How we're making a change
1. Natural, vegan and organic ingredients
We believe in using nature's resources respectfully. That's why we only use natural ingredients that are biodegradable, sustainably sourced, and have a proven effect for maintaining a healthy skin.
Our formulas contain 99% ingredients of natural origin with no animal derived substances.

2. Recyclable and recycled packaging
To preserve the planet we need to design for a circular loop. Our packaging is fully recyclable and are on average made from 61% recycled material. We use old fishing nets, water bottles and household waste.
If we demand more recycled materials, we can end landfill and ocean waste, support a circular economy and reduce the amount of fossil fuels from virgin materials.
3. We give back for every sale
We want to give back to nature. That's why we donate 1% of the sales to ocean cleanups and reforestation around the world. Through your purchase, you can actively choose which cause to support.

Why natural?
We develop clean formulas by choosing nature's best ingredients for your skin without compromising the quality of our products. Also, our formulas are vegan, cruelty-free and biodegradable.
A natural ingredient means that it has been derived from nature. By focusing on natural ingredients, we ensure that we're on first-name basis with our ingredients and understand where they come from. Also, we only choose natural ingredients from renewable sources to ensure we don't destroy wildlife.
However, a natural ingredient has to be effective to be considered relevant for our products. This means that if nature doesn't have an equivalent ingredient to a synthetic ingredient, we'll use the synthetic ingredient to ensure an effective and safe formula.
Having a science-based approach to choosing our ingredients ensures that we only develop products that are effective and clean on your skin, as well as in harmony with the environment.
While all our products contain organic ingredients, we strive to increase the proportion over time. Lots of studies have shown the positive impact on local farming and agricultural life, but at the current raw material prices, it would mean significantly higher retail prices.
Our formulas do not contain harsh chemicals, synthetic perfume, parabens, silicone, microplastic, sulfates, palm oil, phthalates, drying alcohol, aluminium or dyes.
Why recycled?
Most skincare packaging is made from fossil fuels which have a devastating impact on the environment. At Relevant, we don't believe the world needs more virgin material - we simply need to recycle what we already have.
That's why we use recycled materials across all our packaging. From old fishing nets, household waste to milk and water bottles.
And we think you should choose recycled too. Doing so means we can significantly reduce the need for fossil fuels in production, as our material can be recycled again and again. And the best part? By keeping it in a closed loop we can prevent landfill and ocean waste.
In many circles, plastic has a wrong perception. It's however one of the most sustainable packaging materials available. We just need to recycle it.
After having evaluated the material to alternatives and consulted multiple domain experts, we quickly decided on recycled plastic as our main packaging type. Here's why:
- It ensures the safety of our formulas.
- It's lightweight, making it easy, cheap and eco-friendly to ship.
- It emits less CO2e compared to alternatives like aluminium, paper and glass over their lifetime.
- Its molecular structure makes it easy to recycle again and again.
In addition, all our cardboard is fully recyclable and made from 100% recycled cardboard. It's also FSC certified, meaning that it's produced under sustainable conditions and for every tree we use, a new one is planted.
