KEY TAKEAWAYS

• A lot of marketing language covers up the truth about the lack of awareness in the beauty industry. Only by raising our voices and making them heard can we get the message out there.
• When most people think of sustainability, they think of packaging. Packaging is only the tip of the iceberg. We need to ensure that other factors are added, including living wages to employees and waste management.
• Sometimes the fear of failing can hold us back from our dreams. However, we must balance this fear withe the fear of never trying at all.
