Change the World 2025

One way to lessen the environmental impact of cosmetics and fragrances: make all of your containers refillable. Today, almost all of L’Oréal’s bestselling fragrances come in reusable containers. Overall, the number of L’Oréal products that can be refilled or reused has grown 17-fold since 2019. As a result, L’Oréal says, it has reduced its packaging intensity by 11% over that span—a meaningful figure for a company with 43 billion euro in annual sales.
