Cosmetic Companies Who Care L’Occitane
Luxurious brand L’Occitane is committed to limiting the environmental impact of their actions and products and to improve the wellbeing of both their customers and employees. They always create packaging to be environmentally friendly by controlling the amount of packaging used and focusing on keeping it recyclable. They don’t claim to be perfect but continually promise to improve themselves, to be open to the world around us in the broadest sense. For over 30 years L’Occitane has supported local producers using traditional production practices. They help them to increase their production’s value through A.O.C. controlled-origin labels and organic certifications. They have mastered the management of the quality and traceability of the natural ingredients used through the entire production chain, from the planning to the distillation of the plants. The preservation of cultures that are in danger is also one of their priorities. When a plant is over-exploited, they chose to source it from cultivated land rather than harvesting it from its natural and fragile environment. They strongly believe that the world of organic products holds great potential and there are many possibilities to be explored. L’Occitane available at Thalia Center, Jeddah Mall, Star Avenue, Mall of Arabia & Red Sea Mall.
