Against Unnecessary Chemicals
We do not stock any products that contain harmful chemicals or unnecessary synthetic ingredients that have been proven toxic and harmful to human health.
Men want to look good and improve the condition of their skin. 60% of what you put on your skin gets absorbed into the blood stream. In today’s world we are constantly exposed to harmful and toxic ingredients.
For those reasons, when it comes to safe synthetic preservatives ingredients, our products have been sourced to contain just the tiniest traces – NONE or always the lowest percentage - to help maintain the stability of ingredients used.
Because the products we stock contain the lowest amount possible of synthetic preservatives, the shelf-life of our products rarely exceed 12 months.
element:5 is a conscious and innovative company, strong on limiting our exposure to unnecessary chemicals. All of our products contain over 80% natural ingredients.
Against Animal Testing
We only stock products made by companies that do not test their products on animals, nor pay third parties to do animal testing for them.
Always the Truth
We do recognise that in some occasions, safe level of synthetics or semi-synthetic substances are necessary in certain products such as body washes, shampoos and conditioners, in order to avoid the growing of harmful moulds and bacteria. This necessity has also been recognised by the Soil Association to guarantee the safety of certain natural and/or organic products.
Some of our brands use safe levels of synthetic or semi synthetic preservatives and we will always clearly label those products and the synthetic ingredients used.
Whenever possible, all our brands use natural preservative systems.
More of the good stuff, less of the bad stuff… as simple as that!
