INGREDIENT SPOTLIGHT - THE NATURAL POWER OF ESSENTIAL OILS

It’s no secret that we love using essential oils in our products. The entire Sorted Skin Range contains naturally-active ingredients, essential oils and extracts. We wanted to bring you the best formulations to give your skin the boost of TLC it’s been needing, without adding in extra synthetic ingredients, perfumes and parabens that can damage your skin’s microbiome. Making the switch to natural products that are rich in essential oils can improve the health, quality and appearance of your skin. Meet some of our favourites…
