We don't believe that all ingredients are OK to put on your body as your skin soaks in around 65% of what you put on it.
One clinical study shows the average person has over 100 toxins in their bloodstream from cosmetics and detergents.
If you care about the food you eat, it's important to also care about what your skin is soaking up on a daily basis.
Clean Beauty Standards
Alexandra Calvo, our founder, dealt with terrible skin for years until she figured out that reading the back of the label is what she needed to do in order to have the complexion she longed for. Therefore, we adhere to a strict ingredient list. We follow EWG standards.
