    Your questions, answered.

    Is Uncommon Beauty a clean beauty brand?

    The Uncommon Clean mission is to create clean, safe, and transparent skincare and fragrance products that you can feel confident using time and time again. While there’s no finite definition of “clean skincare” or “clean fragrance,” we hold our formulas to extremely high standards — everything must be vegan, Leaping Bunny certified, gluten free, silicone free, sulfate free, paraben free, petrolatum free, and phthalate free. Additionally, all skincare is fragrance free, our eau de parfum is EWG verified, and we banned over 2,700 ingredients from our skincare and fragrance product formulations that do not align with our standards. We are also 100% transparent about every ingredient in our skincare and fragrance formulas — nothing’s a secret here.

    Is Uncommon Beauty vegan and Leaping Bunny certified?

    Are other companies still making products that aren’t? Of course our products are cruelty free. We even took the extra step to become Leaping Bunny certified and make all of our products vegan (you’re welcome.)

    Are your products fragrance free?  

    All of our skincare products are synthetic fragrance free. If you notice a product has a scent, that’s because of the ingredients we use. For example, if the Enhanced Pineapple Peptide Nectar has a pineapple scent, that’s because we use pineapple extract in it.

      Perfect for sensitive skin

      This cream is so lightweight, melts into skin, and can already feel that my skin is tighter and pores are minimised. Will definitely be purchasing the full size next!

      Love!

      I’ve always been told that retinol is crucial as you get older, but I never liked using it. Decided to try this retinol alternative and I love it. It’s gentle on my skin and has been beneficial. Will definitely continue to buy it!

      LOVE

      Absolutely love this stuff. I don't have very sensitive skin, so I use it just about every night. It is so lightweight, and after just a month I feel like I already notice a difference. Must have.

      Retinol Alternative

      I love putting this cream on my face right after I have exfoliated it. It’s a great cream and it’s not oily!
