It can be difficult to ensure that a product is environmentally friendly, as this encompasses a large number of parameters (short circuits, life cycle, carbon footprint, etc.).

One of these parameters iseco-toxicity: the toxicity of our formulas on the ecosystems that populate the natural world around us. This is a complex parameter, since the risk posed by our products to the environment is a relationship between the danger they present and the exposure of organisms to our products. To date, there is neither a regulatory framework nor a regulatory consensus for assessing this impact.

There are, however, labels and logos (not self-declared) that can be used to identify eco-designed products.

The European Ecolabel aims to design and promote products (goods and services) that respect the environment and human health throughout their life cycle (from the extraction of raw materials to their manufacture and use). It encourages the sustainable production and consumption of products, as well as the sustainable provision and use of services.

eToxiSafe: Environmental logo guaranteeing quality, backed up by reliable and relevant scientific evidence. It's a scientific process that establishes, through ecotoxicological studies, that a product has a reduced impact on the environment.

In conclusion, the perfect product for nature doesn't exist!

However, sun protection is essential for the skin, and the best alternative for the consumer is to be well informed so as to consume consciously.

What are the strengths of a suncare product? A pleasant formulation that makes you want to apply the product several times a day for optimum protection, reduced, eco-designed packaging, and a brand committed to nature with transparent communication for a conscious choice of product.
