Introducing the world's first International Squalane Day

Biossance – a global leader in pioneering sustainable beauty through innovative biotechnology – will launch the inaugural International Squalane Day on October 14, in celebration of a project that changed the world.

Celebrations will begin in Australia on the eve of the global day, with an installation appearing in the iconic Bondi Icebergs Pool for two days and key guests/brand advocates joining together to raise a glass, toasting Biossance for all the good it has done and continues to do for our earth. Then, it’s off to the rest of the world to continue the festivities.

“We are so incredibly proud to launch the first International Squalane Day,” Biossance president, Catherine Gore, said. “Biossance was born in a lab, not a boardroom. Innovation is at the heart of the brand, alongside a team of scientists who reimagine ingredients and processes to create better products, more efficiently, with less environmental impact.”

Conserving Beauty announces new partnership

Australia's first water responsible beauty brand, Conserving Beauty has once again affirmed its commitment to sustainability by partnering with Provenance, the global leader in sustainable marketing technology.

Provenance allows for more transparency and connects brands and product claims with third party evidence so that customers have full visibility to make educated purchase decisions. Provenance protects shoppers from greenwashing by connecting ‘green’ claims to evidence from the supply chain or third-party verification.

Provenance works with tools called Proof Points. Proof Points are interactive icons representing a claim about a business or product. Using technology, they connect what brands say to real data from the supply chain. Each Proof Point is part of the Provenance Framework, a collection of 50+ jargon-free, easy to understand claims about social and environmental impact. This is sustainability, simplified.

Proof Points being used by Conserving Beauty include: Vegan, partly/widely recyclable packaging, The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification, compostable parts, donations to charity, female founded business, carbon offsetting, water footprint network and protecting water quality. It is also worth highlighting that Conserving Beauty is the first brand to be credited with a Water Network Membership Proof Point.

This is the first time an Australian beauty brand has integrated Provenance directly to its consumers. Provenance is an esteemed company with global brands such as The Ordinary, Weleda, Cult Beauty and Ganni as partners.
