our Work
The EcoBeautyScore Association work is based on
four pillars.
A science-based method
for measuring environmental impacts throughout the life cycle of products, based on the principles of the European Union’s PEF scientific method.
A database
of environmental impacts of standard ingredients and raw materials used in formulas and packaging.
A harmonized scoring system
containing a score range enabling the consumer to easily compare products.
A tool
usable by non-experts, that enables each brand to calculate the environmental impact of individual products and the associated scoring.
