How it works
We’ve made getting started with the L'Occitane Free Recycling Program easy! Simply bring your used beauty and skincare packaging to any L'Occitane Boutique near you and L'Occitane will then send the empty packaging to TerraCycle to be recycled.
Get Started
Participating in this program is easy and FREE! See answers to frequently-asked questions here.
All brands of empty skin, beauty and hair care products can be recycled through the program (full or travel-sized), including:
-
Beauty packaging such as lip balm tubes, makeup remover bottles and pumps, fragrances bottles and pumps, and deodorant sticks
-
Skincare containers such as face mask packaging, eco-refill pouches, and dispensers and tubes for soap, facial cleansers and body lotions
-
Hair care packaging such as pumps and caps from shampoo and conditioner bottles, hair care dispensers and containers, hair product trigger heads, and eco-refill pouches
This program does not accept:
- Aerosol cans
- Nail polish bottles and nail polish remover bottles
- Make up wipes or cloth face masks
- Any bio-medical or bio-hazardous waste
Outer cardboard packaging can be recycled with your local council, so please don’t include this in your shipment to TerraCycle.
No, you do not need to clean the packaging before dropping it off for recycling, but please remove as much of the remaining product as possible before dropping it off at a participating store. Dripping items will not be accepted, so please make sure your items are dry.
L'Occitane sponsors this national recycling program making it free for you to participate.
Discover Our Recycling Process
Once collected, the beauty and skincare packaging are cleaned and separated by material type. The fibres and plastics are recycled into raw formats that manufacturers use to make new products.
