"Haircare is the fastest growing category in beauty, and Jonathan's beauty and haircare expertise, combined with his passion for inclusivity and sustainability, makes him an ideal partner for a premier clean beauty brand like JVN," said John Melo, President and Chief Executive Officer of Amyris. "We believe everyone should have access to effective, clean and sustainable hair care products.

The retail launch orders for JVN hair exceed the first full year of Biossance's revenue indicating amazing interest for what has the potential to be the leading clean hair care brand."

Sustainability is at the core of the brand's approach to clean ingredients, formulations, and packaging, prioritizing recyclable materials like aluminum and glass and a commitment to become 100% plastic-free by 2025. Each formula contains ingredients selected on the basis of positive impact on hair and skin health and low impact on the environment, specifically aquatic ecosystems.
