Ingredients
Read the stories of some of our mindfully and sustainably sourced ingredients below.
No end to the Rainbow Algae
Our beautiful Rainbow Algae is like a Chameleon of the sea, becoming iridescent in water and changing from blue to green to purple.
Sourced of the coast of Brittany in France, the “land” of marine agriculture. At low tide a causeway opens up carved into the rocks where a unique seaweed harvesting area opens up, containing the Cystoseira Tamariscifolia or Rainbow Algae.
100% hand harvested a few km from the coast, the shoots of the year are hand cut with a knife, ensuring all roots are left fully in tact to regrow, minimize waste and ensure everything else is left in place.
'Green' Green Tea
Our Green Tea is processed using eco-friendly methods, uses 100% renewable energy and recycles everything used in the processing, from waste water to composting plant waste.
Upcycled Rice Bran
Our zero waste Rice Bran is sustainably sourced from the food industry. After rice has been 'polished', Phytic Acid can be naturally extracted. The rice waste product would usually be discarded, but instead can be upcycled and used as an effective, gentle chemical exfoliator.
Passionate about Maracujá
Our Maracujá is sustainably sourced from Peru, upcycled from the juicing industry.
The passion fruit seeds are left behind and would be discarded as waste. They contain bioactive skin soothing benefits, and are now sold on to the beauty industry to create not one, but three different types of ingredient with different uses.
The manufacturer works with local supply chains to support promoting commercial best practices including fair pricing. They also transfer their knowledge to improve product quality production processes and provide access to healthcare for their workers.
