FORMULATIONS & INGREDIENTS

What is the shelf life of taïla products? 

Unopened, our products have a shelf life of up to 24 months. Once opened and exposed to air, we recommend using the product within 6 to 9 months to experience the peak potency of the fresh, living phyto-nutrients. 

Why is there a change in aroma and color compared to the last time I purchased the same product? 

Because we refuse to use synthetic stabilizers or artificial colorants, our formulas mirror the natural variations of the earth. The color, texture and aroma of our cold-pressed oils and raw botanicals naturally shift depending on the specific harvest, soil conditions and rainfall of that season. This variability is proof of a truly living, unadulterated formula. 

Do you use fragrances or perfume to scent your products? 

No. We never use synthetic fragrances, chemical perfumes or masking agents. The intoxicating scents of our products are the pure, therapeutic results of our raw botanical extracts, precious woods and organic essential oils compounded together. 

Why do some products sometimes get sediment in them? Is it okay to use? 

Yes, it is completely safe and normal. Because we utilize whole-plant extracts and traditional decoction methods rather than highly processed, stripped chemical liquids, microscopic plant nutrients can naturally settle over time. Simply give your bottle a gentle shake to reintegrate the formula. 

How are your products preserved?

We use natural preservation systems to protect the absolute integrity and safety of our formulas. By combining the natural antioxidant properties of specific botanicals, vitamins and clean, plant-derived preservatives, we ensure our products remain stable, fresh and highly potent without the use of parabens or phenoxyethanol. 

SAFETY, ETHICS & SOURCING

Are your products 100% organic? 

We prioritize raw, wildcrafted and organic ingredients sourced directly from sustainable farms that honor the soil. Every formula is packed with certified organic botanicals, ensuring your skin receives the purest essence of the plant medicine without pesticide residue. 

Do your products contain ingredients made with GMOs? 

Absolutely not. Every single ingredient utilized in our private New York laboratory is strictly non-GMO, clean and sustainably harvested. 

Are your products gluten-free? 

The vast majority of our formulas are completely free of gluten-derived ingredients. However, because we blend everything in our private facility, we recommend reviewing the full ingredient list listed on each product page if you have a severe topical sensitivity. 

Can I use these products if I am pregnant or nursing? 

While our formulas are made with clean, plant-based ingredients, they do contain concentrated botanical extracts and essential oils. We always recommend showing our ingredient lists to your physician before introducing any new skincare product during pregnancy or nursing. 

Is animal testing done on taïla products? 

No. We are deeply committed to cruelty-free practices. We never test our formulas or ingredients on animals, nor do we outsource testing to third parties. 

BRAND & COMMUNITY

Are your products unisex? 

Yes. Skin health is universal. Our formulas are engineered to honor and support the living ecosystem of everyone’s skin, regardless of gender. 

How do I find out more information regarding wholesale partnerships?

We love connecting with premium boutiques, clean beauty apothecaries and luxury spas. Please reach out to our team directly at info@tailaskincare.com with your store location and details, and we will get back to you promptly. 

How do you pronounce taïla, and is it the same as talia? 

taïla is pronounced Thai-luh and is derived from the Sanskrit word for oil, the ultimate essence of nourishment in Ayurvedic philosophy. We are a distinct, independent Ayurvedic skincare brand and are completely unaffiliated with any company named "Talia."
