One Skin. One Planet. One Care.

Sustainable Skincare

Explore NIVEA’s approach to transforming the way we produce our skincare

 

 

What is sustainable skincare?

 

Sustainable skincare is designed with the planet and people in mind, featuring natural & naturally-derived ingredients and those that are sourced responsibly. With formulas that are made from renewable and eco-friendly materials, sustainable skincare aims to decrease our environmental footprint while still achieving effective results for your skin.

 

 

Why is sustainability in skincare important?

 

Your skin is your direct connection with nature. The rain, wind and sun touch it. And it breathes the air that surrounds you. 

We are one of the largest skin care brands in the world, and we know that you can only have healthy-looking skin in a healthy environment. That's why we take responsibility to protect our planet by aiming to provide more sustainable skincare. 

We care for the health of our planet by making sustainable skincare products, learn about how our achievements and targets to create sustainable product packaging.

OUR ACHIEVEMENTS IN SUSTAINABLE PACKAGING

Guided by the principles of the circular economy, we are on a mission to use plastic responsibly in our product packaging. Our approach is straightforward: we reduce plastic wherever possible, recycle plastic as much as we can, replace it when it makes sense, encourage our customers to reuse packaging, and continue to promote sustainability in skincare.

Find out how our achievements and targets to create sustainable packaging with recycled plastic or plastic-free material help us to prevent pollution, decrease our CO2 emissions, contribute to fighting against climate change, and encourage sustainability in the skincare industry.
