Tata Harper

A cancer scare in Tata Harper’s family inspired her to create a natural skin care line with products that are completely non-toxic. The majority of the packaging is made of glass that you can recycle and they are even conscious of the ink they use on their boxes, choosing a soy-based one that is easier on the paper recycling process. Get rid of dead skin cells with the brand’s Resurfacing Mask ($62, Allure) which contains natural acids that exfoliate the skin.

According to Allure, Axiology partnered with a women-run recycling company in Bali to reuse the paper products they hand collect from local businesses and organizations for its lipstick boxes.
