Avon announces a 10-year plan and sustainability goals to make every product greener from production to usage
IF you’re thinking of making the shift towards a greener lifestyle, there is no better time than now. Climate change worsens every year, so it’s critical to get everyone to do their part for the planet. It doesn’t have to be in one go, but it is important to make a shift soon—and Avon believes that women can lead this initiative.
As part of Natura & Co, Avon shares its Commitment to Life, which covers three important aspects: addressing the climate crisis, defending humanrights and gender equality, and embracing sustainability in business.
Progress through Products
NOW every Filipina can do her part in making sure the next generation will have a chance to live in a cleaner Philippines, and this is possible when you choose Avon.
The global beauty and fashion brand recently announced a 10-year plan with specific sustainability goals, to make every Avon product greener from the moment it is produced until after it is used.
By 2030, the goal is to have all Avon products be made using only sustainable methods and resources, to improve production by reducing water consumption, while generating less waste and carbon emissions. Even packaging will be reusable, recyclable, or compostable.
The shift has already started with Avon’s new Beauty+ products, which offer an extensive catalogue for everyday life. From reusable kitchen helpers, vegan faux leather accessories, intimate apparel made with upcycled materials, and even eco-resin jewelry. Each day you can get a step closer to becoming more planetfriendly. Check out these products at www.avonshop.ph.
Partnering for the Planet
ARE you stacking up on empty avon containers or are you worried where your trash might end up? Look no further because Avon has partnered with environmental and social enterprise, The Plastic Flamingo, so that containers of your favorite Avon products can now be recycled or repurposed. There are two ways to do this: contact Avon reps to collect empties, or visit one of the twelve collection sites all over Metro Manila. Each plastic collected will be sorted and will either be sold to recycling plants, or be transformed into industrial grade

“We want to ensure that Filipinos nationwide will soon have access to these initiatives so we can do our part in shifting consumers preferences towards sustainability” says Razvan Diratian, General Manager, Avon Philippines.
No action is too big nor too small when shifting to a sustainable lifestyle. When it comes to the beauty of doing good, Avon is ready to help you make a better world for all. For over 135 years Avon supports women’s empowerment, entrepreneurship and well-being and has donated over $1billion to women’s causes through Avon and the Avon Foundation. Learn more at www.
