JUST 2% ADDITIONAL INGREDIENTS FOR SAFETY & STABILITY

BEHIND THE 2%

OAT FRAGRANCE
Part of the 2% is also the scent. This one has comforting and mellow aspects combined with fresh and delightful notes. The mild heart notes is composed of white flowers and is refined by a delicious milky accord. The pampering end note brings softness and sensuality with powdery notes.

AVOCADO FRAGRANCE
Part of the 2% is also the scent. This one offers a creaminess and light freshness before it unfolds in a transparent heart around a soft green accord embraced by powdery notes and delicate florals. The dry down transports cocooning and indulging aspects.

HYDROXYPROPYL STARCH PHOSPHATE
Hydroxypropyl Starch Phosphate is a modified corn starch based polymer which is usually used for thickening and stabilizing emulsions like creams or lotions especially in the presence of minerals or salts. Hydroxypropyl Starch Phosphate provides stable cremes and lotions with a light & smooth skin feel.

ALCOHOL DENAT.
The ethanol - also called ethyl alcohol - used in our formulations is a plant-based ingredient. For decades it is a common ingredient used in many cosmetics and beauty products. It acts as solvent in lotions and creams, ensuring that lotion do not separate. The index "Denat." stands for denatured alcohol. This ethanol contains a denaturant to make it taste bad. Why: Alcohol is also found in alcoholic beverages such as wine or beer; in many countries alcoholic beverages are heavily taxed. In order to avoid paying beverage taxes on alcohol that is not meant to be consumed (i.e. for use in cosmetic and personal care products), the alcohol must be denatured.

50% LESS PLASTIC
WE REDUCED THE BOTTLE’S PLASTIC USE BY HALF***
We knew that being sustainable meant doing things differently from the ground up. So we put everything under the microscope before deciding on the new bottle we have today.

5 GREAT THINGS FOR THE ENVIRONMENT

31 ELEPHANTS WORTH OF PLASTIC SAVED PER YEAR
Literally 112 tons of plastic saved on a global level, based on current volume estimations.
*based on the average weight (3.6ton) of a female African elephant

CARBON FOOTPRINT REDUCED BY HALF
That’s 50% less CO2 generated in the production of this bottle.

RECYCLE ME
The bottle is recyclable. Did you know the cap is made of a different plastic to the bottle, so that it can be securely screwed on? That means the best way to facilitate the recycling process is to unscrew the top beforehand.

TRANSPORT IS MORE ENVIRONMENTALLY-FRIENDLY
Through the new bottle, transport is more efficient. To be exact: we can carry 10% more on a pallet, saving a whole pallet in transport for every 10,000 products shipped.

MORE SUSTAINABLE THAN OUR CURRENT BOTTLE
The reduced-plastic solution was discovered after a two year R&D process that examined other bottle alternatives.

FEATURING EFFECTIVE INGREDIENT

Aloe Vera
As the ultimate moisturiser, it has been used to treat skin problems for over 3,000 years. With anti-oxidants like beta-carotene, vitamins C and E, aloe improves the natural firmness of skin. Studies have proven that the gel of the Aloe vera plant provies the skin with moisture and protects it from drying out at the same time.

ALOE BARBENDENSIS LEAF JUICE POWDER
True or medicinal aloe (Aloe vera), also known as Barbados aloe or burn aloe, is a plant species from the Aloe genus. The aloe vera plant has been used medicinally for thousands of years to protect, and soothe the skin. The moisture content of the aloe vera leaf averages at 95%, which is locked in by a waxy outer coat. Studies have proven that the gel of the aloe vera plant can provide the skin with moisture and protect it from drying out at the same time. Aloe vera leaves secrete a clear gel. When you break off a leaf from the rest of the plant you can apply the gel inside to dry, sunburned or wounded skin.
