Axiology

Bootstrapped, zero-waste makeup made with 10 ingredients or fewer.

Our take

Why We Trust This Brand

A nine-ingredient food-grade oil-and-butter stick with a public INCI is the opposite of a black box; it is Leaping Bunny and PETA certified, and the founder owns 100%.

What's inside

Ingredients & Safety

Entirely plant oils, butters, and waxes — a castor-oil and kokum-butter base with sunflower, hemp, plum-seed, elderberry, vitamin E, and neem — plus mineral color. No synthetic fillers, fragrance, or preservative system in the anhydrous stick.

Certifications

Leaping Bunny PETA Certified Vegan Palm-oil-free Zero-waste packaging

We read every line on this label. Nothing here is on our watch or caution list — no synthetic fragrance, no flagged chemicals.
