We believe that you shouldn’t have to compromise between having natural formulations and ones that actually work. Therefore we uniquely commission independent laboratories to perform in vivo (on people) and in vitro (in the laboratory) testing to ensure our products are scientifically proven to give you results.

Repurchasing Brighten Your Day Crème? By choosing to buy a Brighten Your Day Crème refill pod instead of a new jar, you'll reduce your carbon footprint by 63%, and approximately 0.51 litres of Arctic sea ice loss will be prevented through reduced carbon emissions.
Our Brighten Your Day Crème Refill Pod is made from plastic (PP#5). It is circularly designed to sit in our reusable Brighten Your Day Crème jar and be used over and over again. Once the pod is empty, return it to us through our ‘Beauty Circle’ initiative where it will be sterilised and refilled.
Our Brighten Your Day Crème Refill Pod box is 100% recyclable. Printed on environmentally responsible PEFC certified paper and printed using oil free, vegetable based inks with water based coatings, our boxes will biodegrade.
An in vitro study by an independent biomedical laboratory (2020) scientifically explored Illuminating Brighten Your Day Crème’s effect on rebuilding the skin's natural collagen production synthesis. Collagen gives our skin its bounce, strength and elasticity – as we age, our bodies naturally produce less collagen, which results in increased fine lines and wrinkles.
Illuminating Brighten Your Day Crème is scientifically proven in vitro to rebuild the skin's natural collagen production synthesis at a cellular level.*
In a six week in vivo, customer study (2020) 50 participants of all ages, ethnicities and skin types explored Illuminating Brighten Your Day Crème’s effect on their skin’s glow and hydration.
- 90% of participants said Illuminating Brighten Your Day Crème enhanced their skin’s glow.
- 86% of participants said Illuminating Brighten Your Day Crème enhanced their skin’s hydration.

By purchasing a refill you are reducing your impact by:
We think endlessly producing new things instead of using what we have makes zero sense. Why would we extract new things from the ground, use more energy, more water and produce more carbon, when we can use the valuable materials we already have. It also makes zero sense to recycle* things after a single use (using more energy and omitting more carbon) when they are strong enough to last many uses! Sounds silly doesn’t it? We agree. It’s time to go circular. Let’s keep our precious resources in circulation and lower our impact together.
Disclaimer - Did you know that even your ‘100% recyclable’ beauty packaging isn’t being recycled through your kerbside collection? Despite being technically recyclable, the economics don’t stack up, so to landfill it goes. This is why we take responsibility for all our packaging and partner with specialised recyclers as part of our Beauty Circle initiative.
