FORMULATION FACT 01

Formulated without heavily ethoxylated ingredients Polysorbate 20, PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Sorbeth-30 tetraoleate and Poloxamer 184 that carry particular risk for carcinogenic contaminants, ethylene oxide and 1,4-dioxane. We take ingredient purity seriously.

FORMULATION FACT 02

Understanding that "natural" isn't always synonymous with "safe," we undertake a comprehensive evaluation of every naturally-derived oil and extract integrated into our formulas. Our process includes paying precise attention to the total product presence of potential irritants, sensitizers, and photoactive compounds. This diligent assessment is crucial to ensure that our products not only harness the inherent benefits of nature but also maintain our rigorous standards of safety and skin compatibility for our users.

FORMULATION FACT 03

Our dedication to clean means we will omit certain natural fragrances. This includes Eugenia Caryophyllus (Clove) Leaf Oil, which contains high levels of the skin irritant eugenol, and Commiphora Myrrha (Myrrh) Oil, associated with potential reproductive effects.

      A real skin saver in winter. Removes makeup, cleanses, and I love using it for an overnight moisturizing mask. As wonderful as it always was.

      Lotus glow cleaning balm

      My go to product that has multiple uses. I was so happy to see this product hasn’t changed. Great to bring for trips since it can take the place of many other products.

      Face massage

      I use a ton of Counter products, but I just ordered this recently and absolutely love it. It’s great to take off all your make up but then I spend about five or 10 minutes doing face massage and it’s an awesome retreat for five minutes lol
