Our Eco-Friendly Philosophy
Mineralogie is one of the leading manufacturers and distributors of 100% mineral makeup and our entire company is built on the values of the consistently evolving, health conscious, beauty industry. As a member of the global marketplace, we understand the impact our products and packaging have on not only the consumer, but on the environment. In 2008, our founder and CEO, Mary Van, embarked on a corporate wide "green transformation" and it has been and will continue to be a proud commitment for our team and our brand. We feel it is essential for our industry and others to embrace eco-friendly solutions. We strive to combine our healthy approach to cosmetics with our corporate responsibility to maintain a 'beautiful' company both inside and out.
