About Our Products and How we Choose the Ingredients:
Source: Animal, Vegetable, Synthetic Petrochemical etc ALL supplies are limited to vegetable and renewable source ingredients.
Environmental: What happens to the ingredient after it is disposed of. I source ingredients that are biodegradable and/or do not have an adverse effect on the environment and our water.
Safety: The ingredient should have a proven history of effectiveness and have been found to be SAFE. Much time and effort has been spent on research and weeding out fact from fiction.
Transparent: Chemical nomenclature and as much information as I can with our products and how they should be used. You will not see terms such as "ewax" or "vegetable soap" on our labels. I feel our consumers should know exactly what they are using and how to use it.
We have implemented a GREEN CODE system to inform you just how green each ingredient is.
Usefulness: Making your own cosmetics and body care products is not only functional, it is fun. The formulas supplied are a place to start at. The combinations that can be used are only as limited as ones imagination! Some ingredients such as fragrance (including essential oils) and colors should be tested on individuals with very sensitive skin.
