Frequently Asked Questions
product
1. Are your products cruelty-free?
All our products are approved under the Cruelty Free International Leaping Bunny programme, the internationally recognizable gold standard for cruelty free products. Leaping Bunny requires cruelty free standards over and above legal requirements. Our tools -Kunchi Face Brush, Kwansha Facial Coin, Kapas Exfoliating Cloth & Fali Neem Bowl, are accoutrements to oils, masques, serums, etc. and are consciously made of vegan and cruelty free materials.
2. Are your products unisex?
Yes, our entire range is unisex. We believe skin care regimen should be based on your skin type/concerns and not sex.
3. Is your collection safe for pregnancy and children?
Yes, our entire collection is safe for pre-conception, pregnancy, breastfeeding, and beyond. We offer safe treats for your skincare regimen as you go through hormone fluctuations and skin concerns. However, please note that hormone changes and other internal factors could affect your skin and we recommend you check with your physician for that as that will require more than topical treatment.

The shelf life of our products is 18 months - 2 years till sealed. We advise to use the product within 6 months of opening the jar.

Raw pure and potent, our Wild Seaberry and Wild Rosehip seed oils are a rich amber and ruby-hued colour respectively.

Use a smaller amount to work into your skin and build up with more depending on the needs of your skin.

All our ingredients are sustainable and ethically sourced. They are wild-harvested ecologically or cultivated organically and come from farmers and grass root producers who follow vedic, biodynamic or chemical pesticide free farming.

Yes, all our products are vegan with the exception of the Mitti Clay Face Masque, which contains raw honey. We source this ethically from beekeepers who follow sustainable practices.
5. How is the sheen achieved in the Sitara? Is this a cruelty free and ethical product?
The Sitara serum is vegan, cruelty free and preservative free. It is formulated with certified organic oil and natural minerals, which results in the sheen. We use ethically sourced mica with no child labour involved. Colourants, additives and other questionable ingredients are absent from this creation like all our products.
6. Do you add preservatives to your products?
We are preservative free! All our water based formulations are made with natural food grade ingredients like sodium benzoate, sodium anisate, potassium sorbate, and sodium levulinate for shelf life. We consciously source plant derived, non-palm, non-GMO and safe ECOCERT certified ingredients which allows us to label our line as preservative free.
7. Are there any harmful ingredients involved in your formulations?
Gentle on the earth and its creatures, alcohol, preservatives, petrochemicals, parabens, phthalates, palm, formaldehyde, silicones, sulphates, carbomers, glycols, phenoxyethanol, PEG, MEA, DEA, TEA and GMOs are conspicuously absent from our glossary of ingredients. Pre-mix bases, fillers, toxic chemicals, synthetic colours, fragrances, additives and the myriad of questionable chemicals are never a part of our approach.
8. Do you use any synthetic ingredients?
We believe that an all-natural approach is the best and safest for our skin. We take a firm stand to eschew synthetics and lab made ingredients in favour of natural, plant based ones. The efficacy of many medicinal plants and herbs is being validated by modern science and research today. We only use time tested and time honoured Ayurvedic botanicals that perform safely and gently rather than giving quick fix results and long term damage. Our creations are rooted in this indigenous knowledge of natural ingredients and adhered to the Ayurvedic principles.
9. Are your essential oils safe?
According to Ayurveda and aromatherapy, essential oils can be a powerful tool to stimulate your senses and balance our doshas. Just like any powerful medicine, the right proportion and dosage is key. Our essential oils are always therapeutic grade and steam or hydro distilled, never toxic solvent extracted. The percentage use of essential oils we follow is within dermatological limits and guidelines. If you have sensitive skin, which is allergic to essential oils, you may avoid our creations that use essential oils.
