Dear Humans,
Today I shall elucidate the slow death and ugliness your vanity products have brought upon to my beautiful world. As I have mentioned before, there are environmental consequences throughout the life cycle of any beauty products. It starts from the production process where you create artificial scents in your fragrance products like perfumes and air fresheners or exploit unsustainable methods such as mass production of plastics and palm oil.
Those who consume are as guilty. You create demand for these products and continue to support these unsustainable brands. “When I falter, you falter”, as you use the fragrance products indoors – not only does it harm me, it fosters toxicities in your very own home environment. Together with the production of beauty products, at the End-of-Life of these products – they continue to pollute and destroy my land, my ocean and my skies. I implore you to recognise that you are pursuing your beauty at the expense of mine.
There are many possibilities for our beauties to coexist. Changes and modifications to be made at every stage of the beauty products’ life cycle such as more sustainable methods of productions and your participation in take-back programmes to facilitate better disposal. I will expand various stages of the life cycle to help you better understand and see the destruction you have failed to see. This time, let’s be beautiful together.
Calm and peaceful vibes,
Mother Nature
