There’s something incredibly satisfying about giving something a second life, whether it’s turning an old jar into a plant pot or saving yesterday’s dinner for today’s lunch. Now imagine doing that with your skincare. That’s the idea behind UpCircle, our newest addition to the Nourished collection.
What makes UpCircle special?
UpCircle doesn’t just talk about sustainability, they live it, breathe it, and bottle it. This UK-based skincare brand has a simple, yet powerful philosophy: what is considered waste can be transformed into something beautiful and effective. They take by-products from the food and drink industry (think coffee grounds, fruit stones, and chai spices) and upcycle them into award-winning skincare.
UpCircle is proud to be:
+ Certified vegan and cruelty-free
+ Plastic-negative, with 99% recyclable or reusable packaging
+ B Corp certified, showing their deep commitment to people and planet
+ Champions of zero-waste skincare that doesn’t compromise on quality
From coffee grounds to skincare
Every formula is thoughtfully designed, proving that sustainability and effectiveness go hand in hand. You will find upcycled ingredients like arabica coffee grounds from artisan cafés to brighten tired skin. But also hibiscus acids from the food supplement industry to protect the skin and stimulate cell renewal. The UpCircle Peptide Serum is made with upcycled blood orange water that offers protection against environmental stressors, while simultaneously calming inflammation.
