• VEGAN & CRUELTY FREE

    We are proudly cruelty-free with no animal testing, and our ingredients are 100% vegan, aside from our sunscreens, which contain responsibly sourced organic beeswax.

Our Ingredients Standards

  • HIGH-PERFORMANCE ACTIVES

    We use green chemistry and high-quality, lab-purified active ingredients to make our formulas effective. You'll find antioxidants like vitamin C and niacinamide, plant extracts like licorice root and bisabolol (chamomile), and minerals like MSM and zinc.

  • NO ENDOCRINE DISRUPTORS

    We don't use ingredients that are contaminated with chemicals that may disrupt your hormones, including phthalates, parabens, and dioxins. We properly protect you and our products with preservatives that are proven to be safe and effective.

    We consciously choose high-quality suppliers and ethical growers. Our organic floral waters are sourced from small regenerative growers in the Pacific Northwest, and our cold pressed botanical oils are produced without hexane.

Frequently asked questions about our ingredients

Do your products contain essential oils?

Essential oils help add joy to skincare. But they can also cause sensitivity if they're used above certain concentration levels or left on the skin for too much time.

That's why we use them at a safe amount and only use them in two of our cleansers. They're only on your skin for a minute or so, and they make washing your face so much more enjoyable before you rinse them off.

We have an EO-free cleanser option, too: Deep Moisture Cleansing Balm.

Do you use preservatives?

Yes. Where needed, we do use antimicrobial preservatives. (Products that don't come into contact with water, like our face oil, don't need antimicrobial preservatives.)

We use eco-safe preservatives that are rated 1 by the Environmental Working Group for safety to our bodies and environment.
