According to IDH Transforming Markets, “ …the international vanilla bean market has faced challenges of falling quality, price volatility and insufficient product traceability.” While vanilla can be unsustainably produced and harvested, we make sure our vanilla planifolia fruit extract is sustainably farmed and prioritize the livelihood of farmers. Üazú Skincare ensures our ingredients are traceable and responsibly attained, especially during a time of large demand.
Both vanilla extract and vanilla planifolia fruit extract come from the same orchid: Vanilla planifolia. The yellowish-white flower grows from vines that climb objects surrounding it. The plant is native to South and Central America, but is now a rare find in the wild.

The Future of Vanilla in Skincare
There is a great demand for vanilla in both the culinary and skincare worlds, causing prices to increase and sustainability to decrease. As over-harvesting continues to be a concern, responsible sourcing is key to the future of vanilla. With the growing demand for clean, conscious beauty, more companies are turning to fair-trade and sustainable farming options to ensure vanilla’s long-term availability and growth in the communities that produce it. At Üazú Skincare, we source our vanilla sustainably, ensuring our products protect vanilla’s production, the safety of the producers, and your skin.
