Frequently Asked Questions


PRODUCTS

Do your products contain fragrance? 
Yes, Layers topical products all contain the same allergen-free fragrance that meets the highest global standards for safety. This complex and subtle fragrance is supported by neuroscience to evoke soothing, nourishing, and protecting.

Is your packaging recyclable?
All Layers products are made of recyclable glass or compostable kraft paper in the case of our supplement refill pouches. Our cartons and carton liners are recyclable and are sourced from partners who operate 99% fossil fuel free.  The shipping box and packing materials that your products arrive in are also 100% recyclable.  We’ve limited our use of plastic to product closures (caps, pumps), and we continually look for ways to reduce our environmental impact. We love to see our customers reuse their glass packaging as vases or hair tie holders.

Which of your products are vegan?
All of our products are vegan, except Layers Balancing Milky Cleanser, which contains yogurt powder for its prebiotic properties. Our supply chain is very transparent, and our yogurt powder is sourced from humanely raised cows in Ireland.
 
Do you test on animals?
Never. We use clinical testing with a dermatologist to ensure our products are safe and effective. All Layers products are cruelty-free.

Can I take Layers supplements in addition to my current medications/vitamins?
We recommend checking with your doctor before starting any new supplements routine in combination with medications.

Are your products clean and safe? 
We carefully select our ingredients, with over 1300 ingredients on our “made without” list, including Parabens, Sulfates SLS and SLES, Phthalates, formaldehydes, formaldehyde-releasing agents, mineral oil, oxybenzone, coal tar, hydroquinone, talc, triclosan, triclocarban. We meet strict EU standards, and closely monitor evolving science to ensure that our products only have ingredients that are good for skin. 

Once formulated, we complete rigorous stability, micro, and patch testing on all of our products to ensure you receive a quality product that won’t irritate your skin.
