More is Less.
Green Vine has been established for 13 years, and we have always believed that there are always better choices in life.
Sustainable, pure, scientific — inspired by Dr. Lin Bixia, Green Vine believes in 'more':
More knowledge, more transparency, more consistency, more and better choices.
Because, by embracing these 'mores,' we can have less:
Less waste, less impulsiveness, less unnecessary, less uncertainty.
We are not walking alone, just with a different philosophy.
Skincare, no need for lotion.
Shampooing doesn't necessarily require conditioner.
Sunscreen is just the third choice for sun protection.
More, that is less. When you understand more, you can make better choices for your skin and the environment.
Greenvinves has continuously developed product packaging and formulations with lower environmental impact. For example, all the bottles from Greenvines are composed of Post-Consumer Recycled material. It helps to reduce over 4,200 kilograms of plastic waste, also 12,675.6 kilograms of carbon emission.
Greenvines not only committed to advancing our 'net-zero carbon emissions' goal to 2025 but also responding to the global reflection and action on the environment accelerated by the pandemic. The concepts of 'common good' and 'sustainability' have become trends in the international beauty and skincare industry.
Regarding animal testing, Green Vine has never conducted such experiments in the past or present, and there are no plans to do so in the future. Additionally, we are committed to staying informed about trends in animal testing for cosmetic ingredients.
We strive to maintain strict control over our ingredients, harnessing the power of plants to replace chemicals, and eliminating unnecessary components whenever possible.
Evolution of Action: Expanding Consumer Advocacy and Environmental Organization Support through 1% for the Planet

Annually, 1% of the sales revenue is designated as an "Earth Tax" to support non-profit environmental organizations, as a tangible commitment to Green Vine's mission.
