Ingredients can be harmful for different reasons. Some may dry out the skin while others have been linked to cancer. Often, these ingredients are put into products to make them more pleasing — whether to smell a certain way, create a richer lather or give them a longer shelf life. But our bodies don’t know how to process them. At QUALIS NUTRI, we ensure every ingredient in our products plays a positive role in your health. No downsides or compromises allowed.
In order to create the strictest restricted ingredients list, we have studied the ingredients banned by the top research institutes, NGOs, and associations altogether. This process allowed us to create the strictest ‘blacklist’ in the business. Some of the sources we have consulted or worked with below:
