A More Sustainable Future
Innovation to create a more sustainable future.
A skincare science brand on a mission to create massive change.
From formulation through to packaging, we have challenged ourselves to push beauty industry standards at every touchpoint, and offer new, novel, and innovative sustainable solutions, because we believe we can create a more sustainable future, and inspire a new generation of modern sustainable luxury to drive positive change.
We are still a small company at the beginning of our journey, but we saw that as a strategic advantage to get things right from the onset. We are proud of the work we have done thus far, and are already being considered an innovator, disruptor, and leader in the beauty industry.
Still, we are committed to pushing ourselves to do better, and believe we can.
At Ädesē™, we design, develop and formulate in-house, using the highest-quality ingredients, materials, and high-end design details, to flourish a renewed approach to efficacious minimalist skincare and modern sustainable luxury.
Clean high-performance beauty.
Formulating with natural ingredients, without sacrificing on efficacy and performance, is a unique challenge that many fail, and one that we have superseded in every capacity. Two years of research and development went into our innovative formulas, ensuring we were producing products that were not only the highest-quality, but also the highest-performing; creating our own proprietary Walled Garden™ technology in the process.
We formulate with premium natural ingredients, and our products are free from fillers, preservatives, or additives, as well as BHA/BHT, Formaldehyde and Formaldehyde Donors, Oxybenzone, Parabens, Phthalates, Sulfates (SLS and SLES), and Triclosan.
We have superseded all beauty industry standards including, Clean at Sephora, Conscious Beauty at Ulta Beauty®, the EU’s list of 1,300 banned chemicals (just 11 are banned in the US,) and proudly belong to HOLTS SUSTAINABLE EDIT.
We can trace the origin of our premium ingredients through our entire supply chain, and all of our ingredients are organic, cruelty free, vegan, fair trade, and non-GMO.
All Ädesē™ products are formulated and tested in Canada in our own lab, which adheres to the highest-standards, and is completely outfitted with the most modern and energy efficient equipment to ensure the lowest carbon footprint.
Recyclable, reusable, and iconic.
Nearly everything is made in China, quite poorly, and with little to no oversight, and that is not hyperbolic.
Even before we began formulating, we had a clear vision for what our packaging needed to be, recyclable, reusable, and iconic. Naively, we believed that we would have to pay a premium, but that quality packaging manufacturing and craftsmanship, still existed in North America. Unfortunately, it does not.
Our packaging took longer than our products to design and develop, because nothing like it existed, and we eventually had to go to Italy to find the level of craftsmanship we required. The result, however, is our beautiful, bespoke, and trademarked, Äirlēss Glass Refills™, which we are very proud of.
They are recyclable, reusable, and in our opinion, iconic.
Not only do they meet all of our initial requirements from an environment and aesthetics perspective, functionally, the airless technology also extends and ensures the life and efficacy of our premium ingredients and formulas; right down to the last drop.
Ultimately, they were designed to produce as little waste possible, and we’re still working on ways of reducing our impact.
A 79% reduction in fossil fuels, which is equal to 360 homes powered yearly.
An 84% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, which is equal to 203 cars driven yearly.
An 83% reduction in water waste, which is equal to 34 Olympic sized swimming pools.
Materially innovative.
To touch and hold an Ädesē™ product is an elevated sensorial experience from start to finish. Every detail has been expertly crafted with the utmost attention to detail and at the highest-level currently possible.
When you pick up an Ädesē™ product from the shelf, you will notice our paper packaging feels different and softer, because our FSC certified recycled paper packaging is 100% recyclable and made with damaging algal blooms of the Venice lagoon and other fragile marine areas.
When you receive an Ädesē™ product in the mail, you will notice our mailer looks unique and purposeful, because our Eco Packaging Alliance certified mailers are made from 100% recycled materials, giving plastics in circulation a second life, and are both reusable and recyclable.
Most importantly, the first time you use an Ädesē™ product, you will notice how rich and sophisticated they are, likely unlike anything you have ever experienced, because nothing quite like them have ever existed. Use our products consistently, and over time, you will notice how dramatically they will improve the appearance of your skin.
