Nenagh skincare business celebrates newly earned sustainability milestone

Skin Formulas, a professional skincare brand proudly based in Tipperary, is celebrating its official certification as a Certified B Corporation™, a milestone that highlights not just the brand’s values but the strength and potential of local Irish enterprise to lead on a global sustainability stage.

B Corp certification is awarded to businesses that meet high standards of verified social and environmental performance, transparency, and ethical accountability. For Skin Formulas, this recognition is a proud affirmation of years of purpose-led work and a strong commitment to responsible business, made even more meaningful by its local roots in the heart of Tipperary. “We’re incredibly proud that this achievement was made here in Tipperary,” said Geraldine Jones, Founder and CEO of Skin Formulas. “It proves that global impact and rural innovation are not mutually exclusive. We’ve always believed in leading with purpose, and now that belief is formally recognised.”

From ethically sourced ingredients and sustainable packaging to a team-first culture and community support, every part of the business was examined during the rigorous B Corp assessment process. For Skin Formulas, it wasn’t about chasing a label, it was about aligning their daily practices with their deepest values.

And this is just the beginning. B Corp certification is not a one-time award, it requires ongoing commitment. Certified businesses are re-evaluated every three years to ensure continuous improvement and accountability. “This is not the end of our journey, it’s the start of a deeper one,” Geraldine added. “We’ll continue to challenge how we operate, innovate responsibly, and stay true to the principles that got us here. And we’re proud to do all of that from our home in Tipperary.”

The brand sees this achievement as a moment of shared pride with the community that has supported it from the start. Skin Formulas has consistently embraced its local identity: employing local talent, supporting regional suppliers, and giving back through sustainability and education initiatives. “This certification belongs to everyone who’s been part of our story: our team, our customers, our neighbours,” said Geraldine “Together, we’ve shown what’s possible when a business stays true to its roots and leads with purpose.”
