Our Blacklist

Our ingredient blacklist is the strictest on the market. As soon as an ingredient is suspected of being harmful to the skin or the environment, we remove it from our formulas.

Preservatives & endocrine disruptors

They are suspected of being endocrine disruptors or irritants, with potential effects on health and ecosystems.

Paraben-free, phenoxyethanol-free, MIT (methylisothiazolinone)-free, methylchloroisothiazolinone-free, formaldehyde and formaldehyde releaser-free, triclosan-free, triclocarban-free.

Controversial substances

These compounds are associated with toxicological risks (carcinogenic, reprotoxic, or irritating) or environmental impacts.

Without BHA, BHT, hydroquinone, resorcinol, toluene, styrene, 1,4-dioxane, butoxyethanol, methoxyethanol, methyl cellosolve, acrylamide, polyacrylamide.

Surfactants & ethoxylated compounds

They can be irritating to the skin and potentially contaminated with unwanted residues, while also being poorly biodegradable.

Sulfate-free (SLS, SLES), ethoxylated compound-free, PEG-free, PPG-free, polysorbate-free.

Silicones & polymers

Some are persistent in the environment, accumulate in ecosystems and can create an occlusive effect on the skin.

Without cyclic silicones (cyclomethicone, cyclotetrasiloxane, cyclopentasiloxane, cyclohexasiloxane), without quaternary ammonium compounds (quats: polyquaternium, cetrimonium, behentrimonium, etc.).

Origin & naturalness

Ingredients derived from petrochemicals or animal sources raise environmental and ethical concerns, with few active benefits for the skin.

Free from mineral oils (paraffin, petrolatum), animal oils, animal-derived ingredients, and fats.

Allergens & Fragrance

They are a frequent cause of skin irritation and sensitization, particularly on sensitive skin.

No synthetic fragrance, no allergens (soy, gluten, peanut).

Other ingredients excluded

These ingredients include various substances that are controversial for their potential toxicity, their environmental impact, or their persistent and non-biodegradable nature.

No phthalates, no EDTA and derivatives, no PFAS, no nitromusks or polycyclic musks (synthetic musks), no carbon black, no aluminum salts, no talc, no retinyl palmitate, no coal tar, no acetates.

Furthermore, we have not included controversial filters in our formulas, such as:

Oxybenzone (Benzophenone-3), Octinoxate (Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate), Octisalate, Octocrylene (OCR), Avobenzone, Homosalate, PABA, Titanium Dioxide (TiO₂), nanoparticles.
