Responsible cosmetics - MonCornerB

Nowadays and more than ever, responsible cosmetics is an essential approach for conscious beauty enthusiasts.

But what does "responsible cosmetic product" really mean? Discover the different nuances and facets of this approach, as well as a recommendation of committed brands and respectful treatments to better understand the rise of this beauty experience.

What is a responsible cosmetic product?

A responsible cosmetic product is above all a product designed and created according to ethical and sustainable values, the objective of which is to minimize its environmental, social and health impact; and to respect human rights and animal welfare.

From the production chain, from the meticulous selection of ingredients to their use, including formulation, packaging and even distribution...no step is left to chance.

The responsible cosmetics that you will find on our online store are natural, non-toxic, and never tested on animals. Some of them are certified by an organic, vegan label and/or are part of zero waste cosmetics. Moreover, the packaging and other packaging are also carefully selected: glass, cardboard, kraft paper... Recyclable, reusable and/or biodegradable materials are in the spotlight!

Choosing and consuming ethical beauty products means making an informed and committed choice in order to encourage practices that are more respectful of our planet and the beings who live there.

Quality organic beauty products for a committed routine

An important criterion of the ethics of a beauty product is its quality.

Indeed, choosing a good quality natural care is a responsible gesture because it demonstrates an interest in the preservation of the planet and health. That's good, at MonCornerB, we carefully select all the products that we reference in order to pamper yourself, but also your environment!

A so-called "quality" care or makeup product is formulated responsibly, that is to say with the purest and most effective bio-sourced ingredients possible, without transforming their nature or finding potentially harmful and controversial substances. As a result, it does not deplete the Earth's natural resources, and improves the balance of the skin, thus preserving overall health.

By valuing quality within your beauty routine, you are following a path where every detail counts.

Ecological, eco-responsible, organic, 100% natural: the differences

The terms "ecological", "eco-responsible", "organic" and "natural", even though they all refer to the same subject, each have their own distinct nuances and their own definition. We explain everything to you to see more clearly!

• Ecological care or make-up focuses on its low environmental impact (also called "footprint"), from design to its "end of life".
• Eco-responsible cosmetics emphasize taking into account environmental and social issues from production to distribution, in particular by being part of fair trade.
• When we use the term "organic" on our e-shop, it means that the product is certified by a label ensuring that the ingredients come from organic farming, without chemical fertilizers or pesticides. Ecocert, Cosmos Organics, Natrue... each label has its very specific criteria, particularly in terms of concentration and the share of organic raw materials in the formulation.
• A natural beauty product is formulated, as its name suggests, with ingredients of natural origin, without the addition of synthetic products and components. It is not necessarily mostly organic, or cannot be (minerals, although natural, cannot be organic and therefore cannot be certified by a label).

Of course, one does not exclude the other, a product can be both natural, organic, ecological and eco-responsible. 100% of the products in our online store are natural. They are as ecological and eco-responsible as possible and a very large part of them are certified organic.

From marketing to consumption and purchasing, responsible cosmetics from all angles

The principle of responsible cosmetics is characterized at each stage of its life cycle, from its birth to the end of its use.

Many people think that responsibility and ethics are limited to the formulation of skincare or make-up, yet this approach extends well beyond that.

When designing, the brands make sure to opt for natural raw materials, free of harmful substances. At the stage of the manufacturing process, the cutting-edge processes comply with precise charters which highlight respect for raw materials, health and working conditions. Conditioning and packaging are not left to chance and are mostly made of eco-designed materials to limit the production of waste. Transport is done in the least harmful way possible for the environment, with the most suitable means of transport according to origin and destination.

Marketing campaigns (particularly on social networks) must also be responsible. They advocate respect, transparency, choice, authenticity, diversity and commitment. A responsible purchase is a thoughtful purchase, and in a totally secure way. Finally, consuming an ethical product also means taking advantage of clear information about it and enjoying it down to the last milligram or millilitre!

As you will have understood, at each stage of the existence of a beauty product, it is possible for companies and consumers to act responsibly, to adopt a holistic approach. Because let's not forget, it is by taking care of our planet and what (and those!) around us that we take care of ourselves best.
