We are committed to only using natural materials to ensure that carcinogens, endocrine disruptors and other toxins are not used in the production of the goods we carry. You won't ever find polyester, nylon, or polyamide in our offerings. We limit the use of spandex to less than 10% of the final product.

Many natural fibers still undergo harmful farming practices like the use of pesticides, herbicides and insecticides. We work with our vendors to confirm these harmful chemicals are not used in the manufacturing process.

Toxic dyes, often derived from coal tar or petrochemicals, have been linked to skin irritation, allergies, and dermatitis, causing harm to individuals with sensitive skin and undermining overall skin health. Additionally, the release of toxic by-products during manufacturing contributes to environmental pollution, reinforcing our commitment to exclude them for the well-being of our customers and the planet.

Some studies have suggested that when SLS is used in conjunction with certain other chemicals, it may undergo reactions that result in the formation of nitrosamines, which are compounds known to have carcinogenic properties. Due to concerns about potential chemical interactions and to prioritize customer safety, we have chosen not to include sodium laurel sulfate in our products, opting for alternative ingredients that align with our commitment to providing safe and health-conscious options for our customers.

Parabens have been associated with endocrine disruption, as they may mimic hormones in the body and interfere with the endocrine system, raising concerns about their potential impact on hormonal balance and reproductive health. Some studies have also suggested a possible link between parabens and an increased risk of breast cancer, contributing to our decision to exclude them from our store in order to prioritize the health and well-being of our customers.

Synthetic fragrances and perfumes often contain a mix of chemicals, some of which can trigger allergic reactions, skin irritation, and respiratory issues, leading us to avoid them to protect our customers from potential harm. The lack of transparency in disclosing the specific components of synthetic fragrances hinders informed consumer choices, reinforcing our commitment to transparency and the exclusion of potentially harmful ingredients.

Formaldehyde is a known respiratory irritant that can cause coughing, wheezing, and throat irritation, making it harmful to individuals with respiratory conditions and underscoring its exclusion from our products to prioritize respiratory health. Long-term exposure to formaldehyde has been associated with an increased risk of certain cancers, emphasizing the importance of its exclusion to minimize potential carcinogenic effects.

Petroleum based products contribute to environmental degradation through extraction and processing, aligning with our commitment to sustainability by refusing to include items that harm the environment. Some individuals may also experience skin sensitivities and allergies to petroleum-derived ingredients, reinforcing our dedication to offering products that are gentle and safe for all skin types.

Commonly used as plasticizers, phthalates have been linked to hormone disruption, affecting the endocrine system and potentially leading to reproductive and developmental issues, underlining their exclusion from our products to safeguard hormonal health. Prenatal exposure to phthalates has been associated with developmental risks in children, further supporting our decision to exclude them from our store to protect the health and well-being of our customers.
