Richard Morgan, Managing Director Richard Morgan, Managing Director - Boots, MH Alshaya Co said:

"Demonstrating our commitment to the environment, Boots is proud to unveil our latest offering, which is ethically sourced and doesn't compromise on either quality or efficacy."

As awareness of global environmental issues increases, the origin of natural ingredients is of crucial importance to any green beauty buff and Boots applies the same criteria in the development of Amazon Forest, ensuring traceability of the whole sourcing process.

Brazil holds one third of the world's remaining rainforest, and it is a great source of bio-diversity having one of the world's richest floras. "To maintain this, its resources need to be utilised with care and sympathy for the natural environment. We source our oils and butters from companies who work with local people, and with consideration for the area in which they grow. Fair prices are paid to local people who are trained to harvest nuts, seeds and fruits in the most sustainable way. Community projects such as building schools help improve the quality of life of indigenous tribes. In addition, good are mainly transported by the Amazon's extensive river networks instead of roads to protect the natural environment," said Julia Haywood, Boots Natural Ingredient Expert.
