“When it comes to banning harmful ingredients such as microbeads — those tiny plastic particles found in exfoliators — and coral reef-bleaching chemicals such as oxybenzone found in sunscreen, some beauty brands have been quick to act. “Microbead pollution and reef-damaging sunscreen are two subjects we’ve seen receive a good amount of attention from brands in terms of messaging and product redesign,” says Hago.
