HIGH IMPORTANCE. As of late beauty brands everywhere are pumping out refillable packaging designs in order to achieve a more sustainable product life cycle (and save us a few coins along the way).
Here are a few of our fav brands doing the most when it comes to sustainability. Whether you’re a beauty refill novice or confidant connoisseur, read about the products staying in our eco friendly rotation.
Its hard not to re-purchase any Emma Lewisham products, thats why the refills are a loyalists saving grace.
The refillable Emma Lewisham skincare range is designed to reduce carbon emissions by up to 74%. Buy a jar or a bottle once and refill it again and again! There are two types of refill options – pods and pouches. Most of the products have been designed with a refillable pod so that when empty, you simply pop out the empty pod, replace it with a new refill pod and send the empty one back to Emma Lewisham to be sterilised and refilled via the Emma Lewisham Beauty Circle. If you are a Beauty Circle Rewards loyalty member you will earn 50 points for every pod or pouch returned, earn 1000 points and receive a complimentary refill with your next purchase.
The other products are refillable using refill pouches. When your product is empty, you simply order a refill pouch, pour the contents into your empty vessel and then send the empty pouch back to them for recycling. The team over at Emma Lewisham are also actively exploring viable options for pouches that can be refilled.

RAAIE has just announced their Cocoon Ceramide Cream has a pod refill *and the crowd goes wild*
Once a nice but niche ideal it seems refillable beauty is permeating the mainstream. Since the beginning RAAIE has offered refills. The cult sculptural vessels can be collected for free and then refilled in their lab. Now the Cocoon Ceramide Cream has a pod refill – making the step faster for the consumer. Refillable skincare is a win-win as not only is it better for the environment and can reduce your carbon emissions by 70% (and it’s also cheaper). This much loved formula just got better, not only does it strengthen the skin barrier (our body’s natural way of locking moisture in), but the packaging alone is a work of art (perfect for your next bathroom shelfie).
