Over the past few years, consumers have become more aware of the environmental impact of their actions. This growing consumer consciousness has translated to a simple question: What are we putting on our skin? The attempts to answer this question have led to the rise of clean and sustainable beauty, whereby sustainability is no longer a niche beauty trend but a baseline expectation for consumers and beauty lovers. The demand is so great that it’s completely changed the trajectory of the beauty market, with some of the world’s most significant legacy cosmetic brands quickly buying up clean beauty brands, hoping to meet their bottom lines by meeting consumer demand for sustainable and ethical products.

Green Beauty Survey

Whether driven by financial interests or the fear of becoming obsolete, beauty giants are listening, or claiming to. After all, the actions of these beauty conglomerates with somewhat dirty habits raise the question of what ‘clean’ means, mainly because consumers have complained about their favourite brands losing their spark after being acquired by bigger companies.

Unfortunately, each brand’s term “clean beauty” appears to differ. Some claim it refers to excluding harmful ingredients like parabens or phthalates. For others, it’s more holistic, featuring the exclusion of toxic ingredients and embracing vegan and cruelty-free formulations, responsible sourcing, reduced packaged waste, and a lower carbon footprint. In other words, it’s not just about what goes into the bottle but also how it is made, used, and eventually—ideally—recycled or biodegraded.

In this special survey, we’re discussing all things green beauty. Whether you’ve had a green skincare thumb for a while or are starting to re-evaluate the impact of your beauty routine, this guide will help you make your beauty a little cleaner.

The section is divided into two:

• Magazine’s Picks: Specially curated by Longevity, this section features products from both fully green beauty brands and legacy companies working towards sustainability.
• Expert Picks: For this section, we consulted doctors to provide selections focusing on efficacy, safety, and science-backed ingredients, thus offering a more clinical perspective. All expert comments are taken verbatim.

Treatments for thinned lips

1. Hyaluronic Acid Dermal Filler with Anatomical Precision

“Rather than over-volumising, I favour a subtle, structure-respecting approach using a filler specifically designed for lips. Precise placement (based on deep anatomical knowledge) helps maintain natural proportions, prevents migration, and reduces the need for dissolving or repeat corrections. A natural result is the most sustainable one.” – Dr Debbie Norval

How it works:
LipLaseTM uses a laser to heat the deep layers of the lips and stimulate collagen production. The outer lip and surrounding skin are treated, along with the inner lip, to stimulate collagen from both sides. This ensures the lips are left fuller, smoother, and more youthful. There is no downtime or risk of bruising.

Expected Results:

Comfortable treatments: Uses a motion-based delivery that gently heats the follicles rather than zapping them all at once.” Speed: The large spot size enables speedy treatment sessions. Effective on all skin types.” – Dr Vanessa Lapiner

Breast Augmentation

1. Fatgrafting

“The use of fat grafting in breast augmentation is an increasingly popular alternative to breast implants. The benefits include softer and more natural outcomes, free from foreign bodies. Thus, no risk of implant leakage, foreign body reactions, capsule contracture, or the need to replace implants. Liposuction is used to harvest fat, allowing you to also slim down in those stubborn areas.”

“Unfortunately, it has its limitations. Only a modest increase in volume is possible (usually ½ to 1 cup size).
Up to 30-50% of the transferred fat may be reabsorbed by the body, requiring touch-up procedures.
Results can be unpredictable, and you may need multiple sessions to achieve the desired volume or symmetry. It can be more expensive than implants, especially if multiple sessions are required. Small lumps may form in the breast tissue, which can complicate the interpretation of mammograms.
Patients who seek moderate natural enhancement and have sufficient donor fat may consider this procedure, which avoids implants.” – Dr Nicolette Landman

Nose Augmentation

Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty

“Non-surgical rhinoplasty is a refined, minimally invasive way to enhance the shape and contour of the nose, without surgery, implants, or long recovery periods. Using hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers, we can achieve subtle, natural-looking results that bring balance and harmony to your facial features.”

“Beyond its aesthetic benefits, this treatment also supports skin rejuvenation. Hyaluronic acid promotes hydration, stimulates collagen production, and improves skin texture and elasticity in the treated areas—delivering both sculpting and anti-aging effects in one clean, efficient procedure.”

“From an eco-conscious standpoint, this approach eliminates the need for synthetic implants or surgical materials, resulting in a much lower environmental footprint. With no operating room waste, minimal downtime, and no reliance on permanent foreign materials, non-surgical rhinoplasty reflects a new era of clean aesthetics: regenerative, biocompatible, and mindful of both your body and the planet.” – Dr Nerina Wilkinson.

Excess Abdominal Fat

Fat Grafting, Liposuction &Clean Energy-Based Devices

“For those seeking to reduce excess abdominal fat while enhancing skin tone and texture, combining liposuction, fat grafting, and energy-based treatments—such as Morpheus8 or CoolSculpting—offers a clean, sustainable solution. This approach not only removes unwanted fat but repurposes it to restore volume in other areas of the body, reducing waste and eliminating the need for synthetic fillers or implants.”

“Unlike traditional surgical options that rely heavily on manufactured materials and often generate more post-operative waste, this method is rooted in biological harmony. Your fat becomes a regenerative tool—rich in stem cells that improve skin quality, elasticity, and collagen production—while energy-based devices work non-invasively to tighten and tone the skin without harsh chemicals or disruptive procedures.”

“The result? A holistic, body-positive treatment that’s gentle on your system, minimizes environmental impact, and aligns with conscious beauty values. It’s about working with your body—not against it—while making choices that support both your long-term wellness and the planet.” – Dr. Nerina Wilkinson.
