According to Euromonitor, in 2018 the US beauty industry produced nearly 7.9 billion plastic packaging units. The vast majority of this packaging will end up in a landfill. Rather than being part of the problem, we want to be part of the solution.
All Bright Body products are packaged in refillable glass and aluminum or compostable cardboard packaging.
We are proud to offer a zero-waste refill program.
When you're ready to reorder your favorites, get yourself a Refill Pouch. It's $2-4 cheaper than full packaging and it's zero waste.
If you've got a stash of 3 or more empty pouches, make a note at checkout and we will include a mailer and prepaid shipping label.
When your order arrives, squeeze out your pouch into your (cleaned out) original packaging.
Then, return your empty pouch via the mailer and label included in your shipment.
Have fewer than 3 empties on hand? Hold onto your empties for now.
When we get your empty pouches, we pop them into our Terracycle Zero Waste Box just for these kinds of pouches. We also recycle your mailer.
It's a fully zero waste program that saves money while saving the planet.
If it's squeezable, we're puttin' it in a pouch!
Some products are either too viscous or too small to put in pouches, so they'll always be available in their regular packaging.
The excluded products are: Clear Skin Potion, Eye Elixir, Whipped Body Cream, Light Facial Cream, and Deodorant. The good news is all these products come in glass or compostable cardboard, both of which are easily recyclable through your residential recycling program.
As of February 2020 we are no longer offering rebates on empty containers. The process of cleaning and sanitizing bottles is extremely costly and in order to continue afford to do the right thing by the environment, we cannot offer rebates.
As of August 2020 we only offer return shipping labels for customers who live further than 15 miles away from Bright Body Boutique located in the Carytown district of Richmond, VA. Those within 15 miles are always encouraged to return their empties in person!
As of May 2021 we are no longer accepting empty containers as we make the switch to the pouch refill method.
