Pachamama is a one-stop shop for personal care products that are plastic-free and cutting-edge.
Cutting-Edge
At Pachamama, we only choose products that make use of cutting-edge new technology or old time wisdom to effectively target personal care needs while being environmentally safe. It’s time to pivot the health and beauty marketplace towards real solutions, rather than expensive, superficial iterations that confuse consumers.
Plastic-Free
All products in our shop are 99% plastic-free and our business itself strives to be as zerowaste as possible.
Humans use a lot of plastic but the production and disposal of too much plastic is damaging to human health, wildlife, and the environment.
Production
Pre-production plastic pellets, nurdles, used to form the plastic products are small, light, and easily split as they transport from factory to factory across the planet at every stage of the manufacturing process and into the environment. They are the second largest source of microplastic pollution.
Disposal
Right now, not only is there hardly any sustainable way to dispose of plastic—most plastic waste in Taiwan either ends up in the environment or is incinerated, which physically pollutes the environment or releases highly toxic chemicals, like dioxin and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB). All ways in which eventually enters into our bodies.
What about recycling plastic?
Recycling is a half-solution at best. In reality, 90% of plastic does not get recycled, and the rest that is recycled eventually still ends up as waste as plastic can only be recycled a limited number of times.
Goddess of Earth
In indigenous South American cultures, Pachamama is the goddess of fertility. Also synonymous with “Earth Mother” or “Mother Nature”. Her feminine power births, fertilizes, nurtures, and grows all life on Earth.
By providing feminine health and beauty products that need no compromises, we hope to protect, empower, and celebrate women and the feminine spirit of all people and of our planet.
