What is the production process of Peace and Skin products? What makes it truly sustainable?

P&S: There is a strict selection of the ingredients that are incorporated into Peace and Skin products. They must be vegan, follow the organic regulation criteria, and produced in an environmentally responsible manner. Each formualr contains a maximum of twenty ingredients so we choose them carefully. 

We also work with a factory that is accredited by Ecocert, an organic certification organization that ensures environmentally friendly and socially conscious practices. And orders are shipped in packaging made with 100% recyclable materials.

For someone who is just getting started with skincare, what are essential Peace and Skin products to try?

P&S: Newcomers should start with our Gentle Cleanser. It’s necessary twice a day to clean and prepare the skin to receive more products. Next, use the Essential Cream. Its texture is light and serves as the perfect makeup base. It will keep your skin feeling hydrated all day.

What is the most rewarding part of the brand’s fruition? What has been the most challenging?

P&S: The best part of our brand’s fruition is the process of creating a new product. We follow multiple steps to get to the perfect texture and scent. Designing the packaging is also fun when we consider the many artwork possibilities. 

The most challenging part is being able to stand out in the market with our products. The skincare industry is highly competitive.

What can we expect to see in the future from Peace and Skin?

P&S: We are developing new products! Right now, we’re working on a face scrub made from hemp seeds.
