Frequently Asked Questions
-
How do clean new skin care products differ from natural or organic options?
Organic skin care products must adhere to strict guidelines set by the USDA Organic program, while natural skin care products don't have a legal definition and can contain natural or naturally-derived ingredients. Clean new skin care products also lack a legal definition, which is why we have created The Credo Clean Standard™. This industry-leading standard ensures that all the skin care products we offer are free from over 2700 ingredients that have been linked to negative environmental or skin effects. -
What sets clean new skin care products apart from regular skin care products?
Clean skin care products at Credo Beauty go through a rigorous vetting process to ensure they meet our industry-leading standards. This means that our products not only effectively address your skin concerns, but also do so without any of the potentially harmful ingredients itemized on our Dirty List. This ensures that these products are free from harsh ingredients such as parabens and phthalates, which are commonly found in regular skin care products and have been linked to negative health or environmental effects. -
How do clean new skin care products leverage innovative technologies for better results?
A clean new skin care product will often use cutting-edge and scientifically-backed ingredients such as bio-ferments, plant peptides, and next-generation ceramides, which all contribute to overall improved skin health and address specific skin care concerns more effectively than traditional formulations. Some clean skin care brands use highly advanced delivery systems to enhance the penetration of key ingredients, such as hyaluronic acid, ensuring better absorption and, inevitably, more noticeable results. -
How do clean new skin care products cater to specific skin concerns, such as acne or hyperpigmentation?
Many clean skin care products feature specialized formulations that address specific skin concerns, such as acne prone skin or hyperpigmentation. If you prefer a holistic approach to skin care but don’t want to compromise on ingredient safety, clean skin care products could be just what you need to enhance your skin care routine. Clean skin care products use natural actives known for their efficacy in treating acne and reducing hyperpigmentation, helping to achieve cleaner skin and replenishing the skin barrier. These natural actives also help to achieve brighter skin and promote a more even skin tone overall. -
What role do clean new skin care products play in environmental sustainability and ethical sourcing?
All the new clean beauty brands we work with have to meet our sustainable and ethical sourcing criteria. This means that their products are not tested on animals, omit or restrict many animal-derived ingredients, and favor vegan alternatives where possible. It also means that they follow sustainable packaging practices, such as using recycled or recyclable materials and offering refill options. Plus, by avoiding the ingredients on our Dirty List, their products minimize the use of harmful chemicals that can pollute the environment and harm wildlife. -
How do clean new skin care products adapt to evolving consumer needs and scientific advancements?
Clean new skin care products often adapt and evolve in line with consumer needs and scientific advancements. The brands that create them listen to feedback and stay abreast of scientific advancements to ensure they’re continually improving product formulations to effectively address emerging skin care concerns. They also often invest in ongoing research and development to ensure they stay at the forefront of skin care innovation and that their products are aligned with the latest scientific discoveries in skin care.
