Lip Lab

Lip Lab is owned by LVMH.

Our “Planet” rating evaluates brands based on the environmental policies in their supply chains, from carbon emissions to wastewater, ingredients' impacts, product circularity, and more. Here we rate Lip Lab “It's a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• There’s no evidence it uses any lower-impact ingredients.
• It uses some recycled packaging.
• It’s set a science-based target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in both its direct operations and supply chain, and it claims it’s on track.
• It publishes a policy to assess the biodegradability and environmental toxicity of some of its ingredients and formulas.
• A high proportion of its palm oil is RSPO-certified.

Workers’ rights are central to our “People” rating, which assesses brands’ policies and practices on everything from child labour to living wages and gender equality. Here we rate Lip Lab “Not Good Enough”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It doesn't disclose where all of its final production stage occurs.
• There’s no evidence it provides financial security to its suppliers, which can result in poor working conditions and wages.
• Its Code of Conduct covers ILO Four Fundamental Freedoms principles.
• It provides a confidential complaints mechanism for workers in its supply chain to report suspected modern slavery.
• It's a member of the Responsible Mica Initiative (RMI).
• There’s no evidence it ensures workers are paid living wages in its supply chain.

Note that the "People" rating in Good On You’s methodology is defined by labour rights and does not consider consumer health.

Brands’ animal welfare policies and, where applicable, how well they trace their animal-derived products, are the focus of our “Animals” rating. Here we rate Lip Lab “Good”. 

• It states that its entire product range is vegan.
• It has a non-animal testing policy that applies to ingredients and finished products, but its parent company does not exclude animal testing in all circumstances.

Based on all the publicly available information we’ve reviewed, we rate Lip Lab “It's a Start” overall.
