PLANET CONSCIOUS BEAUTY
PLANET CONSCIOUS BEAUTY

At Barry M, we love makeup but we love our planet more.

We’re a small, family-run business on a journey to become a better, more sustainable brand through our products, packaging and partnerships.

Discover the initiatives we have in place so far, helping us to leave a more positive impact on the world we love.

 

Cruelty Free & Vegan Beauty

We’re incredibly proud to be a cruelty free beauty brand since our beginnings in 1982! This means we have never tested our products or ingredients on animals, and we never will. 


In 2020, we became 100% vegan across our entire product range, so you can feel confident that none of our makeup or Nail Paints are made with any animal derived ingredients, or by-products.

Recyclability & Reducing Waste

As part of our journey, we’ve been focusing on reducing waste and lowering our environmental impact. We are continuing to challenge ourselves and our suppliers to deliver more sustainable and recyclable packaging solutions with each new product drop.

Here’s what we’ve achieved so far:

  • Around 70% of our product range is filled in our purpose-built factory, in North London, helping us to lower our global production impact. We take pride in being an independent, family-run business which started and continues to grow in London.
  • Reducing the use of virgin plastic within our products and utilising at least 30% PCR* (post-consumer recycled) or PET* (Polyethylene Terephthalate) plastic, which are 100% recyclable and a more environmentally friendly choice.
  • Introducing PIR* (post-industrial recycled) glass, which is reclaimed and repurposed to give the material a second life.
  • Removing all magnets, elastic bands and mirrors to ensure that our palettes are 100% recyclable.
  • All BarryM.com online orders are sent out in 100% recyclable packaging, so you can pop these straight in your home recycling bin after opening your haul (or even better, keep to reuse!). Our parcel bags, boxes and bubble wrap are all made with at least 65% recycled materials, too.
