Our Ingredients
By now, we all know the dangers of big shampoo and big lotion. Complex and unnatural ingredients, plastics, hormone disruptors, the list goes on and on. At JW Honey, we're passionate about your health and making better, natural alternatives to the traditional skin care and hair care that we've come to rely on.
At JW Honey, we think beauty should be simple. That's why we use the fewest ingredients possible in all of our products, and why all of our ingredients work synergistically with each other.
