Vegetable Oils and Butters

- Organic Castor Oil (Asia): Indispensable to all natural lipstick formulas, this thick oil ensures the hold and good dispersion of pigments.

| Vegetable Waxes |
- Candelilla wax (Mexico): An essential element in the manufacture of a stick, it also acts as a film for even more protection.
- Organic Carnauba Wax (Brazil): This very hard wax provides resistance and hold to lipstick, to prevent it from breaking or crushing.

| Natural Pigments and Minerals |
- Silica (): These small mineral spheres provide softness and an unrivaled matte finish.
- Pigments (): Only natural pigments, because we would not have thought of ingesting synthetic products. And because we have looked for, but have not yet found a satisfactory natural alternative, some formulas contain carmine. This is visible by the mention Vegan or Not Vegan on your leaflet.
- Hydroxyapatite and Calcium Carbonate (France): Replacements for titanium dioxide, these are natural minerals that provide good opacity to colors.
- Natural Micas (United States): Small particles of minerals coated with a thin layer of pigments to provide golden or red reflections. Often mined in India for their quality, they are unfortunately subject to the exploitation of children in this country. Refusing to participate in this abuse, our micas are mined in the United States.

| A Perfume and Natural Active Ingredients |
- Le Parfum Naturel (France): Because many emotions pass through smells, its perfume has been worked on with a French laboratory specializing in aromacology. It is composed of essential oils selected and dosed specifically for the mucous membrane of the lips as well as natural isolates. Isolates are purified extracts of essential oils.
- Natural Vitamin E (Spain): Containing no water, lipsticks are not prone to bacteria. On the other hand, all these fatty substances can oxidize and become rancid, this is where vitamin E comes into play thanks to its antioxidant power. This is extracted from sunflower oil.
