What countries are the highest consumers of skin bleaching products, I personally know they are huge in the Philippines - and obviously huge other places, but PH is the only place I have personal experience with seeing people (an ex) buy a lot of this stuff.

Also, what are the water-table issues with these (both the bad ones and the ones youre working on?

Sunscreen is VERY bad for fish... and we should be putting less chemicals in the world....

So, can you attest to the Marine Safety of your products, or will they "turn the frogs gay" so to speak.

Finally - I think it would be great it you can find a sustainable bamboo container (an actual cylinder of bamboo, not the laminated strips. (I know an environmental lawyer in the PH who represents the bamboo industry, at least she did - Ill have to ask...)

But it would be sad if you are selling $3,000,000 worth of disposable plastic bullshit.

Maybe instead you can work on a refill option with Sephora, or at least a reclaimation of program (if you know anything about women who buy stuff from ULTA... they love their ULTA points... Not sure about Sephora points -- but get a reclaimation program for points going...

Good job though, the world needs this. AND if you can help reduce pollution in SEA countries, that would be a boon... the lack of environmental responsibility in SEA is utterly attrocious, and like I said $3,000,000 worth of garbage containers when you sell is no bueno - regardless of your skin product.

Edit:

Sephora's largest international suppliers (by shipment count, where 'shipment' is manifest of anything across a (sea/land) based shipment through customs...
