What are microplastics?
Microplastics are tiny plastic particles that are often invisible to the eye. In cosmetics and skin care, they are sometimes added to give products a smooth texture, as a binder or to create a gloss effect. Examples of microplastics in cosmetics include exfoliating particles in scrubs (microbeads), as well as liquid or soluble plastics left on skin or hair. Although these substances are often legal, more and more people are choosing microplastic-free products out of concern for their skin as well as the environment.
Why choose microplastic-free products?
Avoiding microplastics has several advantages:
- Better for the environment: Microplastics enter rivers and seas via shower water.
- Milder skincare: Products without microplastics often contain deliberately chosen ingredients.
- Fits with sustainable beauty trends: More and more brands are opting for clean beauty.
- Combination with other 'free from' products: Often also without sulphates, silicones and parabens.
A conscious routine starts, for example, with a shampoo without microplastics and a day cream without microplastics and parabens, so that your skin and hair benefit from gentle care without unnecessary additives.
Who are microplastic-free products suitable for?
- Sustainably conscious consumers who want to save the environment.
- People with sensitive skin or allergies.
- Users of clean beauty, vegan or natural skincare.
- Anyone who wants to combine their routine with sulphate-, paraben- and silicone-free products.
How do you recognise microplastics in cosmetics?
Microplastics are not always visible. On ingredient lists, you can recognise them by terms such as:
- Polyethylene (PE)
- Polypropylene (PP)
- Nylon-12
- Acrylates Copolymer
If you don't see these ingredients or it says microplastic free on the packaging, then you have a microplastic-free product.
