SKIN 🤝 CARE
our quinta promise
we believe skincare should support more than just your skin. that’s why we choose ingredients that promote a healthy-looking glow and are sourced with care — like our shea butter, which comes from a women-led cooperative in Ghana.
every decision — from sourcing to packaging — is made with long-term impact in mind. for us, mindful skincare means respecting your skin, the people behind the ingredients, and the planet we all share.
OUR MISSION
skincare that heals, not steals
we’re committed to protecting biodiversity and promoting sustainability through every stage of formulation. We partner with suppliers who follow ethical, sustainable farming practices and ensure full transparency in our ingredient selection.
most importantly, we’re proudly palm oil-free — helping protect rainforests and wildlife habitats with every tube we make.𖡼𖤣𖥧𖡼𓋼𖤣𖥧𓋼𓍊
