Is lip gloss fair trade

Answer 1

Not all lip gloss is fair trade. There are various ways that lip gloss can be called fair trade. It can be certified at the product level if all the ingredients are fair trade and it was manufactured in a way that meets fair trade certification. There is currently no lip gloss certified fair trade at the product level. If one is looking for ethically produced lip gloss, one can find lip gloss in which some of the ingredients may be fair trade or otherwise certified as ethically sourced. Dr. Hauschka and the Body Shop are examples of brands that use some ethically sourced ingredients. Additionally, lip gloss is more likely to be manufactured under humane conditions if it was made by a socially responsible company and in a country with strong enforcement of labor rights, such as the US or certain countries in Europe.
