play your part.

The unprecedented growth of the beauty industry has lead to an environmental cost we are all paying the price for. However consumers are now demanding more from the brands they use, especially when it comes to their contribution to the planet and society.

Can you have beauty without sustainability?

This is the question we’ll be asking at this special event looking at the role the beauty industry plays in our plight to save our planet.

We’re delighted to be showing a private screening of the film by leading beauty brand, DAVINES, Tomorrow and The Butterfly, an impactful film documentary demonstrating the intrinsic link between sustainability and the beauty industry.

Shortlisted for the Branded Content of the Year prize at the Content Innovation Awards, held recently in Cannes, it has been named an official selection of Around International Film Festival, Paris ,the Polish International Film Festival and Berlin’s Italian Film Festival.

After watching the film we’ll be hosting a discussion on what we can do as consumers, what brands need to play their part and which brands are leading the way in the industry.
