2020 marks the 50th anniversary of Earth Day and the first-ever Digital Earth Day! Now more than ever, we are aware of the everyday impact we have on the environment around us. Amidst a global pandemic, movement has slowed and the air has cleared, but there is still a great deal of work to be done. Aware that we are all dependent on the same earth for survival, this simple truth has shaped the way in which KEVIN.MURPHY has developed its brand from the beginning.
“I have always been passionate about environmental issues, but it wasn’t until I created my first line of products that I really became aware of just how much harm the production processes of any product can have upon the environment.” – Kevin Murphy

The Choices We Make
The Ingredients
Creating products with a conscious; what goes into the bottles is just as important as what the packaging is made from. From the very beginning, KEVIN.MURPHY has developed products with natural ingredients that are paraben, sulphate, and cruelty-free. With special attention to where ingredients come from, KEVIN.MURPHY selects sources that are renewable and harvested in a way that doesn’t harm the environment.
Partnerships with Purpose
Apart from The Choices We Make, KEVIN.MURPHY is also proud to partner with Green Circle Salons and ECOHEADS to promote resources for salons and stylists to give back to the environment.
Green Circle Salons is a salon program that provides sustainable waste management solutions. From recycling foils and hair clippings to innovating reuse ideas, this initiative cuts down on unnecessary daily salon waste, moving toward a greener future.
ECOHEADS is an innovative device that instantly cuts down on water consumption without sacrificing water pressure or effectiveness. As one of our most precious resources, water consumption is a pressing topic that needs to be addressed. ECOHEADS saves up to 98 gallons of water in a single basin and uses up to 65% less water than regular showerheads.
