Palm Oil Free Promise from Lucy Bee
A big part of our ethical ethos is caring for the environment and it’s for this reason that we choose not to use palm oil or any of its derivatives in our products.
Palm oil is used in numerous everyday products from foods, to makeup and skincare and the huge increase in demand has led to mass deforestation to make way for the planting of oil palm trees. With its negative effects on the environment, habitats and livelihoods, we have made it our mission to create products which do NOT use palm oil.
This is not easy, especially when you consider that many ingredients used in skincare include a derivative of palm oil, and it’s not always obvious that it’s been used. For example, some emulsifiers are sourced from either palm oil or coconut and the manufacturer of the emulsifier may not differentiate the source. We can confirm that no derivatives of palm oil are used in any of our products.
