Beauty Conversation

Ethical Living

From a more conscious lifestyle to the specific and unique choice of products coming from ethical companies.

We all know that consumers want to feel connected to their environment. They want to protect the planet and for that every little step they can do in their daily life is important. Reducing waste, improving living condition, and mainly purchase products from ethical brands with a strong sustainability strategy and lot of commitment. This is becoming a norm, a new lifestyle, a green lifestyle. In this hot topic, we can see 2 ways to talk about ethical living.

1 - More conscious lifestyle, meaning that consumers want to take care of the planet in every way: recycling, using less water, refilling, concretely protecting the environment.

2 - A greater ethical and human approach of the brand. Here we have to understand that brands will be deeply analyzed by consumers, in term of ethical choice, sustainability commitment and greater equality.

This will make the final choice for consumers when buying their beauty product.

Being more and more aligned with the planet earth, consumers want to make their lifestyle more conscious, with minimalistic products, being ecological, as much local as possible, with less or upcycled packaging.

Consumers also demand stronger ethics and greater equality - from each other as well as from the brands. Daily acts will be linked to their social and political impact to built a more equitable world.

Here again, on social media, we can highlight this double approach. Consumers want to support and protect the environment, to use more sustainable and ecofriendly products and in the meantime, they also want to buy products from more local businesses and will be ready to boycott companies that are not ethical.
