Company Assessment

PRAISE CRITICISM INFORMATION
Napoleon Perdis Cosmetics Pty Ltd
Social Mica mining
This company uses mica in its mineral cosmetics, and has no information on its website on its mica sourcing policy. Much of the world's mica comes from Jharkhand and Bihar in India, where child labour has been found in the supply chain. After months of emails from Fairfax, the company would not disclose where the mica used in its products was sourced from or who the suppliers were.
