Why Saie Beauty Checks All the Sustainable Boxes:

1. Plastic Negative
Saie is no stranger to earning and maintaining badges of honour in the eco-friendly space. Being plastic-negative is just the type of the iceberg. But usually, when people think about sustainability they tend to think of plastic and the packaging that things come in.
Having a product packaged in plastic doesn’t negate the other sustainability initiatives a brand may have. I’ve always said, plastic is not the end all be all when it comes to the climate fight. But Saie is taking extra precautions by being Certified Plastic Negative.
This means that for every product they sell, they contribute a certain amount to programs that remove more plastic from the environment than what they create.
2. Climate Neutral Certified
This is, in my opinion, one of the best certifications a brand can have. We all know how harmful carbon emissions are from the food we eat, the cars we drive, the planes we travel and even cow farts. (Yes, you read that right.) It’s not hard to notice that lowering our carbon footprints is one of the most impactful ways we can help out the planet.
One of the best ways is by supporting brands that are climate-neutral certified like Saie! This means for all of the carbon that they create by making their products, running their warehouse, shipping products, etc, they offset by investing in various carbon drawdown projects.
3. Carbon Neautral Club
Saie takes it one step further than just offsetting the brand’s emissions but by being apart of the Carbon Neutral Club they offset their employees’ carbon footprints by finding forest conservation projects. How amazing!
4. Leaping Bunny Certified
The absolute bare minimum brands should be doing to care for our planet is caring for its inhabitants. Saie shows this by being Leaping Bunny Certified Cruelty-Free. Because you’d be surprised how many brands (or their parent companies) aren’t.
5. 1% For the Planet
Brands that are a part of 1% for the planet, donate 1% of their annual earnings to various environmental non-profits. Saie specifically supports two ocean conservation projects: The Coral Restoration Foundation and The Rozalia Project, both of which work to preserve our coral reefs and educate us on the importance of keeping our oceans clean.
Some brands check some of these boxes but a lot don’t even check one. Saie is a truly sustainable, climate-friendly, makeup brand that doesn’t hide and doesn’t need to boast. The proof is in the powder. (Blush, that is)
