Elate Cosmetics
For many of us, putting on makeup is an automatic act, a routine. At Elate Cosmetics, they believe everyday routine becomes ritual when the action is more meaningful than the outcome. They believe true beauty is in the ritual itself. The small measures of self-care we afford ourselves daily are the seeds of self-love we plant to grow more confident, more powerful and more beautiful then we could ever imagine.
Elate Cosmetics wants to empower all women to make healthy choices and use the best possible products for their daily ritual. Products that support women in need, and are kind in every way possible. Putting on mascara, isn't going to change the world. But, it may change your perception of yourself, just a little, so you can. Elate cosmetics won't compromise your skin, your lifestyle, or the earth. Beautiful colors, skin loving ingredients, and sustainable packaging.
Everything about Elate Cosmetics is well thought out and seeks to be as kind and ethical as possible. The bamboo packaging is from China where they work with a Certified Fair Trade manufacturer and is water (not chemically) treated. Their ingredients are about 90% organic. While striving to make their ingredients as organic as possible they choose fair trade over organic if it is not possible to have both, because they feel it is important that every person involved in the making of their cosmetics is treated ethically and fairly.
Elate Cosmetics is also about reducing waste. The pressed powders come in seed paper that you can plant in your garden to grow wildflowers or herbs. The pressed powder tins are magnetized to fit perfectly in their bamboo compacts and palettes. All Elate products are vegan, cruelty free, toxin free and gluten free. Elate is certified by PETA, Leaping Bunny, and have signed the Just Beautiful Pledge.
