Proactively contributing to a cleaner, greener future is central to our vision, and we’ve partnered with Eden Reforestation Projects to do just that. We’re focusing our efforts in Madagascar, where only 10 percent of the island’s forests remain. By employing local villagers to plant millions of trees each year, the nonprofit restores healthy forests while alleviating poverty through stable work and life-transforming wages. Healthy, thriving forests support local wildlife and ecosystems while preventing desertification, erosion, and flooding—not to mention, a single mature tree can absorb 48 pounds of carbon dioxide per year!
Reduce
Becoming carbon negative by 2025 means combing through every single aspect of our company to see where we can lighten our load. From our stores and offices to our shipping warehouses, we’re making simple changes that yield serious results, now and over time. We’re re-evaluating in-house packaging decisions, optimizing how we stock our stores and offices, designing modular retail displays to phase out the nonrecyclable acrylic ones, and so much more. While sustainability itself may be a complicated topic, living more sustainably doesn’t have to be. It’s all about taking the first step. We’ve got a lot of eco-friendly products and content coming your way, so get excited! Above all, we’re committed to transparency and continuous improvement. Keep up with our journey at thedetoxmarket.ca/ sustainabilitystartsnow and on Instagram @thedetoxmarketcanada. Oh, and let us know how you’re reducing your carbon footprint this year—we’d love to hear from you. #sustainabilitystartsnow
The Detox Market x Odacité In collaboration with our #SustainabilityStartsNow campaign, we partnered with Odacité to create a limited-edition Blue Aura Cleansing Water sporting the Warming Stripes image. For every bottle sold, Odacité will plant 10 trees.

Why Odacité believes in customizing skincare
arisian-born Valérie Grandury spent 14 years producing commercials around the world before her battle with breast cancer spurred a massive lifestyle shift. When the health food store aisles failed to live up to her French expectations for luxurious, high-performance skincare, she decided to make her own. Valérie explains, “When I started sourcing, it felt intuitive to hire location scouts I worked with in the past to find me the best natural ingredients traditionally used for beauty in their country. They sent me green tea seed oil from Japan, tamanu oil from the rainforest of Madagascar, seaweeds from Ireland, wild carrot seed oil from France, acai oil from Brazil, marula from Senegal, and so many more.” The Serum Concentrates are concentrated doses of active ingredients created according to Valérie’s core skincare philosophy. She says, “Before I launched Odacité I worked with private clients customizing skincare products for their specific needs. I realized that skin is constantly changing, and using the same products every day just doesn’t work! In fact, studies show that almost 80 percent of your skin concerns are triggered by environmental factors you have little control over—weather, pollution, stress, diet, sleep, and hormones affect the skin in such a dramatic way. No product in the world can hydrate in the morning and treat pimples at night.” Odacité offers 18 Serum Concentrates to target nearly every skin concern. “You don’t need to change everything,” Valérie advises. “Just add one to two drops to your skincare routine morning and night to maximize your results and get the skin you want—every single day.”

5 Ways to Supercharge Your Skincare Massaged into the face alone or infused into other products, Serum Concentrates are a megadose of targeted actives. 1. Mix 1 to 2 drops into your skincare to amplify the results. 2. Use alone as an intensive treatment or spot solution. 3. Alternate serums depending on your skin’s needs—for example, you can use the Bl + C Pimples Serum Concentrate a few days before a predicted hormonal flare-up. 4. Use specific serums on different zones of your face. 5. Mix with your foundation to up its skincare properties, or to turn a mineral powder into a dewy fluid.

How Kjaer Weis changed the makeup game
I The newly launched Nude, Naturally Collection is the culmination of Kirsten’s many years as a makeup artist. She says, “A nude lipstick is like a white T-shirt or a pair of jeans. It’s a staple you love and rely on to make you feel good every day. We made a range of buttery soft, velvety textured nudes that are just a pleasure to use. In terms of color, I went for skin-flattering hues.” With the ultra-inclusive assortment ranging from petal pink to cool chocolate, there’s a nude for everyone to fall in love with.

n 2010, Kirsten Kjaer Weis—pronounced “kee-yair”—quietly ushered in a completely unprecedented category for makeup, one that was natural, sustainable, and unapologetically chic. As an editorial makeup artist known for, in her words, “healthy, glowing, honest skin,” it became increasingly clear that the conventional makeup in her kit was problematic. The models complained about breakouts and sensitivities, and Kirsten was spurred into action. She shares, “Starting my own business, I felt a real need to create my piece of the world in a responsible way. I didn’t want to make just another line; I wanted to do something different.” While her minimalist upbringing on a working Danish farm instilled her inclination for all things natural, her years in fashion informed her elevated aesthetic. The Kjaer Weis refill system, with its sleek, metal alloy compacts, was miles ahead of its time in sustainability and taste. According to Kirsten, “Typically a beauty brand is either beautiful and luxurious, or organic and sustainable. This takes out the compromise: you get both.” On top of that, the Italian-made formulas meet incredibly strict standards. Kirsten explains, “Our organic certification process is one of the most stringent and rigorous in the world. We are certified organic by the CCPB, the certifying body out of Italy. If you’re in the industry, you know—these guys cut no corners. Our organic certification means 95 percent of what goes into our product is deemed organic, and ingredients are grown on supervised organic farms.”

Symbiotic Ingredients
BEAUTY
“Our ingredients are Symbiotic, a new cosmetic category that transcends organic and fair trade. It means ingredients are grown wild (not farmed) in the virgin rainforest, ingredients are hand-processed through ancestral knowledge, and makers are paid more than the fair trade price to help them continue to build their own economies and strengthen their position as indigenous people.”

“Rahua relies on plants to create clean, purifying formulas for transformative results. Rahua oil, our key ingredient, is high in omega-9 nutrients, which benefit both hair and skin. The secret to the fatty acid–rich oil is its molecular weight—unlike other botanical oils or synthetic silicones, rahua oil deeply penetrates the hair’s cortex, bonding and repairing it while simultaneously smoothing the cuticle. This fortifies hair, leaving it shiny and lustrous.”
Saving the rainforest with Rahua
efore Rahua existed as a hair care range, co-founders Fabian Lliguin and Anna Ayers came together through their passion for the environment. They created their nonprofit, Ecoagents, to raise awareness about the Amazon rainforest and the importance of protecting it—a cause particularly close to Ecuadorian native Fabian, who witnessed firsthand the devastating effects of deforestation. A stroke of serendipity enabled a new chapter in the couple’s efforts. Anna recalls, “While on an environmental mission in the Amazon rainforest, Fabian was introduced to women with extraordinarily long, strong, healthy hair. The women shared their use of a natural oil, called rahua, derived from the ungurahua seed. This rare oil is made through a highly sustainable and regenerative process using ancient wisdom and ceremonial practices. Fabian brought some back to our salon and was amazed at the transformative results, particularly on clients with extremely dry, damaged hair. The discovery of rahua oil inspired the birth of the brand, which has philanthropy built into its DNA.” According to Fabian, “The brand was born with a clear mission from day one: to save the Amazon rainforest. The introduction of rahua oil served as the method to channel our mission’s work in helping the Amazon tribes sustain the environment and create local economies. Our approach is to empower the indigenous people to preserve their traditions. In doing this, they remain strong as the forest’s guardians and protectors, living in balance and nurturing its abundance for generations. This directly protects precious oxygen-producing trees.”
Superior Formulas
Beyond Carbon Neutral
“Rahua is beyond carbon neutral. Your support of Rahua directly neutralizes CO2 emissions, preserves rich biodiverse rainforests, and helps bring new life to the Amazon. Not only do we help safeguard existing trees, but we also plant palo santo seedlings with the help of local communities so these precious ingredients continue to flourish. Our commitment to Mother Nature—and to you—is to continue creating products that nourish hair and help protect the Amazon rainforest and its inhabitants.”

A sunscreen that ticks every box?
Love Sun Body has you covered.
H
ave you ever felt like it’s impossible to find a sunscreen that meets all your criteria? So did Dr. Terry Zickerman. He shares, “My family and I were visiting Point Pleasant Beach in New Jersey. As everyone was putting on sun protection, we started talking about how difficult it was to find a natural sunscreen that worked, was safe to use, and wasn’t packed full of synthetic chemicals.” Dr. Zickerman made it his mission to create something natural, eco-friendly, and easy to use. Seven years later, Love Sun Body was born. Holding himself to the highest standards, Dr. Zickerman prioritized securing certification that would prove the efficacy and safety of his mineral sunscreen. He explains, “We are the first COSMOS Natural certified sunscreen in North America. To meet the requirements, we must confirm our raw ingredients are sourced from plants and minerals without any GMOs, comply with strict limitations regarding ingredient toxicity and biodegradability, and adopt green chemistry, which means it is safe for the environment and humans. Even the cleaning materials used before and after manufacturing must be compliant! Plus, our labeling is reviewed for accuracy, our packaging must be environmentally friendly, and we must have an environmental and waste-management plan for our factories. It’s a lot of effort and diligence, but we believe consumers deserve to know they can trust that our products are truly 100 percent natural.” The Love Sun Body range is also hypoallergenic, noncomedogenic, and reef safe. “We are really proud that our products do not contain oxybenzone, avobenzone, octinoxate, or any of the other chemicals that have been banned around the world. We use more than 20 percent non-nano zinc oxide and titanium dioxide—the only ingredients considered reef safe. The entire line is blendable and non-whitening, and features the highest level of broad-spectrum coverage required globally. We believe you should be able to have fun in the sun without compromising your protection or safety.” The Love Sun Body assortment currently includes SPF 30 and SPF 50 lotions, with more launches on the way. Dr. Zickerman reveals, “We’re working on a revolutionary face sunscreen that protects, hydrates, defends against environmental aggressors, and fights visible signs of aging.” The future is looking bright.

It also gives the makeup something to hold on to for longevity. Make sure to use a little under the eyes, aka the area that smudges most. Also, now is the time to practice your look before the wedding to work out the kinks and adjust as needed. Take a lot of photos to make sure your colors and textures are translating on film!”
SUZY GERSTEIN “Consider rimming your lower waterline with a flesh-toned eye pencil to make your eyes look bigger and brighter. My favorite is Kjaer Weis Eye Pencil in Bright because I can also blend a bit underneath the brow and at the inner corners of the eye for a natural, flattering highlight. Layer a sheer powder blush over a cream blush for a lasting flush with enough depth and vibrancy that it won’t wash out on camera. I love to press the RMS Beauty Pressed Blush over their Lip2Cheek in a horizontal oval shape across the cheeks for a healthy look.”
REBECCA CASCIANO “Keep your skin glowy and fresh by misting it with flower waters or hydrosols throughout the day. Use them as part of your skin prep to set makeup and refresh and soothe skin. I love Josh Rosebrook Hydrating Accelerator and Laurel Skin Hydrating Elixir I. Pack a maintenance kit that includes your lip color (Ilia Beauty Colorblock High Impact Lipstick is a favorite), lip balm, concealer, and a pressed foundation. Make time for a couple of touch-ups to help your look last throughout the day and night.” 22

Skincare With A Conscience How Kahina Giving Beauty gives back, one drop at a time
I Just in: Kahina Giving Beauty’s brand-new Hand Cream delivers maximum hydration for the very hands-on. With argan oil, shea butter, rose, and resurrection plant, it revives, replenishes, and boosts radiance in overworked hands, with zero greasy residue.
n 2008, almost no one in North America was using face oils. The very idea seemed counterintuitive. Like the fatfree diet culture of the ‘90s, oil-free skincare was de rigueur. Fast-forward to 2020: We’re putting avocado on everything, and face oils are considered essential for radiant, healthy-looking skin. In other words, Katharine L’Heureux was wildly ahead of her time. The epitome of a New Yorker, Katharine is witty, warm, stylish, and resourceful. When all her beauty products were confiscated at JFK Airport on her way to Morocco, she visited the local marketplace in Marrakech for replacements and discovered something new—argan oil. She remembers, “I was unaccustomed to using a pure oil on my face, but after experiencing its benefits, I realized I had found the skincare solution I had been searching for. Soon after, I created my dream line of simple, effective, organic skincare products, ethically produced and beautifully packaged, with this amazing ingredient at its core.” It’s no wonder her argan oil was one of the first to blow up on the skincare scene. Kahina Giving Beauty Argan Oil has high concentrations of vitamin E, plus omega-6 and -9 fatty acids. It’s moisturizing yet surprisingly lightweight, with plant sterols that minimize breakouts, making it a popular product for all types of skin. But not all argan oil is created equal. Kahina Giving Beauty imports the highest-quality oils from the Anti-Atlas Mountains of Morocco, where about 100 women in a tiny village produce it. Katherine shares, “Our mission since inception has been to create skincare that helps elevate the women who produce the oils at the heart of our line. Giving Beauty, our company name, represents this. The other part of our name, Kahina, is for a Berber queen and prophetess who reigned in North Africa in the 8th century. We chose the name as a tribute to the Berber women of Morocco who do the hard work to produce our argan and prickly pear seed oils. Additionally, the artwork on our packaging is a compilation of signatures and graphic marks from the women of the argan cooperatives.” Kahina Giving Beauty commits at least one percent of its annual profits to giving back in the form of tree planting, education, health care, and other resources for Berber women. Kahina Giving Beauty is inspired by Morocco’s beauty rituals, especially the use of pure Argan Oil and Prickly Pear Seed Oil, two of the brand’s signature products. Other traditional ingredients, like blue tansy, neroli, eucalyptus, and rose, feature prominently throughout the range of face and body products. Katharine explains, “I wanted to create products that not only transport me there each time I use them, but also give back to an underserved community of women in a meaningful way.”

Shirley Pinkson, co-founder of W3LL PEOPLE Mindset: The New Psychology of Success by Carol S. Dweck
“Mindset is a great reminder to be mindful of our words and thoughts. What we put out there can become our reality.

“This is a grown-up fairy tale set in 1920s Alaska. The author uses perfect, simple language to tell a story about love, endurance, romance, heartbreak, and more than a little magic.
