SUSTAINABLE SKINCARE INGREDIENTS & FORMULATIONS

Nivea wants our skin to feel happy and healthy. As it connects us directly to nature, they are committed to making sure that their product formulations help our skin to live in a happy and healthy environment.

NATURALLY DERIVED & ORGANIC INGREDIENTS

Finding ingredients from natural material is an important step away from a fossil-based economy.

Whilst Nivea aims to increase the amount of naturally derived skincare ingredients within their product formulas, they carefully evaluate their skincare performance, as well as their environmental impact.

BIODEGRADABILITY

When developing skin care formulas, Nivea focuses on biodegradability which is one of their priorities.

By using biodegradable ingredients, Nivea makes sure that the materials they use can return to nature without harming the environment.

VEGAN COSMETICS

More and more people around the world commit to a vegan lifestyle as animal-derived materials do not reflect their values of living in harmony with animals.

At NIVEA, they provide their consumers a range of vegan skincare products that do not contain animal-derived ingredients.

COMMITMENT TO ZERO MICROPLASTICS

Microplastics are a source of both soil and water pollution around the world. Nivea took action early on to stop using microplastics in rinse-off products and promise to remove microplastics in all their products worldwide by the end of 2021.

Nivea’s SUSTAINABLE PALM (KERNEL) OIL

Due to its unique properties, palm (kernel) oil is a commonly used ingredient in skincare formulas.

The main issue with palm oil is that often large areas of rainforest are destroyed to make room for oil palm plantations.

At NIVEA, they are convinced that palm (kernel) oil must be obtained sustainably to protect rainforests from deforestation.

SKIN SAFETY & TRANSPARENCY

At NIVEA, they strive to develop products that consider skin safety, the environment, and consumers’ high skincare expectations.

To be transparent about their formulas and facilitate purchase decisions for sustainable skincare products, NIVEA provides simple yet detailed information on the nearly 600 ingredients they use.
