    Is this clean?

    At Teak, we do not use the terminology "clean" because there is no global standard for what defines "clean" beauty. So instead, we have opted to follow Credo's guidelines for "clean" ingredients.

    Our ingredient policy is as follows:

    Vegan, Vegetarian, Cruelty Free, Kosher, BHT Free, BHA Free, Gluten Free, Paraben Free, Pthalates free, Sulfate Free, and European Union compliant.

    Wear Time: Normal

    This product is made with clean ingredients and does not include any harsh longwear chemicals that you may commonly find in your longwear lipsticks. This is a normal-wear lipstick that we formulated to be non-drying and smooth to apply. While high pigment lipsticks provide full coverage, they do so at the expense of irritating lip skin and drying it out, leaving you with a cracked and chapped look. That's why we decided to lower the pigment levels slightly in this lipstick, so that you still get good coverage, but without the unwanted lip dryness and damage.

    Hello There,

    We wanted to participate in the brown lipstick trend, but all of the ones we tried on the market seemed a bit...well, grey. We needed something with a bit of reddish punch to it so that it would complement our brown complexions, so we set off to make it ourselves. We came up with Riya, a burnt sienna that pays homage to the browns we see and love from the 90s, but South Asian style. It's a shade that makes more of a bold statement when you walk into the room, but in a good way. It has subtle orange undertones that make sure you'll never look washed out when you have it on. 

    The formula is vegan and free of parabens, sulfates, and pthalates. It's cruelty free, as well. 

    We also added a touch of peppermint to give it a refreshing, cooling feeling on your lips. We hope you like it!

    Sincerely,
    Nupoora & Pooja
    Co-founders, Teak
