natural originally
We've always played by nature's rules. And we've written a few of our own, too.

mindfully made
Quality, transparency, kindness. That’s our mantra.
Ingredients from Nature
All our products are over 95% natural origin, without phthalates, parabens, petrolatum, or sodium lauryl sulfate.
Leaping Bunny Certified
Burt's Bees has been Leaping Bunny Certified for more than 14 years. We never test our formulas on animals or ask anyone to do so on our behalf.
Responsible Sourcing
We form strong, mutually beneficial partnerships with the communities where we source our ingredients.
Recyclable Packaging
Our packaging is recyclable curbside or through TerraCycle. We use recycled materials and choose easily recycled plastics.
Landfill-Free Operations
We’ve kept all of our operational waste out of landfills since 2010, diverting everything to compost bins, recycling centers, or waste-to-energy facilities.

revering our sources
From renewable electricity to plant-based plastics, we believe in a thoughtful approach to nature’s resources. After all, clean beauty isn’t just about ingredients — it’s about how we care for the people and places they come from.

cultivating communities
With the potential to improve the livelihoods of more than 16 million women working in shea, SheKeeper is introducing beekeeping and expanding sustainable shea processing capabilities in Ghana.
second-life hacks
Some of our packaging can go in the recycling bin, and some we can take back for another go-round. Find out which is which.
