Products, Ingredients + Formulations

Where can I find a list of product ingredients?

To see if a product contains a specific ingredient, visit a product’s page on Bioelements.com/pros, where its full ingredient list appears. In addition, you can type an ingredient name into the site search bar on the top-right corner of this site, to view products that contain it.

You can also visit our comprehensive Ingredient Glossary to learn more about individual ingredient benefits and the formulas in which they are formulated.

What is the shelf life of a Bioelements product?

While specific products can vary, in general, unopened products have a shelf life of 1-3 years when stored properly. After opened, we simply recommend that products are used as directed promptly, within one year. OTC products (like SPF) will have a specific expiration date on them and you can also call our call center (800-433-6650) and check the specific batch number of any product.

Can I use Bioelements products when pregnant or breastfeeding?

We recommend avoiding the use of formulas with retinol during pregnancy or breastfeeding. This includes Sleepwear, Oil Control Sleepwear and Age Activist Clinical Youth Serum.

For a retinol-free option, we suggest Time Sensitive. It contains backuchiol, a natural retinol alternative without potential irritation. It has a different molecular structure than retinol but a comparable effect on the skin.

Clients who are pregnant/breastfeeding should consult with a healthcare provider before using products containing resorcinol (an ingredient in the pro-use-only Stage Fight power mask – featured in the Bioelements Acne + Pore Clearing Treatment); use in moderation, only when necessary, and with a cautious approach.

All other Bioelements at-home products are safe for those who are pregnant or breastfeeding. However, as every pregnancy is different, it‘s always best to consult with your physician. Sometimes your skin can become more sensitive, more dehydrated and even experience breakouts during pregnancy, so we recommend that you treat your skin gently.

Does Bioelements test on animals?

No. Our choice to not test on animals is so important, we state it on all our retail product packaging. Because of this clear confirmation, we have opted to not pay for inclusion on any of the myriad 3rd party cruelty-free labels in the marketplace at this time.

How does Bioelements test its products?

T

Here are all the ways we test our formulas:

Dermatologist, ophthalmologist, and clinical tests for safety + efficacy
We follow strict formula quality control via stability and clinical testing to ensure effectiveness and optimum performance. Tests include RIPT, microbial challenge, pH testing, viscosity, plus visual, odor and tactile integrity. We also conduct dermatologist and ophthalmologist testing on all formulas. In addition, we rely on independent clinical in-vitro (within a controlled environment/lab), and in-vivo (human) ingredient testing. Example: the peptides blend in Age Activist Clinical Youth Serum is clinically shown to visibly and significantly reduce wrinkle appearance after 5 minutes – in-vivo testing.

Consumer perception studies
Bioelements runs consumer perception testing on specific formulas to validate and quantify a benefit (example: “98% say age spots appear less visible after 2 weeks”). These strict perception studies are run by 3rd party outside experts in beauty product testing, wherein chosen participants are given the product(s) and follow a strict at-home agenda. Participants will then complete surveys to detail what they see/experience.

Real-world efficacy testing by top estheticians
Our own team of working Bioelements estheticians across the country test formulas on themselves in their own professional environments during the R+D stage of a product, and offer invaluabl feedback on performance.

Are your products vegan?

All of our at-home/retail formulas are vegan.


PRO-USE-ONLY PRODUCTS THAT ARE NOT VEGAN:

Glycolic Detox Charcoal Peel Levels 2 & 3 (pollen)

Are your products gluten-free?


The vast majority of our formulas are gluten-free. Bioelements product ingredients are listed in full on each individual product web page on bioelements.com/pros, and on the outside of our boxes. We make the effort to identify gluten where applicable, and always advise that you check the ingredient listing in full for any individual product you are interested in.

Bioelements product ingredients are listed in full on each individual product web page on bioelements.com/pros, and on the outside of our boxes.We make the effort to call out the most common allergens on the product web page, but if you are looking for a specific allergy, we advise that you read the ingredient listing in full or check with your allergist or physician.

Are your products benzoyl peroxide free?

Yes! All of our formulas are free of problematic benzoyl peroxide.

Can young teens/tweens use Bioelements?

We create products for all skin types and skin concerns – which can vary greatly in every age group. Many tweens and teens have had success starting a daily, clinical skin care routine with Bioelements cleansers, toners and moisturizers, to navigate common skin concerns in adolescence like excess oil and breakouts. We recommend that a guardian checks our website to review the full ingredients, product benefits and usage directions for any product their child may want to use.
