SAYES Clean Beauty Standards

When any beauty brand claims to be clean and green, they need to back it up.

The SAY Clean Standards are built on three important pillars:

Accountability, Transparency, and Education.

We educate our customers on the importance of ingredient-consciousness - being aware of what they apply on their skin and hair, as well as being well-informed on how certain ingredients might affect the environment.

We use Sustainable Ingredient Alternatives:

- 100% of palm derivatives used in our products is purchased RSPO certified

- plant-derived cold processable emulsifiers

- plant-derived preservatives, solubilisers, thickeners, botanicals actives, chelating agents, antioxidants, surfactants, emollients, humectants, fragrances
