The cosmetics industry is responsible for a large portion of environmental waste, but Ren Skincare is aiming to change that, through launching an eco-friendly beach clean-up program alongside the Surfrider Foundation. Through the program, the sustainable skincare brand will aid in the cleanup of over 300 beaches throughout Europe, Australia, and the U.K. This move serves as an extention of the brand's initiative to be 100% sustainable by the year 2021.
In a press release, Arnaud Meysselle, CEO of Ren Clean Skincare, said "Since Ren Clean Skincare launched in East London in 2000, we have embraced our role as beauty industry activists and have never stopped looking for ways to improve the efficacy of our clean skin-care products and to reduce the environmental impact of our brand."
