About Us
Simply put, we are obsessed with our skin.
We're obsessed with how it looks and how it feels, now and 20, 30, 40 years from now. We believe that you EARN good skin by doing what it good for your skin. Sure, some lucky gals might have fabulous skin without much work (they might even do things that are BAD for their skin) but it won’t last forever. While you are still getting carded at the wine bar, they will surely be looking their age plus some. In our quest to find the best food to feed our face, we discovered a few shocking truths:
"FDA cannot require companies to do safety testing of their cosmetic products before marketing."
-FDA Office of Cosmetics and Colors, Feb. 3, 1995. GASP! The ingredients that are used in the production of our beloved cosmetics would surely cause you to think twice before committing another $50 to that gorgeous Chanel© eye palette. Toxic ingredients, carcinogenic agents, ingredients that cause reproductive harm are but a few of the serious side effects of these ingredients. (Check out your products at Environmental Working Group). Not only do these ingredients potentially pose serious negative long-term health consequences and actually worsen the condition of your skin, these products are also toxic for the environment and do animal testing. Here at MOI, that is a capital offense as we answer to two very spirited Pomeranians.
So we created a store where all of the best products can be found. Here, you have full access to ALL ingredients used and an explanation to accompany any questions you may have. We believe in full disclosure and accountability. We created a store where we do all the research and product testing so that you can give your brain a rest and not have to worry about (or learn to pronounce) the ingredients in your products.
We also believe that you do not have to sacrifice style or quality to employ products that are good for you, the planet and animals. We have searched high and low, tried A LOT of products (and had some pretty “ugly” days doing so) to bring you the best of both worlds. We do not sacrifice integrity of the product on the principle of good ingredients. Lucky for all of us, we don’t have to. These are great products that are great for you. We have thoughtfully chosen our uber cool products, making them Consciously Chic.
