Oquist Cosmetics

Our big secret is out! Aside from having 0% water in our formulations which allows for a lower carbon footprint by up to 95%, we decided to store our products in upcycable terracotta clay sculptures Terracotta comes straight from the soil and takes very little energy (and CO2 emissions) to produce. It's also very lightweight and doesn't contain any chemicals or toxins... The sculptures are intended to be upcycled after the content inside is finished. Use it as an olive oil dispenser, vase, book holder, tea bowl, espresso cup, jewelry container etc. The only limit is your imagination! Each piece has its own unique story and our hope is that this story will continue its life in your home https://oquistcosmetics.com

CONSCIOUS PACKAGING GUIDE upon your request Instructions: This is NOT a definite sustainability measurement of different materials. This is a presentation of pros and cons from 6 different aspects that usually are taken into account when measuring sustainability in materials. Each aspect has been graded 1-5, where 1 is least sustainable and 5 is most sustainable. Having said this, YOU should know your own priorities when it comes to sustainability. So ask yourself, what is... important to you: Recycling? Toxicity? CO2 emissions? Or all together? Next question to ask yourself - what are your commitments as a conscious consumer? Are you ready to up-cycle? Do you recycle? Or do you prefer getting less packaging in your home in general? Now that you know your sustainability priorities and your own commitment - count the total points for each row that maters to you and add them up for each material. The more points = the more sustainable As of today there is no packaging material that is 100% sustainable. Even a lot of the refill options out there comes in soft plastic, which is not recyclable. Deciding what packaging is most sustainable depends on many factors, including what country you live in and your personal consumer habits. We really hope this guide will help you in making more conscious choices in your next beauty purchase Sign up at https://oquistcosmetics.com/prelaunch/ to find out which material Oquist Cosmetics has choosen for its packaging, and it's not any of the ones mentioned in the post
