Plastic Free July - Let's make the world a better place

Plastic Free July is a worldwide movement that helps millions of people be part of the solution to plastic pollution, and it is something that we are super excited about here at TanOrganic, especially this year!

We want to make a real impact by spreading kindness and giving back to the planet with every product we make. This is why we have began our partnership with repurpose Global! This means that for each bottle of TanOrganic bought, 1lb of plastic will be removed from the ocean.

This July, we would LOVE for you to join us in our efforts to combat plastic pollution! We encourage all of our fabulous customers to go Plastic Free for the month – small habits are a huge step towards a cleaner planet!

Throughout the month, we will share useful tips and tricks on how each of us can make a step in the right direction. Keep an eye out for some informative Instagram posts & more blogs! In the meantime, let me tell you about the steps we have taken here at TanOrganic to ensure that we are playing our part too…

We are as kind to your skin as we are to the planet.

 

Our Packaging 

Here at TanOrganic, sustainable packing is a promise & a priority. From the beginning, we set out to produce high end cosmetics that avoid using normal single use plastic to preserve the integrity of our products. Instead, we use glass bottles and bamboo packaging as they’re 100% recyclable and biodegradable

 

Our Purpose

We’re participating in rePurpose Global’s One for One Impact Guarantee Program. This means that for every TanOrganic bottle we sell, we’re funding to remove and recycle 1lb of plastic from the ocean in Goa, India. Essentially, it only takes one TanOrganic purchase to remove 8 plastic tan bottles from the environment!  

Giving Back

Through this initiative, TanOrganic is boosting waste workers’ income by attaching value to hard-to-recycle plastics, while supporting experienced recycling social enterprises who holistically uplift ex-waste pickers through occupational safety, health insurance, and skills training

 

We know our products aren't going to save the world, they can, however, remind us everyday that we can make small decisions towards a cleaner planet. Every step we take at TanOrganic is designed to respect our people and our planet, so that our boxes are filled with a purpose when they arrive at your door. Through innovation, inspiration and positivity - our mission is to make the world a better place, one golden glow at a time!

You can wear the change you want to see in the world. It’s your tan, and it’s your planet. So, make a change today, for the good of TanKind!

A message from our founder:

“At TanOrganic, we are as kind to your skin as we are to the planet. As pioneers in beauty, we recognize the magnitude of the industry’s plastic problem, and we acknowledge our responsibility to clean up after ourselves. We can help make a difference and partnering with rePurpose Global gives us the opportunity to make a significant impact to our lives, and others less fortunate than us. We have one earth, and it’s our duty to look after it. We have seen the devastating amount of waste generated every day by our industry, so to us, the urgency of this crisis was impossible to ignore and we decided to step up. Our planet needs us and TanOrganic is taking strong strides to protect her.” - Noelle O’Connor, founder and brand creator of TanOrganic.
