1% for the Planet accelerates smart environmental giving, prevents green washing, certifies reputable giving and provides accountability for environmental giving.
Certified Plastic Neutral
We are proud members of Repurpose Global and are a Certified Plastic Neutral Brand. We donate to Project Neela Sapana, the Impact Project to stop ocean-bound plastic waste from leaking into Chennai's coasts and protect the Bay of Bengal.
Sea Trees
MARA donates to Sea Tress to help combat carbon emissions by reforesting kelp off the coast of Palos Verdes Estates, California, Globally, kelp forests sequester as much as CO2 as the world's mangroves and annually, MARA helps reforest thousands of acres of kelp.
Eco-Friendly Components
MARA uses recycled and recyclable glass bottles. Our unit cartons are FSC-Certified and use low VOC UV vegetable-based inks, recyclable water-based coatings and have optimum packing design to minimize paperboard waste and reduce forestry burning. We also send product to customers in recycled kraft boxes with kraft crinkle paper, which are both recycled and recyclable, as to no create additional waste that just gets tossed upon opening.
Recycle With Us
We are currently re-vamping our recycling program. All glass bottles, pipettes and aluminum collars should be recycled with your home recycling. Silicone bulbs and PET plastic lip balms can be discarded in the trash.
Wild Collected Algae
Our proprietary blend is sustainably harvested via wild collecting in Ireland and France, a method similar to wild crafting that ensures algae colonies are not over harvested and stay healthy year over year.
Bioaccumulation & Eco-toxicity
Bioaccumulation occurs when certain chemicals build up in ocean ecosystems faster than they can break down, harming marine life over time. MARA formulates without these ingredients, choosing only clean, biodegradable, ocean-safe actives that align with our mission of responsible, algae-powered skincare.
Green Manufacturing Practices
We green manufacturing practice in place to reduce energy consumption, pollution, and help conserve natural resources.
At MARA, we believe beauty shouldn't be at the expense of our environment.
