Parabens can mimic estrogen in the body, disrupting natural hormone rhythms. They've been detected in human tissue and are widely linked to endocrine imbalance.

These antibacterial agents contribute to hormone disruption and antibiotic resistance. We use gentler, safer alternatives.

Often hidden under the term “fragrance,” phthalates are linked to fertility challenges, thyroid disruption, and developmental concerns.

Filters like oxybenzone and octinoxate can behave like hormone disruptors and are harmful to marine ecosystems.

Harsh lathering agents that strip moisture, disrupt the skin barrier, and trigger irritation — especially for sensitive skin.

“Fragrance” can legally hide dozens of chemicals — including allergens and phthalates. We prefer transparent scent profiles or fragrance-free formulas.

Preservatives like DMDM hydantoin release formaldehyde over time. They can be sensitizing and are unnecessary with modern systems.

Safe in low concentrations (<1%)but known to cause irritation for sensitive skin. Our waterless formats allow us to avoid it entirely.

Synthetic antioxidants linked to hormone disruption and sensitization. We prefer natural, stable antioxidant systems.

Silicones can trap debris, clog pores, and interfere with natural skin renewal — especially in humid travel conditions.

Polyethylene beads and nylon powders harm marine environments and aren’t necessary for texture or exfoliation.

Lower-grade petrolatum may contain impurities and doesn’t align with our clean and conscious approach.

These synthetic dyes may irritate sensitive skin and offer no functional benefit.

We avoid all potential contaminants such as lead, mercury, and cadmium — and we test to ensure our formulas stay pure.
