About Us
The Nash & Jones line began out of necessity. After our babes were born, we all started having awful sensitivities to strong smells, scratchy touch and unnatural food ingredients so we adopted a more natural lifestyle.
This included changes to what we consumed on the inside AND the outside of our bodies.
We started a garden and crafted the first of many products we use daily.
We went back to the earth for naturally grown & harvested ingredients to craft natural & effective solutions.
After all, what we put onto our skin also gets absorbed into the body.
We went back to the earth for naturally grown & harvested ingredients to craft natural & effective solutions.
01
Eliminate the Harmful
What we learned about the ingredients we had been using was shocking. We are appalled by what we were putting on/into our bodies through our skin. Many ingredients are known to be damaging, drying and cancel out the benefits of the good ingredients and yet they are widely used.
With so little ingredient regulation, it is easy to be won by creative marketing and confused by buzz words. We want you to have all of the information you need to make an educated decision about what is right for you and your skin.
02
Replace with Nourishing Ingredients
We didn’t just eliminate harmful ingredients from our regimen, we replaced them with quality ingredients.
Our passion for only consuming clean ingredients led us to craft products to nourish our skin rooted in the amazing benefits of ingredients from the earth including organic oils, essential oils, butters, beeswax, plants, trees, seeds and roots.
We also partner with products from around the world that are harvested from the earth like sea sponges, agave and konjac.
03
Experience Freedom
Our skin produces oils to hydrate and aid our skin’s healthy cell life cycle, so our products employ the highest quality, non-comedogenic oils and complimentary natural ingredients to nourish skin, encourage cell regeneration and keep pores clean & bright.
The great thing about switching to using natural ingredients is that your skin does not have to invent ways to combat them, like the breaking-in period when you switch to a new product with unnatural ingredients. All you need to do is allow your skin to purge and detox past products.
We made a commitment to craft products that were not only amazing for our skin
and bodies but performed even better than big box shelf alternatives.
NO PETROLEUM
Instead of petroleum, we use beeswax to draw and seal the nourishing ingredients into skin. Petroleum, or crude oil, is a fossil fuel. When used in skincare, it sits on top of the skin, tricking it into thinking it got hydrated.
NO FILLERS
Instead of fillers, we use concentrated formulas that our skin recognizes and allows to sink deep. We don’t see the value in creating more volume, but rather concentrated quality that requires less per each application.
NO DYES
Instead of Dyes, we celebrate the Natural Color of Natural Ingredients. Dyes used in cosmetics are often synthetic chemicals and it takes a synthetic cocktail to create just one. They are skin irritants and unnecessary.
NO PERFUMES
Instead of perfumes, we use essential oils to create scent. Perfume oils are inexpensive toxic chemical cocktails that sting noses, stress the immune system and can even create illness. Essential oils not only smell wonderful but have added benefits for skin.
NO CHEMICAL PRESERVATIVES
Instead of chemical preservatives, we use vitamins & small batches. Many preservatives are synthetic chemical cocktails that are skin irritants, skin penetrators, endocrine disrupters and carcinogenic.
NO MINERAL OIL
Instead of mineral oil we use nourishing oils that sink deep to feed skin. Mineral oil is a petroleum by-product that sits on top of skin and clogs pores. It is inexpensive oil yet it costs the skin dearly.
Cruelty-Free
We don’t test on animals. In fact, everything we craft or adopt are products we wish to use ourselves, so your testers are us. We also partner with a supplier who assures us that the boar hair and goat hair used in our brushes was gathered from good practice shearing.
Responsibly Harvested
We partner with companies that employ sustainable methods to harvest natural ingredients in a responsible manner. We use bamboo as a staple in our products. We also partner with a family owned and operated company of divers for our sea sponges.
Derived Naturally
We choose cold-pressed, expeller-pressed and steam-distilled oils and essential oils as well as naturally cleaned and deodorized beeswax instead of other methods that use chemicals to extract and clean ingredients.
Nourishing Earth
We use ingredients that come from the earth and nourish with naturally occurring vitamins and minerals. They have a shelf life shorter than conventional skincare products because of their real ingredients. Much like fruits and veggies vs processed foods.
Why we do what we do
We are a small family owned and operated company. Our foundation for our company is the same as our faith: to love.
Nash and Jones exists to love others. That is the root to everything we do. We craft products that nurture and care for your temple. We do our best to keep sustainability in mind when we choose products that are harvested from the earth and the people that harvest them.
Our company goes way beyond crèmes, cleansers and sponges. Those are the tools that lead up to meeting and loving others. They open us to conversations about self worth and truth. The products are an extension of our arms that give you a hug when we aren’t there. We designed them to deliver goodness to you continually, long after we part ways from a transaction.
