It's time to celebrate with great enthusiasm, as we raise a toast to our remarkable achievement! We are immensely proud to announce that we have been awarded the title of Best Organic Brand in the inaugural Marie Claire Sustainability Awards.
We feel an overwhelming sense of joy at being honored in these pioneering awards, which are exclusively focused on recognizing environmentally responsible companies that are truly driving positive change in the world.
Our founder, Sarah Brown, shared her excitement by stating: “We are absolutely overjoyed to receive the Best Organic Brand award in Marie Claire's debut Sustainability Awards. I am a strong advocate for the idea that organic certification and sustainable practices are intrinsically linked. This core principle has guided the Pai business and our brand ethos right from our inception 13 years ago.
True sustainability extends far beyond merely selecting the appropriate packaging for your skincare products. It encompasses the very ingredients placed inside that packaging – their origins, cultivation methods, the welfare of farmers and their communities, and the eventual impact on our ecosystems when these ingredients are washed away as waste through our drains.
We have consistently practiced what we preach and actively championed discussions on the ethical aspects and proven effectiveness of organic ingredients. Receiving this recognition from Marie Claire is truly outstanding and reflects the dedication of the entire Pai team, who embody these values in their daily work.”
This acknowledgment of our steadfast commitment to sustainability fills us with immense gratitude – and we recognize that eco-conscious choices matter deeply to you as well. We have implemented significant improvements in our internal operations and remain dedicated to ongoing enhancements wherever possible.
Below, we highlight several key initiatives we are undertaking to protect both the planet and your delicate skin:
Packaging
In our warehouse, plastic usage has been reduced to under 10%. Additionally, we have achieved a 38% decrease in virgin plastic consumption, while integrating recycled plastic into 80% of our tubes. The other 20% consist of bioplastic derived from sustainably harvested, non-GM sugarcane.

Certification
Since 2008, we have held organic certification, serving as a trusted symbol of our authenticity. Our COSMOS organic certification confirms adherence to rigorous standards concerning ingredient sustainability, biodegradability, and organic composition.
This certification guarantees that we manage natural resources with utmost responsibility, employing processes that prioritize human health and environmental integrity. We undergo comprehensive annual audits and testing to ensure our high standards are consistently upheld without compromise.
Recycling and Returns
Nearly every component of your favorite Pai products can be recycled at home, and we handle the rest through our free recycling service. Furthermore, we provide free 90-day returns on all products, ensuring that no item ends up wasted, even if your preferences evolve over time.

Insights from the Marie Claire Judges
The judges from Marie Claire offered these glowing remarks about our brand: “The term 'organic' is often used loosely by companies seeking to appeal to environmentally aware consumers. However, Pai Skincare possesses the genuine qualifications to substantiate its claims. As a certified organic brand from day one, it has formulated and manufactured organically throughout its history.
All products are developed in-house, allowing Pai Skincare complete oversight of the supply chain, from initial formulation to final packaging. The COSMOS organic certification subjects the company to the highest benchmarks for ingredient sustainability, biodegradability, and organic content, all verified through independent evaluation.
Dedicated to establishing itself as the foremost expert in organic skincare, Pai works tirelessly to debunk myths surrounding organic beauty products while delivering formulations that perform exceptionally well and respect the environment. We are fully committed to supporting this vital journey.”
We are delighted that you share our enthusiasm for this path. A heartfelt thank you to every one of our devoted Pai supporters – your steadfast loyalty has been instrumental in our success. We invite you to join us in toasting this milestone (and remember to recycle that bottle afterward). Here's to continued progress!
