Why I Choose Elemente Series?


Definitely, Product Safety is the key

In Elemente Series, all raw materials are tested with Material Safety Data Sheet although this is not required.




















All the raw materials are coming from Japan!

Japan's cosmetic regulations are among the strictest in the world. In Japan, Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) regulates cosmetics, quansi-drugs, pharmaceuticals and medical devices according to the Pharmaceutical Affairs Law (PAL) to guarantee their quality, efficacy and safety. 

In Japan, permits are required to manufacture and sell cosmetic, unlike other countries, no regulation and permits required. 

Quansi-drugs 

What are considered as OTC products in other regions may be classified as "quansi-drugs" in Japan. Example of quansi-drugs: skin whitening products, products for dry skin, acne products, anti-dandruff shampoo, hair tonics, hair dyes, etc. 

Quansi drugs are subject to examination for quality, and safety by Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency (PMDA)

For the heavy metal testing, it's most stringent at Japan, as compare to Germany, Japan/USA. 











In Elemente and Nutritional Immunology, I learnt to be wiser consumer. 

Does Advertising term means anything? 

Terms such as hypoallergenic, allergy tested, dermatologist tested - does it means anything? 

How about the word - Natural


















Usage of safer ingredients

For example, Elemente Toothpaste!

Instead of using Fluoride, Triclosan and Sodium Lauryl Sulphate, they use a safer ingredients, such as Hydroxyapatite
