We’re Leaping Bunny certified!
What exactly does that mean?

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 products are fragrance free. Specifically, they are created without synthetic fragrances. If you notice a product has a scent, that’s because of the real ingredients we use. For example, if the Enhanced Pineapple Peptide Nectar has a pineapple scent, that’s because we use pineapple extract in it!

Very much a staple in the evening skincare routine. I love it because it's gentle on the skin not as rough as retinol.
