Ilia Beauty
Ilia Beauty is rated Fair because it has started to improve its products and packaging, but still has room to grow.
Ilia Beauty has committed to avoiding select ingredients that pose a threat to the climate, including parabens, phthalates, other petrochemical-based ingredients, and harmful suncare ingredients. It offers recycling/disposal guidance for all products and has a container takeback partnership to help lower its waste footprint.
However, Commons found that this brand still uses some ingredients that pose a significant threat to the climate, including microplastics, other petrochemical-based ingredients, and uncertified palm oil-derived ingredients. It uses a mix of packaging materials, including glass, unidentified plastic, and recycled aluminum. It doesn't share information on its energy strategy, emissions, or labor practices.
