Ethical Commitment: Environment, Climate & Animal Protection

At a time when the beauty industry faces increasing scrutiny for its environmental impact, ethical responsibility is no longer optional—it is essential. At Dr. Baumann and SkinIdent, our mission extends far beyond creating effective skincare.

We believe that true skin health can only be achieved when our products respect not only the skin, but also the world we live in. Our commitment to environmental sustainability, climate-conscious practices, and animal protection is built into every stage of our product development, manufacturing, and brand philosophy.

This article explores the principles that guide our approach and explains why ethical responsibility stands at the heart of everything we do.

Respect for the Environment

Every choice we make begins with the understanding that the environment is not a limitless resource. As a skincare company rooted in science, we are acutely aware of how environmental health directly affects human skin health. Pollution, water quality, biodiversity, and resource depletion all impact the well-being of people and the planet. Because of this, our formulations and production processes are designed to minimize environmental harm wherever possible.

We prioritize biodegradable ingredients, avoid environmentally persistent chemicals, and select raw materials with responsible sourcing in mind. Unlike many conventional skincare products, ours contain no mineral oils, silicones, or microplastics—ingredients known for contributing to pollution and long-term ecological disruption. By eliminating these materials from our formulations, we reduce the burden placed on water systems, soil, and aquatic environments.

Packaging decisions also reflect our ecological responsibility. We keep packaging minimal, avoid unnecessary outer boxes, and use materials designed for recyclability whenever possible. Our goal is to reduce waste without compromising the integrity, stability, or safety of the product. This philosophy ensures that every step—from formulation to consumer use—maintains alignment with environmental protection.

Climate-Conscious Production

Climate protection is another essential pillar of our ethical approach. The effects of climate change—rising temperatures, shifting ecosystems, and increased environmental stress—are issues that directly influence both the planet and the future of skincare. As such, we hold ourselves accountable for minimizing our climate footprint.

Our manufacturing processes prioritize energy efficiency and responsible resource management. We actively optimize production steps, and support climate-aware operational practices. This includes mindful sourcing of raw materials, reduction of production waste, and transportation methods that decrease overall emissions where possible.

In addition, because our formulations avoid harsh chemicals and unnecessary synthetic additives, we reduce the environmental impact associated with producing and disposing of these substances. The result is a cleaner production cycle with lower ecological strain and better long-term sustainability.

We believe that climate protection is not just a responsibility—it is an investment in the future of both our planet and the skincare solutions we create.

Commitment to Animal Protection

One of the strongest ethical foundations of Dr. Baumann and SkinIdent is our stance on animal protection. We firmly reject all forms of animal testing and ensure that every product aligns with cruelty-free standards. This commitment is rooted not only in ethics but in science: safe, skin-compatible ingredients do not require animal testing when chosen responsibly.

Additionally, our formulations avoid ingredients that originate from dead animals. Instead, we use alternatives that are biologically compatible with human skin and ethically sourced. This approach respects the inherent value of animal life while focusing on ingredients proven to be beneficial, safe, and effective.

We extend this philosophy to broader ecological animal protection as well. By prioritizing sustainable sourcing practices and environmentally friendly ingredients, we help protect natural ecosystems—the habitats all animals rely on for survival. Our ethical choices today contribute to safer, healthier environments for generations to come.

Why Our Ethical Standards Matter

Consumers today are more informed, more conscious, and more intentional about the products they choose. Ethical skincare is not simply a trend—it is a necessity shaped by global awareness and personal responsibility. When customers choose Dr. Baumann SkinIdent, they are choosing products that reflect their values: sustainability, safety, compassion, and integrity.

Our commitment to environmental protection, climate-conscious production, and animal welfare ensures that our skincare aligns with the highest ethical standards. Yet it also ensures something more: that our products support long-term skin health in a way that is truly holistic. Healthy skin cannot be separated from a healthy planet.

Every product we create represents the harmony of science, responsibility, and respect—values we believe will shape the future of skincare for the better.
