Eco-Friendly Packaging for Sustainable Beauty
At Boba Blinks, we are committed to sustainability every step of the way, from our eco-friendly lashes to our kraft mailers to our sugarcane lash trays. We know we have more work to do, but we're committed to taking small steps and finding new and innovative ways to reduce the beauty industry's packaging waste.
Eco-Friendly Kraft Mailers
We source our Kraft mailers and inserts from sustainable suppliers in the USA. They are made from recycled materials and are 100% curbside recyclable. To further minimize our environmental impact, our Kraft mailers are sourced from SFI® Certified suppliers and uses digital print production with true water-based inks. Digital print production reduces excess packaging waste such as the need for print plates and tooling disposal. Water based inks are equally environmentally safe, non-toxic and a non-hazardous air pollutant.
Water Activated Tape
Our water activated tape is a key part of our eco-friendly packaging. It is made from biodegradable paper and activated with water instead of adhesives. This type of tape is fully recyclable and compostable, helping to reduce plastic waste. It provides a secure seal for our packages while being kinder to the environment.
Recyclable Cellophane Bags
Our cellophane bags are environmentally friendly but not biodegradable. They are made of 100% new oriented polypropylene, which is a reusable and recyclable plastic that is non-toxic, odorless, and acid-free. It is also considered one of the safest plastics, with a low to moderate hazard rating from the Environmental Working Group.
Ways To Reduce Waste
Here are a few ideas of what you can do once you're done unboxing your package:
- Recycle your kraft mailers and inserts.
- Repurpose your kraft mailers. They're too cute not to!
- Reuse your kraft mailers for other shipping needs.
- Reuse your lash boxes to store your lashes. Recycle them when you're done.
- Toss your sugarcane lash tray in the trash to start its natural decomposition process.
- Recycle your cellophane bags (only applies to certain products).
- Support other sustainable businesses.
