A very Green Company: all of the packaging is made from 100% post consumer recycled material and they were the first Beauty company to manufacture with 100% certified wind power. Although involved in helping many causes all over the world, one of the biggest for Aveda is Earth Month. Each year during the month of April, Aveda works to raise money for the environment. Since 1999, over $22 million has been raised with $16 million over the last five years supporting clean water projects.
Aveda stems from ayurveda, the indian healing tradition based on the knowledge of life and the interconnectedness of all things. It has been proven over 5,000 years, that greater balance and well-being is the result of treating the whole person. Aveda creates their products by looking at not only the effects on hair or skin, but also on body, mind and emotion.
