Action Project: Well Beauty
(Science Meets Nature to Create the New Model of Integrated Well Beauty) led by the brilliant Jeeta Mona and Raya Khanin.
Clean beauty has clearly caught on and is driving industry change. The term, however, remains loosely defined, largely misunderstood and falls short of fully integrating wellness and beauty, and driving sustainability, biodegradability and up-cycling across the beauty ecosystem. The Well Beauty action project sets its sights on standardizing terms and creating pathways for those interested in developing the next generation of natural, scientifically integrated products, while eliminating consumer confusion and industry ambiguity.
