What makes BASED Skincare different from other "clean" skincare brands?
Most brands compromise—they're either truly clean but ineffective, or they work, but are filled with harsh synthetic compounds. BASED delivers on both: premium performance using only high quality non-toxic ingredients that work with your skin. No fillers, no shortcuts—just revolutionary skincare. We are setting the new gold standard.

Do these products contain synthetic fragrance or harsh preservatives?
No. We don’t use any added fragrance in our skincare products. Both products have a light fresh aroma because of the eucalyptus oil, which is added for its naturally purifying properties. Both also feature our non-toxic full spectrum preservative system (potassium sorbate + sodium benzoate) that's gentle on skin. Formulated without parabens, phthalates, synthetic fragrances, or hormone disruptors—just clean, effective skincare.
