Focus on: Salt & Stone
In which we introduce our latest, and unisex, brand into the Beauty and Grooming department.
WHO?
Salt & Stone is a collection of high-performance botanical skincare, combining natural ingredients with modern-day skin science. Founded in 2017 by former Los Angeles pro snowboarder and keen surfer Nima Jalali, the brand explores our connection with the ocean by focusing on ingredients derived from the sea. In his 20s Jalali suffered a serious knee injury which led him to explore a more natural approach to healing, which in turn led him to explore a more natural approach to skincare. Missing from the market at the time, and essential to the life of an athlete performing in snow and sea, were effective, botanical deodorants and sunscreens. With the help of world renowned chemist, he set about developing his own range.

WHAT?
Many seaweed extracts have been shown to have significant antioxidant properties due to their high levels of bioactive compounds, and are an essential ingredient in our products.

Ingredients are grown and produced in ethical and sustainable ways, without the use of pesticides. Salt & Stone never use artificial fragrances, sulfates, petrochemicals, parabens, phthalates or GMO’s and never test on animals.

WHY?
Salt & Stone are dedicated to maintaining health and wellness by staying active (Jalali may no longer be a professional athlete but he’s still surfing and runs 4 miles a day). The High Performance Botanical Skincare collection is formulated for a broad range of environments and conditions so you can stay active outdoors, boost mental and physical health, and sweat with confidence (God knows, we should all sweat with confidence, it’s the only way).
Salt & Stone pledge to do their best to leave no trace of products or brand in the environment. All of packaging is recyclable. Deodorant and sunscreen containers are made from from ocean plastic and other recycled, biodegradable materials, using Eco Smart technology, which is biodegradable in days, not decades. This proprietary technology enables plastic components to break down in biologically active environments while providing the same form, fit, and function as standard containers. All products are manufactured by renewable solar and hydroelectric energy.
