Did you know that product packaging makes up almost 45% of the trash found in landfills? Luckily, many brands like MAC, Lush, and Kiehl’s have found creative ways to reduce that number—by rewarding you with a new product or a discount toward your next purchase when you recycle your empty products. Click the photo to learn exactly how it works.

Here’s a beauty launch that you really oughta know about: Alanis Morissette and Star Trek stud Zachary Quinto designed custom packaging for Kiehl’s! Both stars created limited-edition lids for the brand’s famed Ultra Facial Cream, and the collaboration is anything but “Ironic” for activists Quinto and Morissette—all proceeds from the upcoming launch will benefit Recycle Across America. (The Earth-friendly beauty brand enlisted the help of Rosario Dawson and Florence Welch for a similar project last year.) Keep an eye out for Quinto’s and Morissette’s designs when they land in Kiehl’s stores nationwide and kiehls.com later this month, just in time for Earth Day on April 22.

What does sustainability mean to actress Rosario Dawson? Or musician Florence Welch? Each star answered that question by designing the packaging on Kiehl’s Deep Pore Cleansing Masque, its latest eco-minded beauty product.

Eco-friendly beauty brand Kiehl’s is celebrating Earth Day by collaborating with Julianne Moore and three other socially conscious celebrities on limited-edition labels for their Açaí Damage-Protecting Toning Mist. “It was a no-brainer because I’ve been shopping at Kiehl’s for years,” said Moore. “I believe in the company and I hope my involvement will encourage my peers to generate awareness for socially responsible causes and to find new and innovative ways to be more kind to the planet.” The participants, including artist Jeff Koons, musician Pharrell Williams and model/surfer Malia Jones, had the chance to depict their vision of social responsibility on their label and the results are stunning! Bottles are now for sale at kiehls.com and will be available at Kiehl’s stores in April, with 100% of the profits donated to the Rainforest Alliance.
