Pure n' Bio
What regulators, studies and certification actually say — and what our certified-organic formula does differently.
PEG-based cleansers (PEG-6/-7/-40 and similar) come from the ethoxylate family, which can carry trace 1,4-dioxane — classified by IARC as Group 2B (possibly carcinogenic). The amounts are small per product; the concern is cumulative.
Source: IARC Monograph — 1,4-dioxane ↗Our certified-organic micellar waters use APG (alkyl polyglucoside) — a fully plant-derived cleanser that's biodegradable, close to skin's pH, and free of ethoxylate contamination risk. Same kind of bottle, fundamentally different contents.

In our certified products, every allergenic fragrance component is named on the label (Limonene, Linalool, Citral…) so a sensitive customer knows exactly what she's avoiding. EU rule 2023/1545 expands required allergen labelling to 80+ components.

The product you receive in Riyadh is the exact one sold in a Vichy pharmacy in France. Verify any certificate by number at cosmos-standard.org.
