DOES JWebb TEST ON ANIMALS?

JWebb does not test on animals, nor do we have any other parties, such as suppliers, conduct any animal testing on our behalf. JWebb uses only the highest quality ingredients which have a proven safety record and are widely used in the cosmetics industry.

 

DO JWebb PRODUCTS CONTAIN ANY ANIMAL PRODUCTS?

We are continually evaluating alternatives to animal-derived ingredients and have replaced many ingredients with vegetable derived substitutes. However, certain JWebb products may contain animal derivatives, such as lanolin. If you would like further information as to which JWebb products contain animal derivatives please contact customer care and we will provide that information.

 

DO JWebb PRODUCTS CONTAIN GLUTEN?

Many of our products do not contain ingredients derived from barley, oats, rye, spelt or wheat, which are commonly known sources of gluten. However, due to the wide range of raw materials and equipment used during the manufacturing of our products, we cannot confirm that our products are free from any traces of gluten. If you have specific questions or concerns regarding gluten, and the ingredients contained in our formulas, we recommend that you consult your physician.

 

WHY DO SOME JWebb PRODUCTS INCLUDE PARABENS?

It is important to use preservatives to prevent bacterial and fungal contamination. With the high level of natural ingredients in our formulations, the absence of preservatives would require our products to be refrigerated and would need to be used within approximately two weeks after production. Additionally, we strive to ensure our products do not present any health risk from contamination by harmful microorganisms by using preservatives such as parabens.

Parabens have been used for over 70 years and are approved by the US FDA for use in a wide variety of consumer products, including foods and beverages. Parabens provide a critical role in frontline defense for preventing disease and infection in humans by preventing fungal and bacterial contamination, and are recognized as safe by the World Health Organization as well as government agencies around the world. In the United States, the Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) expert panel (an independent body of internationally recognized medical and scientific experts in safety evaluation) has reviewed parabens and concluded that they are safe for use in cosmetic products. All our products are allergy tested and dermatologist tested.

 

WHY CAN MY JWebb MAKEUP BRUSH SHED?

Many of JWebb brushes are made from animal hair. The hair for each brush is determined in order to provide the best application possible. When natural hair is used, it is difficult to provide uniformity with regard to hair length for every strand therefore; shorter hairs may be bundled with longer strands which may cause some shedding. We take many steps to reduce excessive shedding and to provide the best product possible. An additional step that can be taken to help minimize brush shedding is to occasionally wash your brushes with a mild shampoo. Be careful not to get water in to the top of the ferrule as this can deteriorate the glue which will cause separation from the brush head and the handle. Rinse brushes until the water runs clear. Gently re-shape brushes and let them air dry laying flat.

Please note: no animals are harmed in any way while collecting the natural hair used in many of our brushes https://www.powerball-lottery.org/how-to-play.
