Pattern Beauty

PATTERN Beauty has made ingredient commitments to lower its environmental impact, including by avoiding parabens, phthalates, and select other petrochemical-based ingredients. While it has made commitments, it still uses some ingredients that pose a significant threat to the climate, including some petrochemical-based ingredients and palm oil-derived ingredients. It can be very difficult to eliminate these entirely, especially for small brands with limited resources. Its products incorporate bio-based and/or biodegradable ingredients. It carries products that have certifications from PETA Animal Test-free.

PATTERN Beauty hasn't made any efforts to concentrate its products or minimize its containers, which increases shipping emissions and packaging volumes. It appears to still rely on plastic packaging, but also uses some eco-friendly materials in its product containers, including recyclable glass and paper.

PATTERN Beauty doesn't share information on its energy strategy, and doesn't provide information on any water conservation strategies. PATTERN Beauty has an unknown production span.

PATTERN Beauty doesn't utilize any alternative models or methods to avert waste. It offers bulk sizes for most products, which may help reduce packaging waste.

PATTERN Beauty doesn't frequently release seasonal or new products, which helps prevent production of excess inventory.
