Quiet Dose

Subscription model with 45-day delivery cycles is inherently circular-friendly — predictable refills reduce the risk of over-purchasing and waste. 30-day satisfaction guarantee with full refund reduces product abandonment. However, no refill program is offered, no take-back scheme exists, packaging materials are not described, and there is only one product format with no reusable or returnable packaging option.

EU-based brand with regional shipping within Europe, which keeps transport emissions relatively low. Free shipping reduces unnecessary deliveries. However, no carbon footprint data is published, no SBTi targets exist, and no carbon offset or renewable energy claims are made. As a very small brand with a single product, absolute emissions are likely low, but there is no verifiable climate data available.

Strong formulation ethics: 14 ingredients only, all disclosed with exact concentrations. No fragrance, no essential oils, no denatured alcohol, no SLS/SLES, no parabens, no sulfates. EU-registered (CPNP) and dermatologically tested. Phenoxyethanol is used as preservative at 0.1-1%, industry standard with low irritation risk. No microplastics disclosed. Full INCI declaration is publicly available on the website. The main gap is lack of information about manufacturing waste and wastewater management.
