Operating with the planet in mind

Sustainability at the forefront

At Hudson Valley Skin Care, we're committed to implementing environmentally friendly practices into each aspect of our business and locally sourcing ingredients whenever possible. By prioritizing plant-derived ingredients sourced from local farms within the Hudson Valley region, we can reduce transportation emissions and support local agriculture at the same time.

Made Fresh in Small Batches

Making our products in-house helps minimize overall waste and lowers our carbon emissions. This also allows us to precisely manage our inventory so that no product goes to waste. This unique approach ensures that each product reaching our customers is of the highest quality, having been carefully monitored and fine-tuned throughout the production process. The attention to detail in our small-batch production guarantees fresher products and aligns with our commitment to environmental responsibility.

More Sustainability Efforts

We opt for eco-friendly packaging solutions when we can and hope to move into PCR (post-consumer resin) plastic in the future. These materials are recyclable, reduce our carbon footprint, and help to reduce plastic waste. Each product as of 2025 is labeled with a unique material made from crushed stone instead of traditional paper labels, which means no trees were cut down for our labels.

We ship each product directly from our facility, ensuring a streamlined and efficient process that cuts the emissions from shipping them to a distributor to ship to you. We also ship our orders using recyclable and biodegradable materials like packing peanuts made from starch.

We are always looking for new ways to improve our sustainability efforts; please reach out if you have any ideas or improvements you'd like to see.

Giving Back

Ethical practices are at the heart of everything we do. We’re committed to fair labor conditions, cruelty-free testing, and creating a safe, respectful environment for all of our employees and partners. Beyond that, we give back to our local community in small ways as well as donating 1% of our profits to American Farmland Trust, a cause that reflects our values by helping farmers stay on their land and protecting our agriculture.

This commitment highlights our dedication to social responsibility, transparency, and compassion. By supporting ethical practices, we strive to make a positive impact on both society and the environment, staying true to our core values and delivering on our promise to you.
