Ingredients

The PÜRE Collection 

Is way ahead the curve of other skincare brands, we use the finer, rarer ingredients that produce better results, we choose not to use the same common ingredients found so often in the skincare industry today. 

Our research has shown that our organic ingredients contain multiple and higher percentages of properties that work in harmony producing incredible skin benefits.

Sometimes these ingredients are difficult to source, however we are not prepared to compromise using cheap alternatives or imitations.

*Comedogenic Rating

Is a scale that shows how likely a specific ingredient may clog your pores, the scale ranges from a number between 0 – 5, with 0 being non-comedogenic and 5 being the most severely comedogenic.

Those who are susceptible to acne and blackheads should avoid high comedogenic rating oils as these are more likely to cause recurring acne problems, however those with drier skin may prefer a more emollient oil towards the middle of the scale.
