Food & Drink Awards 2023 | 9 BIOLUME CARE is a definitively vegan friendly company, with an ethos that encompasses what it is to know oneself, and reduce unnecessary product purchases. Much of the time, we don’t need as much as we think, and therefore there really should be no issues when it comes to living in a sustainable, environmentally caring fashion. There is no good reason to do harm to living creatures or the environment in order to achieve our own wants and needs. Especially considering there are alternatives, such as the all-natural plants and flowers being used by BIOLUME CARE. This forgoes, for example, the oft used beauty industry substance ambergris, which is derived from whales, and is used to manufacture perfumes. Furthermore, by concentrating on trying to reduce packaging, and use more recycled materials, BIOLUME CARE is taking practical actions to help lessen waste. It does its utmost to honour its strongly held belief that both beauty and a good quality of life can be achieved through means that do not hurt animals or negatively impact the environment. It is proud to be able to encourage its customers to swim happily in our beautiful oceans without worrying about corals and marine life having to suffer all for the sake of humankind’s beauty whims. BIOLUME CARE serves a diverse array of clients including vegans, vegetarians, flexitarians, and people who love nature and animals. Its fan base are united by the belief that beauty aesthetics and sustainability can co-exist in harmony, without causing harm to the environment. BIOLUME CARE enjoys connecting with its client base through social media, via websites, and face to face at its occasional events. It seeks to create a positive and long-running interaction between the BIOLUME CARE brand and its users. The main thing that differentiates the company from its competitors is also the very thing it stands for, and that is the decision to use plant essential oils as the base for its products. Aside from the formulas being vegan in nature, the BIOLUME CARE product range also embraces a role in catering to religious customers. It also keeps certain flavours and spices in mind as it knows they have an appeal to the Asian market. It also has an eye on appealing to post-medical cosmetic care, as its products are so gentle and skin nourishing they are also suitable for use in this market. The work ethic for staff at BIOLUME CARE is one that champions respect, honesty and a responsible attitude. Everyone who works for the company is admired and respected for their own unique area of expertise, and encouraged to focus on their role, and strive to reach their own potential. This is further extended to encompass respecting and supporting the work of other team members, so everyone can operate at the best of their abilities. BIOLUME CARE has a strong belief in the importance of collaboration, and maintains the opinion that teamwork lies at the heart of problem solving and innovation. The company actively encourages participation and the sharing of ideas. It thinks this not only allows for a smooth flow of information between individuals and teams, but also helps to build trust and reduce misunderstandings. Asking questions, sharing ideas, and solving problems together is very much the BIOLUME CARE way. It is also the best way to move forward, and achieve the company’s mission and goals. Within the beauty and fragrance industry, the technology now exists to manufacture products at a fast-paced, and low-cost rate, using chemical methods. Alternative methods, such as those employed by BIOLUME CARE, require longer, but it’s easy to see why. Using plant essential oils can be impacted by adverse weather, because the natural ingredients need time for cultivation and growth. In this respect, climate change has had a somewhat challenging effect in recent years as it has meant various plants and flowers have been scarce, or even that the quality has gone down. Add to this the fact that the raw materials are rising in price every year, and it is easy to see where the challenges materialise. BIOLUME CARE tries to find ways to address such problems. For instance, it backs friendly planting, using recyclable materials, and employing sustainability within the skincare industry. The company has future plans to emphasize its decision to eschew animal experimentation, through its marketing campaigns. It also wants to promote its energy conservation, carbon reduction, and the packaging pruning it is advocating for. It is also on board with the current trend of pure beauty, which focuses on clean skin care with no carcinogens, no skin irritation, and an adoption of plant-based choices. This seems perfect for the newly crowned Best Plant-Based Cosmetics & Skincare Brand 2023 – APAC. BIOLUME CARE’s desire to bring back a simpler beauty aesthetic sits beautifully alongside its concept of combining vegetarianism and essential oils, and all points to a future full of opportunities for this groundbreaking company.
