One Skin. One Planet. One Care.

YOU ONLY HAVE ONE SKIN.

It's your direct connection with nature. Rain, wind and sun touch it.

And it breathes the air that surrounds you. We are the largest skin care brand in the world.

We know that you can only have healthy skin in a healthy climate. That's why we take responsibility. 

We care for the health of our planet by making climate conscious products. 

Products which have a packaging and formula with a reduced CO2 footprint. 

That is why our products are healthy for the skin and for the planet.

So that every person that uses our products for beautiful skin also improves their own climate balance.

A person like you.

OUR ACHIEVEMENTS IN SUSTAINABLE PACKAGING

Guided by the principles of the circular economy, we are on a mission to use plastic responsibly in our product packaging. Our approach is straightforward: we reduce plastic wherever possible, recycle plastic as much as we can, replace it when it makes sense, and encourage our customers to reuse packaging.

Find out how our achievements and targets to create sustainable packaging with recycled plastic or plastic-free material help us to prevent pollution, decrease our CO2 emissions and therefore contribute to fighting against climate change.
