Our Starter Packs Do Not Contain:

Sodium Lauryl Sulphate (SLS):
A foaming agent that may strip the skin of natural oils, causing dryness and irritation—especially in sensitive skin.

Parabens:
Commonly used as preservatives in commercial soaps, parabens have been linked to hormone disruption and may contribute to reproductive toxicity.

Phthalates:
Found in synthetic fragrances, phthalates are potential endocrine disruptors and have been associated with developmental and reproductive harm.

Synthetic Fragrances and Dyes:
These may trigger allergic reactions, eczema, and skin sensitivity. Unlike essential oils or natural colorants, their chemical composition is often undisclosed.

Triclosan:
An antibacterial agent banned in many regions for its role in antibiotic resistance and potential to disrupt thyroid function.

Formaldehyde-releasing preservatives (e.g., DMDM Hydantoin):
Used in commercial skincare products to prolong shelf life, these may release formaldehyde over time, irritating the skin, eyes, and lungs.

Tetrasodium EDTA:
A chelating agent that helps stabilise soap formulations but may irritate sensitive skin and is not environmentally friendly.

Petroleum-based ingredients:
These ingredients (like mineral oil or paraffin) may clog pores and are not biodegradable, contributing to environmental pollution.
