Clinically Proven. Seriously Sustainable.
Have you heard of Codex Beauty? As a clean beauty blogger, I hunt for outstanding skincare brands to review that are effective and sustainable. When I looked into Codex Beauty, they checked ALL my boxes in terms of brand values, ingredient list, effective formulas, and price-point.
This high-tech clean beauty brand seeks to set new industry standards by creating data-driven, high performing skincare. Their range of products are built on science, natural ingredients, food-grade preservatives, pharmaceutical-grad processes, safety and efficacy trials, sustainability, and consumer transparency. If I was a skincare brand, I would want to be just like Codex Beauty!
Why do they rock my socks??
Environmental Stewardship
Zero plastic. Codex uses green, plant-based polyethylene tubes, a sustainable plastic alternative extracted from sugarcane waste to decrease their carbon footprint. Smart Transportation. To maintain a low carbon footprint, they carefully engineer packaging designs to ensure shipping efficiency. Organic Sourcing. They use wild harvesting techniques to select organic and naturally hardy plants.
Highly Effective + Safe Ingredients
Codex Beauty’s team of herbal scientists, chemists, and dermatologist formulate effective, safe, and pure formulas from plants! They use herbal science and modern tools to deliver the maximum benefits from botanical ingredients to your skin. These ingredients can be incredibly anti-inflammatory, rich in antioxidants, tissue regenerating, circulation improving, and hydrating. No synthetic chemicals, only plant-based emulsifiers, preservatives and stabilisers.
Reviewed // Bia Collection
The Bia Collection is made in Ireland and draws on the potent ingredients from the Irish landscape to soothe and nourish skin.
An exfoliating wash gentle enough for everyday use. Jojoba grains exfoliate without irritating the skin, castor oil clears pores and impurities, and milk thistle soothes. This wash effectively cleanses, isn’t stripping, and leaves my skin feeling soft and toned. Creamy texture with $45 on their site. All skin types.
A beautiful lightweight daily facial moisturizer that hydrates and softens skin. One of my favorite day creams! Creamy but light, very hydrating, and melts into my skin. Calendula and Serrated Wrack moisturize skin and improve the skin barrier function. Green Mandarin Oil helps balance the skin. Sodium Hyaluronate for smoother, softer skin. $70 on their site. All skin types.
A cooling and brightening eye gel that’s been clinically proven to reduce puffiness and dark circles over time. Absorbs super well and feels soothing – I love it! I haven’t noticed a difference yet with my under-eye circles (I may need to use it longer). Cucumber helps plump and cool the under-eye area. Arnica Oil helps with puffiness. Aloe Vera soothes and hydrates. $65 on their site.
Thanks for stopping by to read about Codex Beauty! For full transparency, these products were gifted, which helps me out so that I can afford to try, experience, and review new brands on Glean & Glow!
