Grows organic botanicals on their own farm in McKinney, Texas. Formulations use natural, farm-harvested ingredients. Paraben-free, sulfate-free product lines. The farm is a real, visitable operation, not a marketing concept.

Women-owned company with US-based production. Profits fund a farm animal sanctuary that rescues abused animals. Named to Inc. Magazine's Best in Business list for putting purpose before profit. Licensed estheticians available for free customer consultations. US labor law applies to all employees.

Private company with no published sustainability report or formal supply chain disclosure. However, the farm itself is a real, visitable location in Texas, which provides a level of tangible transparency unusual for skincare brands. Ingredient sourcing beyond the farm (for non-farm-grown components) is not publicly detailed.

PETA certified cruelty-free, confirmed on PETA's searchable database. No animal testing at any stage of product development, including ingredients and finished products. Suppliers and third parties follow the same cruelty-free standard. Voted a favorite US spa brand for 14 consecutive years by industry professionals.

Core claims are verifiable: the farm exists and is visitable, the cruelty-free status is confirmed by PETA, the animal sanctuary is documented and operational, and the women-owned status is publicly stated. The gap is in supply chain detail for non-farm ingredients, which is common in the skincare industry but noted here for completeness.
