Credo Beauty launched its private skincare line offering its first collection with the key ingredient: vetiver root extract. All products also come in sustainable packaging to eliminate the need for virgin plastic. 

The Credo Skincare collection introduces six products comprising two cleansers and four moisturizers — which were carefully formulated for a decade.

All products contain the key ingredient vetiver root extract from Haiti, in which the components are helpful in protecting the skin barrier for a vibrant skin tone. It also reduces pores and wrinkles, improving skin texture, in general.

Meanwhile, the formulation and other main ingredients for each moisturizer vary according to different skin types: Hyaluronic acid for dry skin, bakuchiol for aging skin, vitamin C for dull skin, and calming botanicals for sensitive skin. 

For cleansers, vetiver oil was combined with babassu for dry skin and calming botanicals for sensitive skin. 

Credo moisturizers are retailed for $64, while the cleansers are priced at $44. The line also offers four hydration sets; Intense, Calm, Luminous, and Firm, which were sold for $100 per kit via credobeauty.com.

Living up to its legacy as a "clean" beauty retail pioneer, all products in the collection will come in sustainable packaging. The pumps and caps were created using a unique PCR resin and beauty waste packaging collected in the brand's physical stores nationwide. 

This campaign was led by Credo Beauty along with Pact Collective, a non-profit the brand co-founded with the aim of making beauty packaging from landfills. 

According to Happi, the collection utilized Pact's NewMatter material created using plastics from landfills and ocean, as well as hard-to-recycle materials, and upon its first run, it already decreased the need for virgin plastic by 500 kilograms.
