When beauty meets nature

THERE is now more awareness of the damaging impact that beauty products can have on the environment, whether in the form of non-recyclable packaging or harmful formulas.

In line with this Tanamera is helping Malaysians to play their part to reduce this impact.

It has introduced the Zero Waste Initiative, offering a selection of its products that are available for refills for customers who bring their own containers to selected Tanamera stores.

As a beauty consumer, there are plenty of small daily changes that one can make to reduce the impact on the environment, including adopting a more natural beauty routine, opting for brands with responsible packaging and supporting skincare brands that use sustainable ingredients.

Little steps in the right direction can make a big impact.

Tanamera uses raw materials sourced from the rich soil of the tropical rainforest in its range of products.

The company's products are also formulated as naturally as possible, where the use of artificial colouring, perfumes, active chemicals and preservatives are avoided.

To complement these natural products, Tanamera uses mainly unbleached recycled paper and glass bottle packaging.

For safety and practical reasons, recyclable plastic bottles may also be used but are kept to a minimum.

Tanamera's Zero Waste Initiative aims to further reduce waste and be more environmentally conscious when it comes to its products and packaging.

Now, customers are able to bring their own containers to selected Tanamera stores to refill their favourite products. Customers can get their containers weighed, sterilised and refilled with the product of their choice, from the available range offered by Tanamera.

The selected refills will be charged per gram and customers are able to fill up as little or as much as they want – this means they can now be financially thrifty while being environmentally friendly.

The list of products which can be refilled include the Tanamera Kidz Shampoo and Body Wash which is 100 per cent formulated from naturally derived Ingredients and the Tanamera Scalp Cleanser for hair health which removes excess oils without harsh chemicals.

The brand's anti-bacterial body wash and hand wash can also be refilled as well as its pure soap flakes, a vegetable based soap with no added preservatives.

The Tanamera Zero Waste Initiative is available at its retail outlets in Starling Mall and Sunway Pyramid.
