How I Vet Suppliers: Ensuring Sustainability and Purity in Every Ingredient

How I Vet Suppliers: Ensuring Sustainability and Purity in Every Ingredient

Posted by DelRae Cicinelli on

At Loil Life, my commitment to clean, natural skincare begins long before the product reaches your hands. It starts with a rigorous vetting process to ensure that every ingredient I use is pure, sustainable, and ethically sourced. Transparency is key in my approach to crafting skincare that you can trust, and that means going behind the scenes to ensure my suppliers meet the highest standards.

Why Sustainability Matters

Sustainability isn’t just a buzzword for me—it's a core principle. The health of our planet is directly connected to our well-being, which is why I’m committed to sourcing ingredients that are responsibly harvested with minimal impact on the environment. Whether it’s choosing plant-based oils or herbal extracts, I always prioritize suppliers that practice sustainable farming methods, fair labor practices, and eco-friendly production processes.

Purity Above All

I believe skincare should be as close to nature as possible, which is why I only use ingredients in their rawest form. Pre-made components like aloe butter or aloe vera gel? Not at Loil Life. Instead, I handcraft these ingredients myself, ensuring there are no hidden additives or chemicals. For example, our aloe butter is made by blending coconut oil with pure aloe extract, and our aloe gel is crafted from raw aloe juice mixed with a natural gelling agent like xanthan gum.

The Vetting Process

Each supplier I work with must pass a detailed evaluation. I look for transparency in how ingredients are grown, harvested, and processed. Can they prove their ingredients are free from harmful pesticides or contaminants? Are they committed to fair trade and environmentally responsible practices? These are just a few of the many questions I ask before bringing a new ingredient into Loil Life.

Transparency You Can Trust

My ultimate goal is to provide you with skincare that not only works but aligns with your values. That means being open about where each ingredient comes from, how it’s sourced, and why it’s chosen. When you use Loil Life products, you can feel confident knowing that every ingredient has been carefully selected for its purity, efficacy, and sustainability.

In a world where it's easy to cut corners, I’m proud to take the time to do things the right way. Because your skin—and the planet—deserve nothing less.
