Tackling plastic pollution head on Valley Mist strives towards plastic free beauty and skincare.
We will only ever send you your products in plastic free packaging. We are always looking to improve the sustainability of every aspect of Valley Mist.
Offering plastic free beauty in the form of cosmetics and skincare is one of the foundation stones of Valley Mist. Since our launch in 2016 sustainability has been our main focus.
With gaining interest from the public and more demand for sustainable products, it seems there is hope.
In time the measure of what is exactly sustainable and how we implement it will change and evolve.
We are hopeful that one day soon we can all live in a world where all cosmetics and skincare is packaged sustainably and mostly plastic free. A world where sustainable packaging it is just the norm. Wouldn’t that be nice.
