FORMULATION
Nature's wisdom has much to teach us. It's time to find a natural way to replenish our bodies and help to preserve our planet.
The Kio Kio bodycare range interacts with the skin’s own amazing biology and uses natural ingredients that the human body has an affinity with, to deliver beautiful soft, silky, skin. The skin is the largest organ of the body – it is a delicate shield of protection covering us from head to toe. Much of what we put on our skin is absorbed directly into our body. For your own protection, the products you apply to your skin should be composed of pure and natural ingredients that are effective and safe.
We have chosen the highest quality natural ingredients to ensure the best quality care for your skin.
This is 'second generation' natural skincare – all the best of modern scientific understanding wrapped around pure, untainted oils and butters that have been used for centuries to safely and beautifully care for skin.
Why would you feed your skin with chemicals that you would never consider eating?
Our first task in formulation is to create quality products without ingredients that may potentially harm the body or irritate the skin. Kio Kio products are free of the toxic chemicals that shouldn't be absorbed by your body or by the environment.
We use NO Parabens.
We have found a safe and effective way to preserve the integrity of our products by using a combination of both natural preservatives and state-of-the-art synthetic preservatives in a minimal dose that is safe and effective.
We have used natural antioxidants such as vitamin E to prevent rancidity. Rancid oils can cause free radical skin damage, making products more damaging to the skin.
We use NO petroleum derivatives and by-products.
We believe there is no place for petroleum in natural skincare. Petroleum products clog up the skin with an unnatural layer of mineral oil that prevents the skin from releasing moisture. The only way of removing it is to wash it off with harsh detergents.
Kio Kio's natural plant-based oils and butters actually allow your skin to do as nature intended – to breathe and achieve correct moisture balance according to individual needs – helping to create skin that is soft, supple and glowing. And you'll use much less Kio Kio each time than you would of a petroleum-based product, because it works so effectively.
We also use NO propylene glycol, PEGS, silicones, GMOs, artificial colours, synthetic fillers, isothiazolinone, DEA or TEA, IBPC, harsh detergents or surfactants. Kio Kio has not commissioned or conducted any animal testing on our ingredients or products.
