Sustainability

Neen is committed to advancing sustainability in the makeup industry by incorporating the principles of reduce, reuse, and recycle throughout the entire product development process. In our design process, we don’t start with design and then try to think of a sustainability angle. Rather, we approach design with sustainability top of mind. We recognize (and love!) that you want planet-friendly options without having to sacrifice color and quality.

Reduce

Our monthly subscription card lets you test and play with our products before you decide on what you have your heart set on. We are proud to say that we’ve made the first reusable silicone compact (from sand and oxygen!), which doesn't hurt our oceans with microparticles.

We limit our use of plastic whenever possible and use recycled PET clamshells that can be recycled again. Our bubble bag packaging is partially recycled and recyclable.

We use paper mailer bags to ship small items and produce almost all our products locally. We are also committed to offsetting the carbon footprint of our shipping.

Reuse

Our products are like superheroes. They can pop out of their compacts and be replaced with just a refill - saving the day (or night) and the planet! And speaking of superheroes, our compacts have a super long lifespan, are tough as nails, and can be easily clean and reused.

Recycle

All our Subscription Cards are like eco-warriors, made with Forest Stewardship Council-certified paper and fully recyclable after removing or finishing your swatches.

Our compacts are metal-hinge and mirror-free because (iykyk) mixing materials is a no-no when it comes to recycling. But don't worry, once your compact has served its purpose, send it back to us, and we'll give it a new life. Think of it like a spa day for compacts - they'll come back looking and feeling brand new.

Contact support@weareneen.com for all the juicy recycling details.

Consciously Formulated

Let’s face it, “clean” standards in the makeup industry are not clear. It’s like a game of Marco Polo - we’re all blindly reaching out for guidelines, but they’re so inconsistent, we end up lost at sea (a very polluted sea, at that).

At Neen, we take a more hands-on approach, scrutinizing each and every ingredient to make sure it’s up to our high standards. If an ingredient doesn’t make the cut, we leave it out of the mix.
