Il Makiage
Il Makiage's Sustainability Rating
Harmful
Ingredients
Il Makiage doesn't make any overarching ingredient commitments, and it still uses many ingredients that pose a significant threat to the climate, including parabens, other petrochemical-based ingredients, uncertified palm oil or palm oil-derived ingredients, microplastics, and harmful suncare ingredients. Choice of ingredients is a strong determinant of environmental impact. Il Makiage doesn't report having any product or company-level certifications.
Containers & Packaging
Il Makiage doesn't publicly share information on its shipping materials and product containers. Packaging is a large portion of the industry's emissions and waste footprint. We assume it still relies on virgin plastics. Il Makiage hasn't made any efforts to concentrate its products or minimize its containers, which increases shipping emissions and packaging volumes.
Energy & Water Use
Il Makiage doesn't share information on its energy strategy. Il Makiage doesn't provide information on any water conservation strategies. Il Makiage has a global production span, which is standard for the industry.
Refill & Reuse
Commons couldn't find evidence that this brand offers any alternative models to lower its waste footprint, such as refills or takeback programs. It doesn't provide any guidance to help customers properly recycle or dispose of its products.
Slow Consumption
Il Makiage offers seasonal products or frequent releases, which can encourage overconsumption and production of excess inventory.
Marketing
Commons is still evaluating this brand's marketing emails.
Transparency & Reporting
Il Makiage doesn't appear to have a sustainability page or centralized source of relevant information. Commons couldn't find a sustainability page or annual report for this brand, this signals a lack of transparency and accountability. Il Makiage shares a complete list of ingredients used in its products, on a per product basis.
Emissions Tracking
Commons couldn't find information on this brand's emissions tracking. We expect large brands with the largest emissions footprint to track and report their data publicly.
Targets & Offsets
Commons couldn't find emissions reduction targets for this brand. Larger brands have an outsized impact and responsibility to reduce their emissions. Commons couldn't find evidence that this brand offsets any emissions.
Supply Chain & Labor
Il Makiage doesn't publish information about its supply chain partners. It doesn't publicly share a supplier code of conduct. We expect larger brands to have a public code of conduct. Il Makiage doesn't have a stated policy of regularly auditing its supply chain partners. This may increase human and environmental risks. Commons couldn't find further information about this brand's supply chain and labor practices.
Advocacy
Commons wasn't able to find evidence of any trade association memberships or any relevant policy for this brand. Il Makiage isn't a member of any key advocacy organizations that are blocking climate policy. It isn't a member of advocacy organizations advancing climate policy. It doesn't employ any state lobbyists. Il Makiage didn't donate more than $100k to climate-obstructive candidates or PACs from 2018-2024.
We avoid Il Makiage because its sustainability reporting is incomplete or nonexistent. We expect more transparency and accountability from large brands.
Choice of ingredients is a strong determinant of environmental impact, and Il Makiage doesn't make any brand-level commitments related to its ingredients. It uses many ingredients that pose a significant threat to the climate, including parabens, petrochemicals, uncertified palm oil derivatives, microplastics, and harmful suncare ingredients. It doesn't utilize any alternative models or packaging minimization strategies to reduce its waste and emissions footprint.
Il Makiage doesn't disclose enough information about its packaging materials, despite packaging being a large portion of the industry's emissions and waste footprint. It is lacking reporting on its energy strategy, water efficiency measures, emissions measurement, emissions data, emissions reduction targets, offsets, supply chain details, and labor practices.
