Is Valentino Beauty sustainable?
We do not yet score enough Valentino Beauty products to give the brand a sustainability rating. Its stated commitments, per the brand profile we hold: Parent company L'Oréal commits to carbon neutrality by 2025 (Scope 1 & 2), 50% reduction in GHG per unit by 2030, and 100% recycled/biobased PET by 2025; brand offers refillable lipstick and fragrance packaging.
We read sustainability as verifiable practice, not marketing: third-party certification, packaging design, sourcing disclosure and published, dated targets. Claims without evidence score as unverified.

How to check this yourself
Sustainability claims are only as good as the evidence behind them. Before you buy:
- Prefer independent certifications with a public register (B Corp, Fair Trade, FSC, GOTS, USDA Organic) over self-declared badges.
- Check whether the claim covers the whole product or one ingredient, and whether packaging is genuinely recyclable where you live.
- Look for dated, measurable targets and progress reports rather than open-ended pledges.
