We believe in creating products that not only give you an instant confidence boost, but help enhance your favorite features over time thanks to powerful results-driven formulas. We thoroughly test performance and safety so you can discover how they work for you, not if they work. How do you test for performance? During formulation, we work with a network or internal team members and external testers to provide detailed feedback on products we are developing. We analyze this data and continue to formulate until we achieve a highly effective product. Once we finalize a formula, we work with third-party research facilities to perform one or more of the following:
Consumer perception study
Clinical study
Clinical grading
Instrumental measurements
This testing ensures that our products do what they say! What kind of safety tests do we run? Once we finalize a formula, we work with third-party research facilities to test:
Stability and compatibility with our packaging
Protection against the growth of microorganisms
Potential to irritate skin or eyes
Elemental impurities such as arsenic, lead, mercury, 1,4-Dioxane, etc.
We test a minimum of 6 safety characteristics on all cosmetics, and often more.
Our CLEAN Promise
“Clean beauty” isn’t regulated, but it’s become a mainstream term that doesn’t have a set definition. To us, clean beauty means prioritizing safe and cruelty-free ingredients (we’re Leaping Bunny certified 🐰), practicing honesty and transparency with our community, sustainable packaging, and above all - ethical business and production practices. We want to do our part in contributing to making a cleaner beauty industry without ever sacrificing quality or performance in any of our products.
Manufacturing
Babe Original’s manufacturing facilities follow international standards for cosmetics established by ISO 22716. These good manufacturing practices provide guidelines for production, control, storage, and shipment of cosmetics.
TL;DR
The Babe Original team passionately maintains high standards for quality, safety, and performance. We believe in creating products you can trust to support your most original self.
