Have you ever imagined that our world is filled with harmful skincare substances?

According to a study by EWG, the largest cosmetic database organization in the United States, in 2005, more than 200 industrial components and contaminants were detected in the umbilical cord blood of newborn infants.

This result shows that the cosmetics and skin care products that women use every day contain a lot of harmful ingredients. And it will enter the body and stay in the blood, and even pass it to the baby through the placenta. To reduce the absorption of harmful ingredients, we must choose safe and non-toxic clean beauty products.

Therefore, Formulas is committed to providing everyone with a safe and non-toxic choice of skin care products.

It's Formulas' nontoxicity metric, It's the future we want to build.
