Their products are handmade in small batches for freshness and do not contain synthetic preservatives.
Sustainable
Okana uses a limited number of natural and vegan ingredients in their products, with formulations consisting of less than 10 ingredients. The brand produces all of its products afresh every month in small batches to minimize waste and overstocking and prioritises the use of eco-friendly packaging, with 75% of products packaged in glass jars and the remaining 25% in recyclable plastic. They also utilize cardboard, wood, and wood wool as substitutes for plastic in their packaging materials. Products are sold exclusively through their website to ensure they are produced only on an order basis, and waste is kept to a minimum in terms of product and ingredient inventory.

They use natural and vegan ingredients and avoid unnecessary additives to prioritise the health and well-being of their customers and the wider community.

I really love that this serum has no alcohol and is self-preserving! It feels great on my skin, so smooth and glowy.

Okana’s commitment to transparency with their ingredients (as well as keeping the ingredients list as minimal as possible) is to be commended. I also think it’s fantastic that packaging is top of mind when it comes to sustainability, and that they keep manufacturing to a minimum, only making what is needed or ordered, to help reduce waste and unnecessary excess products.
