REPLENISH RESOURCES

At Kiehl’s, we recognize the need to give back to the environment, not just take from it. As part of our journey to circularity with Kiehl’s Mission Renewal, we are committed to minimizing waste while restoring and renewing key natural resources.

RE-FORMULATING FOR THE FUTURE

Since Kiehl’s began as an apothecary, we have sourced ingredients from nature for their power and efficacy when incorporated into our skincare. However, the realities of today’s environmental crises—including loss of arable land, biodiversity, and species extinction—mean we need to seek new methods, ingredients, and sources to continue to formulate for quality and efficacy without compromise.

OUR GOALS FOR 2030

100% of our formulas will harness the power of nature and science to maximize efficacy while minimizing impact through key activities including:

Sustainably sourcing abundant and renewable raw materials
Using circular processes and green transformation of raw materials
Reusing water in a manufacturing loop and powering production with renewable energy
