Waterless Skincare Balms

SBTRCT's Moisturizing Facial Balm Nourishes with Shea, Rosehip & Squalane

— January 26, 2021 — Fashion
SBTRCT is a skincare brand that's devoted to creating sustainable, solid skincare products and one of its standout products is a Moisturizing Facial Balm. To minimize waste and prolong the life of the solid balm, the brand created a bamboo pot for storing the waste-reducing skincare product. The vegan, plastic-free Moisturizing Facial Balm nourishes with ingredients like glycerine, shea butter, squalane and rosehip oil. When used daily, the product is estimated to last about eight to 10 weeks.

"SBTRCTivism" is the brand's approach to creating handmade products using high-quality ingredients. SBTRCT's founder Ben Grace says, “We call it SBTRCTivism: because frankly we think it’s a little bit ironic that an industry created to cleanse and care is making our planet a dirty place, and we want to help clean things up.”
