Coming Straight From Mother Nature Since 2007

“Low-waste, sustainable beauty starts with a single question: How can we leave things better than we find them?

As a pioneer in the Clean Beauty space, we’re committed to developing clean and safe formulas without sacrificing performance or quality.”

FOUNDER + CEO

We've Got Clean Standards

B Corp Certified

JOSIE MARAN is officially B Borp Certified, proving that beauty can do good for people, the planet, and future generations.

Clean Ingredients

We follow the strict ingredient standards of Sephora Clean + Planet Aware Beauty, US regulations, and our self-imposed Dirty List.

Safe + Effective

We focus on formula efficacy while maintaining rigorous safety standards, avoiding known irritants and allergens, endocrine disrupters, and carcinogenic and mutagenic ingredients.

Natural Fragrances

Our formulas contain only clean, 100% all-natural fragrances, because what could be better than the real thing?

Transparent Labeling

We highlight all of naturally derived and/or organic ingredients in our formulas, so you’re not left questioning.

Responsible Sourcing

We exclusively utilize ingredients that meet our responsible sourcing standards, using naturally derived and organic ingredients when possible.

We continue to push the envelope by always asking ourselves if there's a better, cleaner way.

The JOSIE MARAN Dirty List

These chemicals and bad-for-you ingredients are never invited to our party:

Phenoxyethanol

Fragrance

Palm Oil + Palm-Derived Ingredients

Palm oil is a versatile and safe ingredient, but most production is currently unsustainable, harming wildlife, ecosystems, and communities. Instead of banning it, we aim to drive demand for ethically and sustainably produced palm oil by ensuring that any palm oils or derivatives that we use meet the minimum of 75% RSPO sourced.

Quaternary Ammonium Compounds

“Glycols”

What’s in Our Formulas… and Why?

We utilize natural and organic ingredients wherever possible, but we also understand the importance of formula efficacy, safety, and stability.

Sometimes ingredients get a bad rep without people knowing the full story. There are a few actives in our formulas that may surprise you—but rest assured—they pass our rigorous Clean and safety standards.

If we wouldn’t put them on our skin, we definitely wouldn’t let you put them on yours.

(Re)think. (Re)use. (Re)fill.

We redesigned our packaging so you can care for your skin and the environment.

Amber-Colored
Glass Jars

These curbside recyclable jars and lids also naturally protect our earth-friendly ingredients from UV rays.

Tree-Saving
Boxes

Every year we save 2,000+ trees by printing our 100% recycled boxes with solvent free, soy-based inks, and water-based coating. Plus, they’re never whitened with water-polluting chlorine.

8,396 Pounds
