Wingsets Eco-Friendly and Cruelty Free Practices

Our goal is for Wingsets to positively impact the world by helping you be healthier. Naturally.

Wingsets Eco-Friendly Practices, We like green!

“The ‘control of nature’ is a phrase conceived in arrogance, born of the Neanderthal age of biology and the convenience of man.” -Rachel Carson

We care about the environment. As important as a healthy body is, a healthy planet is a must for the sake of humankind.

Wingsets, as a company, reflects the concerns and vigilance we each have individually about our impact on our environment. In our 14 years of business we have not had to reorder shipping peanuts because we save and recycle all those we receive in shipments. Your order may arrive in a box that looks a little battered, because when they are safely usable we recycle those as well. You will notice that we use HDPE (recycle #2) bottles for most of our products.This plastic is one of the 3 plastics considered to be safe, We struggled over whether to use glass for all of our products, and we did for awhile, but the additional shipping weight added to the cost of the order we send you, added to the shipping charges when the heavier glass is shipped to us definitely enlarges the carbon footprint (sorry, really tired of that term, but couldn't think of anything else). There is also the added risk of damage in shipment and for these reasons glass is not the best choice for all products. However, we DO use  amber glass for our pure essential oils, our Spicey Muscle Oil and some of our facial products, as these products will degrade if placed in plastic bottles. Glass is the only option for undiluted essential oils. Our air fresheners are housed in aluminum bottles that protect the beneficial properties of the ingredient and are "infinitely recycle" - read more.

We continue to research product packaging options in order to be proactive in our choices, and have been sampling newer items as they are developed.We have recently sourced a glass company that makes only glass products and a wide variety at that. So we will revisit this option again. Let us know what you think - we would love that feedback.

Please be sure to recycle and reuse our packaging to reduce your carbon footprint on our planet. We repeat this logo on the bottom of each of our product pages to reiterate the importance of recycling.

Cruelty Free Ingredients:

Animals are of particular interest and concern to both Warren and myself. We have two awesome Brittany's that are our family. I know it sounds silly, but I even get concerned about earth worms and other insects. I am an advocate of butterfly and pollinator practices, which we do and have done in our own yard for years. We understand that people like us, consumers of natural products and those who understand and appreciate the importance of organic skincare also care about the environment as well as what they put on and in their bodies. Wingsets, of course, has never tested on animals, but we have to also be very diligent about making sure that the ingredients we source are also "cruelty free". Some of our suppliers are certified by CCIC and the Leaping Bunny organization, but all have been approved as being cruelty free. Thankfully, this is not as big a problem for small suppliers such as ourselves but the problems still exist with large corporate entities that continue to test on animals. We are part of the movement that is being pro-active in eliminating these practices. Considering that animal testing is now banned almost everywhere for cosmetics and their ingredients, some ingredients used in cosmetics are also used in other types of products, and for this reason we do check all of our sources.
