UNIQUE BEAUTY produces hair products using its high-quality locally sourced whey protein and plant extracts, which earns its reputation in Europe.

What's more, all its products have already undergone stringent testing by ECOCERT and obtained certification, allowing consumers to be worry-free.
Sustainable Beauty for Your Hair and Earth
Denmark, besides fairy tales and mermaids, is celebrated for her exceptional dairy products. There, whey, a by-product of cheese, is produced by well-fed free-range cows and therefore, the quality is beyond doubt. It is high in protein and nutritional value. That is why UNIQUE BEAUTY has made use of this by-product, which would have otherwise gone down the drain, to manufacture a vast range of environmentally-friendly and effective hair products including shampoos, conditioners and styling items. UNIQUE BEAUTY uses local raw materials and has set up its own factory utilizing wind power in the country in southern Denmark in order to reduce its carbon footprints. These all have significantly increased the cost of production. Nevertheless, UNIQUE BEAUTY never gives in and becomes one of the very few green companies which have received Best of Cosmoprof Green Prize from COSMOPROF, the leading trade fair around the globe.
It is UNIQUE BEAUTY which enables customers to fill their bathroom with shampoos, conditioners and styling products without a sense of guilt about causing damage to the earth.
Eco-friendly Danish Perfumes—naturally scented, uncommonly seen
Considering the majority of perfumes in the market are artificial and synthetic fragrances, which may have a negative impact on the health in the long run, UNIQUE BEAUTY only uses natural ingredients to create the organic certified perfumes.It employs high-tech fragrance extraction techniques to decompose flowers, leaves, seeds and essential oils into the aromatic compound and created the six perfumes of distinct fragrances. The alcohol is made from organic wheat, and the fixation is made from plant material. These 100% natural elegant perfumes smell uniquely different on various individuals due to differences in body chemistry, temperature, and body odor. The natural fixation soften your skin and give shine and softness to your hair. Experience them and find the own distinctive smell. The six kinds come in 10ml roll-on and 50ml spray.
To Create a Better World Support Fair Trade
Since 2004, UNIQUE BEAUTY has started to purchase shea butter produced in Ghana through SIPPO (Swiss Import Promotion Programme). The collectors and producers of the shea butter are Ghanaian women who are all trained to collect, select, dry, grind, roast and knead the nuts. They then pack the butter in sterile plastic bags and put them in hand weave baskets and finally stitch the top with cloths to seal the basket ensuring the butter is well protected. UNIQUE BEAUTY has always been advocating rewarding the Ghanaian women with fair treatment and wages, thus giving rise to financial independence, higher social status and improved standard of living among those women.
On top of shea butter, UNIQUE BEAUTY sources organically produced aloe vera from Mexican farmers for its hair products. Those farmers are able to make a living planting organic aloe vera as opposed to logging in the rainforest. This can guarantee a stable income for the farmers as well as environmental protection.
10% of the proceeds of all sales (without deducting any costs) of the pop-up store, Brighten Up the World, will go to Fair Trade Hong Kong to promote fair trade locally. To buy sustainable natural products and help labour and farmers in developing countries, visit the pop-up store and get a better understanding of fair trade in the exhibition there.
