new organic skincare line...nude

Thanks to my connected roommate Sabrina, I found amazing new products in my shower by nude. Nude is a wonderful organic skincare line from the UK and soon be avaliable in the US launching at Barneys. My favorite were the facial scrub (pictured below) and the Monoi body oil. Also from the nude website I pulled a good summary of what they are all about...and I loved their opening question which is something we should all ask ourselves!! Considering our skin such a large part of our body!


Why do we feed our skin chemicals we would never consider eating?
nude is free from the chemicals you would rather your body didn’t absorb.

Our first priority is to formulate without ingredients which are irritating to the skin or potentially harmful to the body and we have minimised our use of preservatives by using airless packaging. Where necessary, we have selected a safe, non-irritating, synthetic preservative because the natural option caused skin irritation.

We will always choose organic ingredients wherever possible. However, some of the advanced ingredients we use, such as peptides from milk, simply aren’t available organically.

nude has not conducted, or commissioned any animal testing on ingredients or products and we actively support the development of alternative ingredient testing methods through sponsorship of the UK charity FRAME.
