INSIDE THE LAB: Notes on Sustainable Beauty (A conversation between science and sensibility.)
At INBAR+co, sustainability isn’t our angle — it’s our architecture.
Every formula, vessel, and ritual is designed with the same guiding question:
Can beauty exist without cost to the planet that inspires it?
The answer, we believe, lies in balance — between nature and biotechnology, between artistry and regulation, between what feels good and what does good.
Beyond “Natural”: How Sustainability Protects Biodiversity
In sustainable skincare, “natural” isn’t always better — and innovation can be the planet’s greatest ally.
The global demand for all-natural cosmetic ingredients often puts unsustainable pressure on farmland and wild ecosystems. Monocropping for cosmetic-grade botanicals depletes soil health, reduces biodiversity, and threatens the very environments beauty depends on.
At INBAR+co, we see science as an ally to nature — not its replacement, but its evolution.
We choose ingredients for function and integrity: actives that are safe, traceable, and compliant with the world’s most rigorous environmental standards, including EU REACH and ECHA microplastic regulations.
By pairing green chemistry with responsible sourcing, we lessen strain on fragile ecosystems while achieving purity, potency, and performance.
Local, Ethical, and EU-Compliant Production
Our eco-luxury skincare collection is made locally in California in a CGMP-certified facility powered by renewable energy.
Producing close to home allows us to oversee every step — from formulation to filling — ensuring that our products meet the highest standards of safety, quality, and sustainability.
Local manufacturing also reduces transportation emissions and supports California’s clean-energy initiatives, proving that responsible beauty can begin at the source.
Plastic-Free Packaging and Carbon-Neutral Design
Every detail of our plastic-free skincare packaging is intentional: we use infinitely recyclable aluminum.
Sprayers are offered only for our Eau de Cologne and Essences, and the $5 cost is donated in full to WWF to support global ocean-protection initiatives.
We are currently developing a next-generation fully plastic-free sprayer, so even these convenient components align with our zero-waste philosophy.
Our operations remain carbon-neutral, powered by renewable energy — proof that sustainability can be both refined and responsible.
