We’re proud to share that ETHYST® is now officially Leaping Bunny Certified.
This certification represents one of the highest global standards for cruelty-free practices. It means that every ingredient, every formulation, and every stage of development is verified to be free from animal testing.
For us, this isn’t a new direction. It’s a formal recognition of how ETHYST® has always been built.
From the beginning, ETHYST® has operated under the Champagne Standard™, a formulation philosophy that prioritizes integrity at every level. That includes not only what goes into our products, but how those ingredients are sourced, tested, and brought to life.
As a biological skincare brand, we view skin as a living system. The skin microbiome is not something to disrupt or override. It’s something to support. That same philosophy extends beyond the skin to the broader ecosystem we are all part of. Ethical formulation and cruelty-free practices are a natural extension of that belief.
Leaping Bunny certification reinforces what our customers already expect from ETHYST®:
Clarity in standards
Transparency in formulation
And a commitment to doing things the right way, even when it’s harder
In an industry where claims are easy to make and difficult to verify, third-party certifications matter. They give you confidence that what you’re using aligns with your values.
ETHYST® was never created to follow trends. It was built to set a new baseline for what skincare should be.
And this is one more step in that direction.
