our products

As we strive for a combination of the best possible ingredients for each individual product, this year, for example, we have designed a product that consists of 100% natural ingredients: the Triple Tint Lip Balms. The coconut-scented lip balms nourish the delicate skin of the lips with rich superfoods such as sweet potato extract, quinoa seed oil and acai berry oil. A formulation made from natural ingredients is not the best choice for every product, which is why we always rely on a mix of natural and synthetic substances. All products have the following in common:

Vegan.

Our entire range is free from animal ingredients. To ensure the best possible performance, we use a mix of synthetic and natural ingredients.

Cruelty free & PETA certified

We are PETA-approved as a 100% vegan & cruelty-free company. As the welfare of animals is very important to us, we ensure that no living creature has to suffer as a result of our cosmetics throughout the entire manufacturing process of our products.

As the world's largest animal rights organization, PETA stands up for animals in a variety of ways. The campaigns and actions bring about far-reaching changes that significantly improve the quality of life of animals or prevent the death of animals.

A European cosmetics company may only bear the “PETA Approved Vegan Global Animal Test Policy” logo if PETA recognizes the company and its production steps as vegan and animal-free after a thorough examination. For this, a company must submit proof that the company itself and all suppliers and manufacturers do not carry out animal testing and do not initiate such testing. In addition, the “Global Animal Test-Free and Vegan Statement of Assurance” is signed, in which the company assures that it does not use animal ingredients in its products.

Dermatologically tested.

The safe use of our products is our top priority, which is why all products are dermatologically and ophthalmologically tested.

Innovation and sustainability

Our product packaging

For all product packaging, we pay attention to the conscious use of resources and are always on the lookout for innovative and sustainable packaging solutions. With regard to product packaging, we differentiate between primary and secondary packaging. The primary packaging is in direct contact with the product and the product is stored in the secondary packaging.

For each product, we strive for packaging that combines performance and quality while having as little impact on the environment as possible. In April 2022, for example, we launched the Triple Tint Lip Balm, the first product with 100% recyclable packaging. The primary packaging consists of a mono-material that enables the packaging to be fully recycled. Our secondary packaging is also made exclusively from FSC-certified paper. The raw materials for this paper are sourced from certified forestry companies that operate to high ecological and social standards.

Your contribution

Would you like to make a contribution to making the beauty industry more sustainable together with us and thus reduce the impact on the environment? Follow our philosophy that every little step counts and live a sustainable lifestyle at home with some simple but effective Conscious tips! Basically, you can do both the animal world and our environment a favor by looking for a vegan and non-animal tested formulation when buying. Once you have decided on a product based on these and other personal criteria and created numerous looks with it, you can also make a big contribution by disposing of it properly. By separating product packaging by material and disposing of it in a clean way, recyclable materials can be returned to the cycle. We are counting on your support!
