About this episode

Imagine a beauty industry that gives back more to the environment than it takes. That’s the crux of this week’s Green Beauty Opinion in which podcast host and Formula Botanica CEO Lorraine Dallmeier explores the concept of regenerative beauty.

This revolutionary approach isn't just about reducing beauty’s environmental impact; it's about actively enriching our planet, starting with the soil beneath our feet.

With a focus on fostering biodiversity, enhancing ecosystems and challenging the beauty industry to shift to truly regenerative practices, this episode is a call to action. But will regen beauty just be more greenwashing? Listen now to find out.
