Who is the founder of Costa Brazil?

Costa Brazil is a sustainable beauty line created by Francisco Costa and built on the simple belief that the spirit of beauty is inseparable from the health of the earth. 

The importance of protecting the environment is deeply ingrained in Costa, who was born and raised in Brazil. Throughout his expansive career in fashion, he continually proved that beautiful design can be created in a smart, sustainable way. 

In 2016, he returned to his homeland to explore the natural wonders of the Amazon rainforest. There, he discovered local healing rituals and the untapped wealth of curative native ingredients, and saw first-hand the urgent need for conservation. The result is Costa Brazil, which combines the raw power of the natural world with Costa’s unparalleled eye for beauty in a concerted effort to nourish the body, as well as the earth.

What is your brand philosophy?

We create nourishing rituals designed to reconnect you with nature’s harmonious rhythms. 

We believe that beauty must always be in balance with the earth. 

Our mission is to create a clean, sustainable, luxurious, high-performance range of lifestyle products that are plant-based and feature USDA certified, cosmos and ecocert ingredients. 

We are sustainably sourced, environmentally responsible, vegan, dermatologist tested and cruelty free. Learn more about us here.

What is Costa Brazil doing to protect the environment?

Conscious sustainability is the foundation upon which Costa Brazil was built. We create clean, sustainable products that encourage and assist people to become more proactive in the fight against climate change.

We are always striving to improve our carbon footprint when it comes to product formulation, packaging and shipping practices. Costa Brazil works in partnership with local farmers as well as international suppliers to ensure that our ingredients are sustainably sourced. Our products are cruelty-free, and we use recycled and recyclable materials whenever possible. 

Our primary and secondary packaging can be recycled, and we have partnered with a warehouse that joins us in our sustainability efforts and uses eco-friendly mailers and packaging materials. A portion of proceeds will go to the non-profit environmental organization Conservation International.

What kind of partnership with the Conservation International do you have?

Costa Brazil is a committed partner to Conservation International, working closely with the organization to follow best production practices. Conservation International helps us to identify and utilize existing farm lands and offer empowering alternative opportunities to comunidades ribeirinhas (river-side agricultural communities) previously burdened with growing conflict crops. It isn’t enough to simply benefit from the earth’s nourishing natural ingredients. Costa Brazil has a deep responsibility to positively impact the environment and strives to employ sustainable strategies in all aspects, where possible from procurement to production to packaging.

You helped us raise $70,000+ for Amazon Forever

Thanks to your support, 100% of the profits from the Costa Brazil X Pangaia collaboration were donated to Amazon Forever, a campaign led by Conservation International and Brazil Foundation that supports indigenous communities in the Amazon Rainforest affected by COVID-19. In addition, we donated profits from our September Body Cream sales and the Costa Brazil community made direct contributions to Amazon Forever.

In February 2020, we introduced our Creative Coalition, inviting our favorite artists to create work, accompanied by donations to Conservation International from Costa Brazil. Our first #givelove campaign with photographer David Croland will help protect 80 acres, or roughly 20,000 trees, in places where Conservation International works.

Do you plan to partner with anyone else?

Yes! We’ve worked with Beauty United, Pangaia and started our own Creative Coalition.

With your support, we were able to donate 2,000 Body Creams to COVID-19 patients and health care professionals in NYC with help from Beauty United.
