🐄 5 Ingredients You’ll Never Find in MOOey MOOey Products (And Why)

At MOOey MOOey, we believe in full transparency, whole ingredients, and treating your skin the way nature intended—without the junk. Every balm, butter, and wash we make is rooted in real, recognizable goodness.

Here are 5 ingredients we’ve intentionally banned from our lineup—and exactly why we’ve said “NO thanks” to each:


1. Fragrance Oils (Synthetic Perfumes)

Why we avoid it:
“Fragrance” may sound harmless, but it’s often a cover for dozens of undisclosed chemicals—some linked to hormone disruption, allergies, and skin irritation.

What we use instead:
We scent our products (if at all) with pure, skin-safe essential oils, carefully chosen for both aroma and benefit.


2. Parabens

Why we avoid it:
Parabens are commonly used as preservatives in beauty products, but they’ve been found in breast tissue and are suspected hormone disruptors.

What we use instead:
Our products don’t need harsh preservatives—our formulas are made fresh, small-batch, and naturally shelf-stable using ingredients like beeswax and tallow.


3. Petroleum-Based Ingredients (Like Mineral Oil or Petrolatum)

Why we avoid it:
These ingredients can clog pores and do nothing to actually nourish the skin—they just sit on top as a barrier.

What we use instead:
Tallow is bioavailable and packed with skin-loving vitamins A, D, E, and K. It supports healing and helps your skin function like it should.


4. Phthalates

Why we avoid it:
Phthalates are chemicals often used to make plastics more flexible—and they sneak into skincare through synthetic fragrances. They’re known endocrine disruptors and are banned in many countries.

What we use instead:
We don’t use synthetic anything—so phthalates never enter the picture.


5. Water (as a filler)

Why we avoid it:
Water isn’t harmful—but in many conventional lotions, it's used as a cheap filler. This requires preservatives and emulsifiers to keep the product from spoiling.

What we use instead:
Our products are anhydrous (water-free), meaning they’re richer, more concentrated, and don’t need extra preservatives. A little goes a long way.


✨ Final Thoughts

You deserve skincare that’s as honest as it is effective. At MOOey MOOey, we’re proud to stand behind every ingredient we use—and just as proud of the ones we leave out.
