Sustainability in beauty is complex, multi-faceted and ever-evolving. As sustainability experts, we cut out the guesswork and help you anticipate trends so you can focus on creating innovative solutions that benefit people and don’t harm the planet.

We help beauty professionals innovate, make sense of sustainability, avoid greenwashing, and outperform their competitors.

We help Beauty Professionals master sustainability through relevant innovations for the market and consumers and transform their product portfolio into better options for the planet.

You feel lost about sustainability. It's all confusing. We help you make sense of the non-sense, so you can make an impact.

This platform offers NEWS and INSIGHTS to help beauty brands develop their sustainable product journey.

Eva works with a team of experts in their respective fields (formulators, packaging engineers, trends specialists, and more) to build the tailored content of re/sources.

We also believe that sustainability should be a cross-department matter and that teams from Marketing to R&D and CSR need to be on the same page in terms of regulations, technology and innovative solutions.

Message from our founder

Eva Lagarde (our founder),Agnès (her mother),and Chantal (her twin sister)

I grew up in the countryside of France. In the South West, in the Dordogne more precisely. My grandparents were dairy farmers and I spent all my summers with them as a child. We were doing all sorts of farming activities including - but not restricted to - milking the cows, feeding the flock, hiding in the corn fields or napping in the hay bales. It was a glorious childhood that brought me close to the meaning of “care for the planet'“ and “hard work”.

My mum, the eldest of 7 children, almost brought us up alone (me and 3 siblings). She’s hard-working, passionate and loving and taught me the values of LOVE and CARE. If it wasn't for her, who knows where I’d be today.

I have learnt from a young age, from my grandparents and my mum, that with passion, creativity and perseverance, you can achieve pretty much anything in life!

All of this is to tell you that I’m sharing this platform to bring meaning back to our lives and our work, and to connect us with the best of the best in their fields.

I’m always about innovation. Scouting the latest trends and products over the world with sustainability in mind.

I’ve been working in the beauty industry for over 15 years. It started with Cosmoprof (the leading B2B beauty event), and continued with MakeUp in shows and then Premium Beauty News (leading B2B publication) where I was in charge of business development, marketing and events.

I’ve hosted, in the last four years, annual events about innovation in beauty packaging, make-up, skin-care and fragrance in Paris.

Now I want to make my network and knowledge available to more people, not just French prestige brands, but all Beauty Brands looking to build a more sustainable future.

This platform is called RE.SOURCES as a meaning to go back to the source of everything, giving back to the earth what she gave us, a sort of “retour aux sources” (in french).

Will you join me on this journey?

Let’s leave a great legacy in this world!
