Beauty Kitchen

When chemist, botanist and sustainability expert Jo Chidley struggled to find natural and sustainable beauty products, she started Beauty Kitchen with her husband Stuart in 2014. All products at Beauty Kitchen are sustainable, contain only natural ingredients and work as they are supposed to work.

95% of Beauty Kitchen´s products are registered with the vegan society so you know they are completely plant based.  The other 5% are vegetarian and contain sustainably sourced beeswax which is a by product of the honey industry.

Beauty Kitchen has pioneered a new program called RETURN - REFILL - REPEAT. In this program, packaging is washed and reused, and not thrown away after just one use. Customers simply send their packaging back to BK and they will wash and reuse it in the next batch, which is obviously better than recycling (at the moment only available in the UK). All packaging at BK is designed with sustainability in mind.  From the compostable pouches to using FSC approved cardboard, from vegetable inks to precycled containers that can be returned to be reused in the one of a kind closed loop scheme.

Beauty Kitchen partners with the Plastic Soup Foundation to fight for clean oceans. The Plastic Soup Foundation leads the way on banning micro plastics from cosmetics.  All of BK´s products contain absolutely no micro plastics and 1% of all sales are donated to The Plastic Soup Foundation. Furthermore, Beauty Kitchen is the first high street beauty brand that became a B Corp in 2017 and the label is approved as cruelty free under the Leaping Bunny program.
