1. What do you mean by 'harmful chemical' free?
a. We use Paraben-free preservatives that are used in baby care formulations and are thus very gentle
on the skin. Most commercial products use Paraben based preservatives. A number of researchers
and skin care experts have discovered that this preservative can be toxic. It can increase the
tendency of developing estrogen - dependent diseases like breast tumors, decrease the sperm cell
count among males, promote skin allergic reactions like contact dermatitis and rosacea, spur the
development of skin cancer and may cause problems to foetal development for pregnant women.
b. All our products are synthetic surfactant (SLS, Cocobetaine) free. Sodium Lauryl Sulphate (or
Sodium Laureth Sulphate) is an ingredient employed in most Soaps, Body Washes and Shampoos
for 3 reasons - it's cheap, it makes the mixture foam well and thickens it appreciably. Sodium
Lauryl Sulphate (SLS) may have several side effects - improper eye development in children,
cataract, nitrate absorption (nitrates are known carcinogenic agents), penetration into systemic
tissues (brain, heart, liver), skin irritation and skin dryness.
2. My Soap / Body Wash does not lather like commercial soap?
It is the biggest misconception that lather assists in the cleansing process.
Most commercial soaps contain synthetic surfactants like SLS, side effects of
which are mentioned above.

3. My lotion foams into a white residue which lasts for two minutes after application ?
This residue is completely normal and infact is a testimony of our 'pureness ' .
This residue lasts for approximately 1-2 minutes after application. This can
easily be avoided by gently massaging Puro Body Lotions well into the skin.
Puro products do not contain synthetic silicones (Dimethicone) used in most
commercial moisturizers that help avoid foamy residues. Silicone emollients
are occlusive - that is they coat the skin, trapping anything beneath it, and do
not allow the skin to breathe. Some synthetic emollients are known tumour
promoters and accumulate in the liver and lymph nodes. They are also non-
biodegradable, causing negative environmental effects.
At Puro, we believe in providing you genuinely pure ingredients that have
therapeutic value for your skin. In addition to this guarantee, we also strive to
work diligently to ensure that none of the products we carry contain
ingredients that are harmful to you or our environment.
4. What do you mean by cruelty free products?
None of our body care products are tested on animals. All Puro products are
suitable for vegetarians, as they contain no animal by-products such as Lanolin
or Beeswax.
5. Does Puro deliver ?
Yes. Puro products are delivered. Kindly contact us on the numbers
