Meet (some of) the Ingredients

We don’t need fine print, we use fine ingredients!

  • Our products contain the highest quality and organic ingredients.
  • Our products are cruelty free (our kitties have luscious, thick fur from their daily dose of organic coconut oil)!
  • Our products are vegan or “bee-gan” (some products use honey or beeswax).
  • Our products are gluten free.

We are proud of each and every ingredient we use, and we are completely transparent about what goes into our products. We wholeheartedly believe in using ingredients that have life-giving qualities. Each ingredient we use has a specific and positive purpose for being in the product.

At Cura.Te, our goal is to educate you about the ingredients in our products. All of our ingredients are USDA certified organic whenever possible and the highest quality available. Some ingredients do not come USDA certified organic yet are still farmed organic, wild harvested, or fair trade.

Unlike most products on the market today, Cura.Te products don't have any chemicals at all...None. Zero. Zilch. Whether that be the known, highly toxic, carcinogenic chemicals, any chemicals where there is moderate concern to humans and/or the environment, to even the chemicals where there is "low" concern (although we aren't sure there really is such a thing), to us, it's not worth ANY risk. Our ingredients connect with the roots of cleaning, being harmless, yet powerful. You may recognize everything in our products. If not, we will give you the opportunity to learn about new-to-you herbs, oils, and butters. You can learn more by asking questions on social media or emailing our team.
