Izzy
Izzy is a woman-owned company based in New York City and was founded by Shannon Goldberg with the goal of creating a zero-waste beauty brand that would contribute to a brighter future, and provide beauty products that were clean, planet-friendly, and performance-driven.
Their products contain 94% less plastic than leading brands, and the plastic they do use is reground and recycled at their facility. Even the water from their patent-pending antibacterial cleansing process is reused, rather than dumped into the ocean.
All of their manufacturing takes place within a 400-mile radius, which means that their carbon emissions from transportation alone are exponentially lower than those of any other beauty brand. Compared to the industry standard, their products have a 78% smaller carbon footprint after 25 refills.
Not only are their products formulated by the same filler that currently services some of the world’s leading prestige beauty brands, but they are clean, cruelty-free, vegan-friendly, and free of gluten, GMOs, alcohol, oil, parabens, phthalates, silicone, and talc.
Izzy also donates a portion of proceeds from every purchase to three foundations that inspire them: the National Forest Foundation, Her Justice and Pencils of Promise.
