Our ingredients
WE WANT TO BE AS HONEST WITH YOU AS POSSIBLE.
Here you will find a list of all the ingredients we use in our products. Behind each name there is a short fact sheet that explains where the raw material comes from and what effect it has on your skin. We also show you honestly where we see potential for improvement. You will see a note about this in the description of the raw materials in question.
WHERE DO OUR RAW MATERIALS COME FROM?
We take various aspects into account when making our selection. One of these is that we try to source every raw material locally wherever possible. Unfortunately, this is not possible in some cases, so we also source from countries outside Europe. Due to the variety of ingredients you find in our products and the quantities we need, we also have to ensure that the raw materials are available in sufficient quantities to ensure a resilient value chain. This may mean that in exceptional cases, such as crop failures, we have to resort to other countries of origin at short notice.
We love animals and will therefore never test products on them.
As pure as possible, so nice for allergy sufferers.
The tiny particles cannot be small enough – in fact, they cannot even be there.
They don't bring anything, they don't achieve anything, we don't need them.
We completely avoid artificial preservatives.
Industrial plastics leave us nothing, not even care.
