It is unclear how long their sheet mask takes to decompose as waste (under normal conditions)*****
we have asked for brand more clarity

**unclear if this is asbestos free / we have asked brand for more information

*****zoobop recommends using eco-friendly masks instead of single sheet masks.
There is not enough data on waste from single use sheet masks yet but numbers can be similar to that of single use make up wipes that are thrown away by the millions every day. These can take hundreds of years to break down in a landfill.

Brand uses Plastic and Tin for most products packaging
Though Parent brand claims to be working towards recycling plastic, we find that they are equally responsible for contaminating the planet too.
Post-consumer collection of packaging components is not available in all areas where products are sold.
In developing and third world countries all waste & plastic ends up in landfills.
We are unclear on the recycle policy / decompose time of their single use sheet masks - we have asked the brand for more clarity on this*.

*it always best to write to the brand for more details on an ingredient origin.

Though brand is transparent with labelling, they need to clearly indicate transparency in sourcing of ingredients like Mica.
