Transparency of Ingredients

  • Ingredients

    All of the brands we partner with are hand-picked and heavily investigated to ensure they meet our clean ingredient requirements. Clean can mean different things to different people, but for us, we’re looking for ingredients that are ethically sourced, free of any synthetic fragrances and free from hormone-disrupting chemicals. We also need our products to be potent, so they all really pack a punch in terms of results.

We only work with brands that are transparent with their ingredients. A good rule of thumb is the first ingredient on the label is the most potent - so we ensure that the first three or four are really good ones!
