Babo Botanicals
Babo Botanicals is owned by the company Expanscience Laboratories. Hilde evaluates parent companies rather than individual brands. You can read more about why we think this approach is more helpful for consumers on our blog.
Expanscience Laboratories is an interesting company. In addition to owning a couple of consumer-facing brands they also operate as an ingredient supplier for cosmetics companies. They have unique, yet credible goals, policies, and practices when it comes to ingredient safety and sustainability. For example, they have a goal of becoming a “regenerative” company by 2040, a goal that could align them well with a context-based approach to sustainability. Overall we like what we see and think there is a genuine effort to create positive impacts. We can see that this company likely would have scored even higher if they provided more comprehensive information related to their ingredient safety and benefits for people policies and practices.
