Welcome to a woman-owned, California-crafted skincare brand that puts ethics and effectiveness first. Our name is ACTIVIST because we're not afraid to highlight the very real connection between taking care of yourself and taking care of the world.
How you treat your face speaks volumes about who you are, so skincare should help you not just look good and feel good — but do good. Activist products are about addressing your skin goals with incredible 'activist' ingredients, indulging your senses with gorgeous colors + smells + textures, business practices that prove conscious capitalism is possible, and re-energizing your drive to fight for all that is good in this world. Skincare can be so powerful.
Now more than ever, the world needs everyday activists pushing humanity to reach our fullest potential — wellbeing for all earth dwellers.
But activism is draining. It's imperative to replenish our minds, bodies and spirits from the hard work of changing the world, through intentional self care.
Therein lies the link between skincare and activism: facing yourself in the mirror each morning and night gives you a rare moment to check in with yourself and your priorities.
As Jane Goodall said, “You cannot get through a single day without having an impact on the world around you. What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make.”
We believe that holding a bottle of skincare goodness emblazoned with an activist raising her fist can make an impact — if it inspires you to transform your moment of self-care into fuel for the difference you’ll make each day.
Additionally, you can take pride in knowing your dollars spent with Activist are also making a difference, because a minimum 1% of every purchase goes to actual activism work, and every aspect of our business is built around doing good for people and planet. (
