ABOUT OUR INGREDIENTS

We are proudly indigenous owned, women owned (WBENC Certified), disabled owned and LGBT+ owned.  Our products are Vegan, Cruelty Free (Leaping Bunny Certified) and Talc Free. We received a lot of media attention for our decision to cancel our Licensed Collection with Alice Cooper over his anti-trans comments in the press. We very much believe in walking the walk not just talking to talk when it comes to making ethical business decisions and being transparent with our customer base.


We strive to be a “beauty disruptor”, renouncing social constructs of beauty and replacing them with individual ones. We don't Sell "Beauty", we believe beauty is in everyone. We merely provide tools for the expression of it. We believe no one should have to choose between unique, inspired packaging and high quality, ethical cosmetics, so we are committed to being all in one. Our officially licensed collections are a huge hit because they made by the fans for the fans. 

We want to encourage our customers to be informed about the ingredients used in the cosmetic products they use. Regulations in the cosmetics industry are very limited and the FDA only investigates the safety of cosmetic products AFTER an adverse effect has been reported. It is important for consumers to be informed about the products they are using. Read the Modernization of Cosmetics Regulation Act of 2022 (MoCRA) for a thorough understanding of the laws and their application.


Safety Substantiation: Companies and individuals who manufacture or market cosmetics have a responsibility to ensure the safety of their products. Neither the law nor FDA regulations require specific tests to demonstrate the safety of individual products or ingredients.


It should be stated that "Natural" products aren't always better for the skin just like many other claims by various cosmetics companies aren't necessarily true. The term "Natural" is not regulated for use in describing cosmetics. Furthermore,  some advocacy groups discourage people from using products that have ingredients that are difficult to pronounce and not easily recognized by the average ​person. That's not necessarily a fair assessment either, considering that the official scientific names of many commonly recognized ingredients aren't as well known, but are usually what's listed.


​We will fully disclose information about the ingredients we use and their safety information.


Unless otherwise noted, all the information about the following ingredients was obtained from A Consumer's Dictionary of Cosmetic Ingredients by Ruth Winter, M.S. Another great resource is The Beauty Bible by Paula Begoun. Her website is also full of great information,


She's made it her mission to investigate and debunk the claims of cosmetics manufacturers.


This is precisely why we openly disclose our ingredients to you, because we feel that transparency is the only way to keep consumers informed and cosmetics companies honest. Even as a smaller brand, we are dedicated to your safety.
