Anti-aging skincare brand Wrinkles Schminkles is partnering with TerraCycle to launch a new silicone patch recycling program.
Wrinkles Schminkles is the pioneer of the reusable Wrinkle Patch, which is 100% biodegradable.
The company sells overnight treatment products that reduce the appearance of fine lines. Products are 100% medical grade silicone patches made for the chest, neck, mouth, eyes, foreheand and hands. Patches are resuable up to 20 times when stored in a provided reusable pouch.
Founder Gabrielle Requena commented, “Since going viral on TikTok and significantly growing, at the very top of our brand’s to-do list has been finding a way to recycle a historically classed ‘non-recyclable’ category recyclable. Even my manufacturer insisted it wasn’t possible. I’m a big believer that aesthetics and ethics can go hand in hand."
"By pioneering the first silicone patch recycling program through TerraCycle, we are proud to offer our customers this simple and free option to ensure we keep our products and packaging out of landfills and contribute to our planet and people, like any future-focused brand.”
Wrinkles Schminkles’ fully funded system with TerraCycle allows customers to recycle their skin care patches. The patches will be recycled into plastic lumber, plastic container planter pot, drainage piping and other such items.
TerraCycle is a global leader in recycling hard-to-recycle materials and is an innovative recycling primarily volunteer-based platform working towards a waste free environment.
Last year TerraCycle collaborated Saks in a beauty recycling program.
