LUCERIA Transparency: Our Daily Practices and Core Values

LUCERIA takes pride in being an environmentally responsible company. Our commitment to eco-consciousness is evident in our daily operations and core values, and we believe in the importance of showcasing how our business functions.

By maintaining transparency in our processes and products, we empower you, our valued customer, to feel confident that your purchases contribute to a greater good. When Angel, the founder of LUCERIA, envisioned the potential and mission of LUCERIA, she prioritized the creation and delivery of products through the most sustainable practices possible.

Products 

At LUCERIA, we believe in starting with the fewest ingredients necessary, avoiding any unnecessary additives in our products. Ingredients like dyes serve only aesthetic purposes, and if a product performs effectively without them, we see no reason to include them.

By minimizing the number of ingredients we use, we also decrease our carbon footprint by reducing the need for frequent supply shipments. A simpler product not only benefits the planet but also your wellbeing. As a home fragrance brand, we take comfort in knowing that while our candles burn, you are not inhaling any harmful toxins. Have you ever checked the ingredient lists of candles from big store brands like Bath & Body Works or Target? They often contain over 20 ingredients, some of which can be toxic. In contrast, our candles are made with just three non-toxic ingredients.

Packaging 

Our packaging is a true reflection of our commitment to being an eco-conscious brand. We use reusable ceramic vessels, eco friendly dust covers, and infinitely recyclable glass jars to encourage you to repurpose your containers instead of discarding them once empty.

When it comes to shipping materials, we take great care to minimize plastic usage. Bubble wrap, styrofoam, and other environmentally harmful materials are only used when we repurpose them from shipments we’ve received. Otherwise, our shipping supplies consist of paper, cardboard, biodegradable packing peanuts, and water-soluble paper, all aimed at reducing waste and supporting sustainability.

Values

Commitment to eco-friendliness is our top priority, and while we acknowledge that we’re not perfect, we strive for continuous improvement every day. We regularly assess our products and practices to find opportunities to enhance our sustainability efforts.

If you’ve been with us for a year, you might recall our candle sampler sets. We made the decision to eliminate those because the packaging did not reflect our environmental values.

You may notice that some of our wax melts are still packaged in plastic. The good news is that this plastic is recyclable under code 3 and can be accepted by most curbside recycling services.

While we strive for perfection, we understand that growth comes from awareness and education. Together, by sharing knowledge and taking small steps, we can work toward a cleaner, greener future. Thank you for being part of the LUCERIA family and for contributing to making both our planet and your home a better place.
