Why Our Packaging Choices Matter for the Long Run

The beauty industry has long relied on virgin plastic and single-use materials, but we believe in doing better. Our transition to post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic is an essential step toward reducing environmental impact—not just right now, but for years to come. PCR plastic gives existing materials a second life, reducing reliance on fossil fuel–derived virgin plastics. Over time, this shift decreases waste, cuts carbon emissions, and encourages a circular economy—one where resources are reused rather than continuously extracted.

Wherever plastic is necessary, we’re actively converting components to PCR, and we’re committed to ensuring that any new packaging introduced into our line is PCR as well. It’s not an overnight fix—it's a long-term investment in reducing our environmental footprint.

Choosing Renewable Materials for a Renewable Future

Some products call for alternatives beyond traditional plastics. That’s why select Boom Beauty favorites, like Boom Scrub and Boom Gloss, now come in sugarcane biopolymer tubes. Sugarcane is a renewable resource that naturally captures carbon as it grows, providing a long-term benefit that extends beyond the final product.

Similarly, our Boom Silver Intensive Conditioner is packaged with ocean-waste plastic, collected from vulnerable coastal regions to prevent further harm to marine ecosystems. With each production run, we help reduce the flow of plastics into our oceans while strengthening the infrastructure behind global cleanup efforts.

Sustainable Pencils: PEFC-Certified Wood in Our Eye & Brow Products

Even our eye and brow products are designed with long-term environmental responsibility in mind. The wooden barrels used in our Pure Precision Eyeliner and Iconic Waterproof Brow Pencil are made with PEFC-certified wood—a globally recognized certification that ensures forests are managed sustainably, ethically, and with respect for local communities.

PEFC certification prioritizes:

• Long-term forest health

• Protection of wildlife habitat

• Ethical working conditions and fair wages

• Responsible harvesting that supports forest regeneration

  
  

By choosing PEFC-certified materials, we help preserve forests for future generations while reducing reliance on plastics and other non-renewable resources. It’s a small detail with enormous long-term impact.

Ethical Craftsmanship That Supports Lasting Community Well-Being

Sustainability is also about people. Our Boom bags are made from GOTS-certified organic cotton and produced in a Fair Trade–certified facility, ensuring artisan workers earn fair wages, work in safe environments, and enjoy long-term economic stability.

These standards help uplift communities and preserve traditional craft—not just now, but for generations.

Our Promise for the Future

We know sustainability isn’t a destination—it’s a journey of continuous improvement. It’s a commitment to learning, evolving, and choosing better ways to create products that honor your skin and protect the world we share.

At Boom Beauty, we’re dedicated to:

• Expanding our use of PCR, renewable, and responsibly sourced materials

• Innovating sustainably across all product categories

• Reducing waste throughout our supply chain

• Supporting ethical labor and fair trade

• Choosing ingredients with long-term environmental benefits

These decisions may seem subtle in the moment, but their long-term impact is powerful. When we choose better materials, we reduce future waste. When we choose sustainable forestry, we protect forests that will stand long after us. When we support ethical production, we help build resilient, thriving communities.

This is the future we’re working toward—one product, one decision, one improvement at a time.
