By Navigating the Path to Uncompromised Beauty with 100% PURE’s Rigorous Standards
Posted on March 28, 2024 Written by: 100% PURE®
At 100% PURE, our dedication to pioneering the most health-conscious and environmentally friendly beauty products sets us apart in the beauty industry. Central to our mission is an unwavering commitment to product purity and consumer safety. This commitment is embodied in our strict adherence to two groundbreaking protocols: the NL10K™ (No List of 10,000 Harmful Ingredients) and the TG30™ (Temperature Guard 30) standards. These standards are not merely guidelines but the foundation of our product formulation and preservation philosophy.
The NL10K™ standard represents our promise to our customers that every product we offer is free from a comprehensive list of over 10,000 harmful or questionable ingredients commonly found in beauty and skincare products. This meticulous approach ensures that every item we produce is not only effective but also safe and nurturing for the skin. By rigorously avoiding these substances, we protect our customers’ health and well-being, reinforcing our position as a trusted name in clean beauty.
Equally important is our TG30™ standard, a testament to our innovative approach to product preservation. The TG30™ ensures that all our products are formulated and stored at optimal temperatures, never exceeding 30°C (86°F). This careful temperature management preserves the integrity of our natural ingredients, ensuring they retain their full efficacy and beneficial properties from production to application. It’s a crucial step in guaranteeing the longevity and effectiveness of our skincare solutions, providing our customers with products that are not only pure but also potent.
Through our steadfast commitment to the NL10K™ and TG30™ standards, we are setting a new benchmark in the beauty industry. We’re not just creating products; we’re revolutionizing skincare by proving that it’s possible to achieve outstanding results without compromising on purity or safety. Our dedication to these principles reflects our deep respect for our customers and the environment, highlighting our role as leaders in the journey toward a more ethical and sustainable beauty industry.
In our journey to redefine beauty and skincare, we at 100% PURE are committed to pioneering standards that not only elevate the quality of our products but also protect the health of our customers and the environment. Central to this mission is our adherence to the NL10K™ standard, a cornerstone principle that ensures our offerings are meticulously free from 10,000 known harmful chemicals and irritants prevalent in conventional beauty products. This stringent standard is not merely a list; it is a testament to our dedication to purity, safety, and sustainability.
The Essence of NL10K™ lies in its comprehensive approach to exclusion. By systematically banning a vast array of substances identified for their potential harm, we safeguard not just skin health but overall well-being. This extensive list encompasses synthetic dyes, animal-derived ingredients, and a variety of chemicals banned by the European Union, reflecting our commitment to a global standard of safety. For instance, parabens, widely used as preservatives in the beauty industry, and synthetic fragrances, which can contain an undisclosed mixture of potentially harmful chemicals, are categorically excluded from our formulations.
We are not just formulating products; we are advocating for a healthier, more sustainable future. It’s a holistic approach that respects the delicate balance of our bodies and the planet, ensuring that every product we offer is not only effective but also free from compromise. At 100% PURE, we believe that beauty should be pure, unadulterated, and beneficial to all aspects of our health, and our unwavering commitment to the NL10K™ standard is a reflection of this belief.
At 100% PURE, we are not just committed to delivering skincare products of unparalleled quality; we’re pioneering the TG30™ standard, a testament to our dedication to preserving the natural potency and integrity of our ingredients. This innovative standard ensures that all our products are formulated, processed, and stored at temperatures below 30 degrees Celsius (86 degrees Fahrenheit). This meticulous approach is more than a benchmark—it’s a promise to our customers that they are receiving products that maintain the highest efficacy and safety standards.
The science behind the TG30™ standard stems from a fundamental understanding of how temperature affects the stability and efficacy of natural ingredients. Many of the precious botanicals, essential oils, and natural compounds we use in our products are sensitive to temperature changes. High temperatures can accelerate the degradation of these ingredients, leading to a loss of their therapeutic benefits and a diminished shelf life. By keeping temperatures strictly below 30 degrees Celsius, we ensure that the structural integrity and therapeutic properties of these ingredients are preserved.
This careful temperature management is particularly crucial for ingredients rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and essential fatty acids, which are known for their sensitive nature. These compounds play a pivotal role in skin health, offering benefits that range from combating oxidative stress to nourishing and repairing skin tissues. The TG30™ standard guarantees that these active compounds remain potent from the moment they are extracted until they are delivered to your skin.
Moreover, this commitment extends beyond just preserving ingredient efficacy. It’s also about ensuring safety. By maintaining our products under these optimal conditions, we minimize the risk of microbial growth and the degradation of natural preservatives, which can compromise product safety. This meticulous care in formulation and storage under the TG30™ standard means that when you choose 100% PURE, you are choosing products that are not only effective but also safe and stable over time.
In embracing the TG30™ standard, we are revolutionizing skincare by ensuring that every jar, bottle, and tube from 100% PURE delivers on its promise of purity and effectiveness. It’s a testament to our unwavering commitment to innovation, quality, and the well-being of our customers.
In an era where the beauty landscape is rapidly evolving, the expectations of consumers have significantly shifted towards a desire for transparency, safety, and efficacy in skincare products. Recognizing this, we at 100% PURE have committed ourselves to not just meet these expectations but to exceed them through our adherence to the NL10K™ and TG30™ standards.
The NL10K™ standard, emblematic of our dedication to natural ingredients, ensures that every product we offer is formulated with components derived from the richest and most potent sources. This standard is our promise to our customers that what they are applying to their skin is not only effective but also pure and devoid of harmful chemicals. In today’s beauty landscape, where the line between natural and synthetic is often blurred, NL10K™ stands as a beacon of trust and integrity, guiding consumers toward products they can use with confidence.
Similarly, the TG30™ standard reflects our mission to transcend the ordinary by delivering skincare products that are both transformative and grounded in scientific efficacy. This standard represents our investment in cutting-edge research and development, ensuring that each product not only meets but surpasses the highest thresholds of performance and safety. TG30™ is about harnessing the power of nature combined with scientific innovation to create skincare solutions that truly make a difference in people’s lives.
Our commitment to these standards is more than just a pursuit of excellence in skincare. It’s a reflection of our broader mission to promote environmental responsibility and ethical practices. By adhering to NL10K™ and TG30™, we are not only ensuring the safety and efficacy of our products but also advocating for sustainable sourcing, cruelty-free testing, and eco-friendly packaging. It’s a holistic approach that considers the well-being of our planet, our animal friends, and the communities we serve.
Moreover, these standards speak volumes about our ethos as a company. They underscore our belief that beauty products should nourish and enrich, not harm or deplete. They are a testament to our vision that true beauty comes from purity and integrity, values that guide every decision we make, from formulation to production.

Can temperatures above 30 degrees Celsius really affect the quality of skincare products?
Yes, temperatures above 30 degrees Celsius can indeed compromise the quality, efficacy, and shelf life of skincare products. Exposure to high temperatures can lead to the degradation of active ingredients, separation of emulsions, and acceleration of product spoilage. Certain ingredients, particularly those that are natural and organic, are more susceptible to these changes. This can result in a decrease in the product’s performance and may also affect its safety. The TG30™ standard is designed to address this by ensuring that products are formulated and tested to retain their integrity and effectiveness within a temperature range up to 30 degrees Celsius.

What can I, as a consumer, do to ensure my beauty products remain within the TG30™ standards after purchase?
To ensure that your beauty products remain within the TG30™ standards after purchase, it is important to store them properly. Avoid exposing products to direct sunlight or storing them in hot environments, such as a car during summer or near heating elements. Instead, keep them in a cool, dry place, preferably at room temperature or below. If a product specifies a particular storage condition (e.g., “keep refrigerated”), follow these instructions carefully. Additionally, ensuring the integrity of the packaging can also help protect the product from temperature fluctuations. By taking these steps, you can help maintain the quality and efficacy of your beauty products in alignment with the TG30™ standards.
