The Zero List Zero parabens, phthalates, sulphates, silicones, PEGs, petrochemicals, palm oil, artificial fragrance. Why we exclude these
We formulate by leaving things out. These ingredient groups never make the cut.
Parabens
Preservatives that absorb through skin and behave like a weak oestrogen once inside the body. Regulators call current levels safe. The long term picture is still being written, and we would rather not test it on your face. Our formulas are oil based and stable on their own, so there is no water here to preserve.
Phthalates
Hormone disruptors, linked most strongly to reproductive and developmental harm, and detectable in almost everyone tested. In skincare their only job is making synthetic fragrance cling. We do not use synthetic fragrance, so they never enter the formula.
Sulphates
Foaming detergents that strip the lipids holding your barrier together, leaving skin tight and quicker to react to whatever follows. We cleanse with oil, which lifts the day off and leaves the barrier where it belongs.
Silicones
They sit on the surface and perform smoothness in the formula without delivering any to your skin. This one is not about your health, it is about the water. Two of the most common, D4 and D5, are restricted in Europe for how long they persist once they wash down the drain. We use plant oils your skin absorbs, so the softness is yours.
PEGs
Made using ethylene oxide, which can leave traces of itself and 1,4-dioxane behind in the finished ingredient. Both are carcinogens. PEGs also make skin more permeable to whatever else is in the bottle. Where a formula needs to rinse clean, we use a plant derived emulsifier which doesn't have the same risks.
Petrochemicals
Refined from crude oil. The aromatic fraction, the part carrying the carcinogens, is meant to be stripped out during refining, and whether it actually was is not something a label will ever tell you. Independent testing keeps finding products where it wasn't. That is a lot of trust to place in a step you cannot see, for an ingredient that seals the surface and feeds it nothing. Every oil in a Zero Zero formula comes from a plant you can name.
Palm oil
Refined at high heat, palm produces more glycidyl esters than any other vegetable oil. The body converts them to glycidol, a probable human carcinogen that European regulators refused to set any safe level for. That evidence comes from eating it, not wearing it. Skin absorbs a meaningful amount of what you put on it, and we are not interested in finding out where that line sits. The forest it came from is the other half of the answer. We formulate without palm entirely, derivatives included.
Artificial fragrance
The single biggest cause of allergic reaction in cosmetics, and one word on a label can legally stand for dozens of compounds you will never be told about, phthalates among them. Every scent in a Zero Zero formula is an essential oil that you can see named on the list.
