Ingredient Directory
Every ingredient, explained.
We believe you have the right to know exactly what goes on your skin, and why. This is every ingredient in our formulas, sourced and chosen intentionally.
Every ingredient in our formulas is chosen with care, and nothing is here to bulk out a bottle. Our oils and butters are cold-pressed or unrefined, and many are certified organic. Each one is here for a reason, and each reason is on this page.
