Shaant Refining Toner

When it comes to treating breakouts and acne-prone, oily skin, we are obsessed with this potent line by Codex Labs. You don’t have to take our word for it – during clinical trials 90% of users agreed that their skin is softer and more supple, 86% would say their skin is moisturized/hydrated, and 80% agree that their skin is less irritated.

What’s more, Codex Labs are raising the bar when it comes to responsible, sustainable production. Their bottles are 50% recycled PCR PET and carry the Carbon Footprint Standard’s CO₂e Assessed Product stamp of approval. The Carbon Footprint Standard is an internationally recognized certification for demonstrating low carbon credentials. Their cartons and pamphlets carry either PEFC or FSC (sustainable forestry) certification and are compostable.

From the ultra-chic, biodegradable packaging to the sustainable formulas that really work, we are completely obsessed with Codex Labs, who are setting a new standard in skincare. Grounded in science, Codex Labs combines biotech processes with the potency of wild-harvested plants to develop this pioneering line of products which yield clinically proven, meaningful benefits to the skin.

Each of Codex’s formulas are committed to protecting and nurturing the skin’s microbiome, and when it comes to results, you don’t have to take their word for it: every single product has been clinically tested for efficacy with published, reliable results to prove it. With transparency as a core value, Codex products also carry an ethical Cruelty-Free, Vegan and sustainable guarantee, certified to independent third-party standards. This extends to their airless renewable sugar cane packaging, designed to prevent contamination while maintaining a negative carbon footprint.

About Shaant:

The word “shaant” means calm or serene in Hindi. In Ayurveda, the action of balancing a system leads to serenity and well-being. These twin concepts of balance and connectedness echo throughout Ayurvedic texts, thought, and practice. The Codex Labs Shaant collection harnesses the power of bio-actives obtained from Indian plants long valued by Ayurvedic healers for their calming, soothing, and balancing properties. This ancient Ayurvedic knowledge has now been combined with modern biotech and genetic scientific principles, together with state-of-the-art cosmetic formulation, to create an innovative, clinically-proven line of acne-management products, each of which is manufactured at with certified sustainable principles in mind. The Shaant collection is focused on treating existing acne by reducing oiliness, deeply cleansing pores, exfoliating dead skin cells, and drying out blemishes. All Shaant products were also developed to not disrupt the microbiome.

Using cotton ball, apply on cleansed face and throat twice daily.

Avoid direct contact with eyes. Discontinue use if signs of irritation appear. Before incorporating any new product to your skincare routine, we always recommend patch-testing.
