Capsule Beauty: What It Is & Why It’s The Sustainable Beauty Solution We Need

Capsule beauty draws on minimalist, essentialist ideals to pare down one’s beauty routine to its most essential steps and products. It seeks to clear out our over-cluttered cosmetics bags and bathroom vanities and stop saturating our skin with more than it needs—and in doing so, reduce the beauty industry’s environmental impact.

About Elate

It started with everyday rituals

With over 20 years of experience in the beauty industry, our founder Melodie envisioned a healthier future for the industry—one unmarred by shame-based marketing and single-use packaging. One that embraced inclusivity and advocated for sustainability. One that recognized the potential for everyday rituals to make a global impact. Elate? Let’s just call it Melodie’s vision in the making, all made possible by a team of fellow beauty-obsessed, sustainability advocates.
