Sustainability. Biodiversity. Fair trade.

These aren’t buzzwords, they’re our beliefs.

Our history is steeped in a deep commitment to biodiversity, regenerative practices, and fair trade principles. Every bit of the butters and oils we make come from local and indigenous producers. By supporting these small suppliers that wildcraft, cultivate, and sustainably harvest the best that the Andes and Amazon have to offer, we are able to enhance and empower the communities they come from. We do this by putting 100% of our surplus back into the environment and the lives of the people who protect it.

Working together to create products that can better the planet.

Together, we can go beyond trendy industry buzzwords to make a better world a reality. We don’t just deliver the most high-quality, high-demand ingredients in sustainable beauty. We raise the bar on what beauty can do. What goes into your products can conserve the environment. It can bolster livelihoods. It can create a positive impact on the world at large, while also having that same impact on your customers.

Our practices make it clean and our impact makes it beautiful. That’s what clean beauty is to Candela.
