VERBÖDEN'S VALUES

We operate with the following principles:

• Authenticity: We say it like we see it and we see a lot of bullshit in the beauty and cosmetics space. Labels that claim to contain an ingredient that actually contain 0% or brands that claim to be natural but contain known toxins that are banned in the EU but allowed in the U.S. This may mean that we will not be carried by certain mass retailers but we're good with that. Instead we choose to partner with carefully vetted retailers that have a soul (so that's a no to Amazon).
• Trustworthiness: We prioritize consumer education based on scientific studies, expert analyses, and consumer reviews and testimonials that is unbiased so you can make an informed decision about what is best for your own body.
• Transparency: You have a right to know where the ingredients are sourced, how it is processed and who are developing and making your products.
• Philanthropy: We know that we can only thrive if the community we live in thrives too. We are focused on supporting programs that teach nutrition, wellness and meditation to underprivileged kids.
• Sustainability: Preserving the natural beauty of our environment and its resources is a high priority for us. This is why we use ultraviolet glass packaging and minimize use of plastics as much as possible. Where plastics are necessary, we plan to develop and use hemp bioplastics that are biodegradable.
• Privacy: It's your data and you control how it is used

VERBÖDEN'S PHILOSOPHY

Our definition of beauty focuses on long term skin health and self-care from the inside out. So we created a line of products that takes a holistic approach to beauty in which the body is empowered by its own regenerative ability to heal itself. VERBÖDEN is a mission-oriented and socially-conscious wellness beautyfood brand that is designed to make the skin glow from within. When combined with VERBÖDEN's special formulation of wildcrafted botanicals, it becomes a powerful treatment for nearly any skin issue by getting to the root cause.

VERBÖDEN'S holistic approach addresses the whole person – body, mind, and spirit. It is based on the wisdom that our physical health and general sense of well-being are one and the same. Common skin problems like breakouts, rashes and itchy skin, redness, blemishes and signs of accelerated aging is an outward display of a body in distress. The outward skin inflammation is a reflection of the internal inflammation happening in the body. What causes it? Part of it is just a consequence of living in a modern day environment filled with toxins and pollutants. But a major part is due to a diet full of highly processed foods and the barrage of chemicals in nearly all skin products we use daily. If there's a skin problem caused by internal inflammation, applying more chemicals will not only fail to address the root cause of your skin issues but it will exacerbate the problem in the long-term. Using the science of plant medicine, VERBÖDEN's holistic approach empowers the body's own remarkable ability to renew itself by promoting healing from the inside out.
