Products & Ingredients
My pump isn’t pumping, I just bought it, help!
Our products are made with luscious natural organic butters, and they may become thicker in the colder climates, which may affect the product pumping. To get the most out of your products, please ensure you keep your EVOHE products in a warmer environment over Winter. The best temperatures to store our products are between 15 – 30 deg. If you find the creams stop pumping, this could be the issue so all you need to do is slightly warm the container up, shake well and it will pump again. Please do not take the pump off your product as this breaks the vacuum seal and potentially contaminates the product, this is especially crucial due to the natural preservation system we use.
If you find that your pump is still not working, please fill out the form here.
My product pump has stopped pumping. What can I do?
Firstly, don’t open the product or remove the pump! Once the bottle is opened, the vacuum seal that is created is broken. This makes it increasingly difficult to prime the pump back one this has happened. Our products are naturally preserved, so it is best not to take the pump out or put anything else inside the container due to the possibility of contamination.
Sometimes during Winter and colder climates, some products can tend to firm up a little which can make pumping a little difficult. This is due to the natural butters in the formula which can solidify in colder climates. We suggest sitting your product in warm water from the tap for approx. 5-10 minutes (maybe longer). Then shake the product well and remove any firm product stuck in the pump as this will be the most likely blockage.
To help prevent this issue, EVOHE products should be stored at temperatures between 15 to 30 degrees celsius. During these colder months, try keeping your EVOHE products in a warmer area of the house (eg. lounge room, bedroom).
Please also double check that the product is not empty.
If you find that your pump is still not working, please fill out the form here.
What are the expiry of your products?
Our products must be used within 12 months of purchase. As our products are completely natural and not filled with harmful synthetic preservatives which are used to extend shelf life, we encourage EVOHE customers to keep products fresh and avoid buying in bulk quantities.
We regularly run sales so you can always find a saving on our website.
Is your skin care range certified organic?
When we source and research raw materials we don’t decide to use something because it has organic certification. We continue to do our homework and make our decisions based on many natural factors.
As a brand on a whole, we have chosen not to certify the EVOHE range, however we do use a range of organic ingredients. We indicate with an asterix (*) in the individual product listings which ingredients are organic.
We source a number of raw materials that are unavailable Certified Organic e.g Bush Flower Essences, Colloidal Silver and Tissue Salts.
For some of our ingredients we also decided to use Australian ingredients over international ones due to the desire to support Australian made and owned companies (some of which aren’t available organic). Our research also indicated that the Australian ingredients were potentially purer than the imported alternative.
All of these decisions affect the percentage of certified organic materials in our products, which affects our potential for overall Organic Certification.
Our priority at EVOHE is to produce the purest product with the best possible ingredients, based on our own research and standards using organic certification guidelines.
Are EVOHE products safe for my baby?
Yes our products are safe for babies, you can see the baby logo represented on the products which are baby-safe. However even natural ingredients can potentially cause reactions for anyone. Therefore, we recommend patch testing any products especially on infants and consulting your doctor for further advice.
Is the Titanium and Zinc Oxide in your mineral makeup bad for me?
No. The oxides in our EVOHE mineral power are ochres which are non-synthetic natural cosmetic grade versions. The minerals are also larger molecules than nano which are designed to sit on the surface of the skin. As with all our products, we always ensure that purity is met and that our minerals are 100% safe for use in a cosmetic product.
Is EVOHE safe to use during pregnancy?
EVOHE is safe to use during pregnancy, however we always recommend that you discuss any products that you use during pregnancy with your doctor.
Are your products vegan?
Yes! Our products and ingredients have the vegan tick. We do not use animal derived ingredients or ingredients which have been tested on animals. We are also 100% Palm Oil Free.
Are your products palm oil free?
Yes EVOHE is 100% Palm Oil Free. We use luxurious and sustainable alternatives to palm oil (and its by-product glycerine). Extensive research has been conducted to ensure that none of our ingredients include, promote or support the use of palm. You can read more about the Palm Oil Issue here. Plus our friends at OFIA (Orangutan Foundation International Australia) and POI (Palm Oil Investigations) have some great resources as well.
Are your products tested on animals?
Our products and their ingredients are only tested on willing participants, staff and family members. We have never and will never test on animals. We are TRULY cruelty free!
Is EVOHE 100% Natural?
Yes, EVOHE is formulated using 100% natural ingredients. We are also naturally preserved which means that there are no nasty incidental ingredients or preservatives hidden in the formula.
Are the fragrances in your products natural and safe?
Yes all our products contain only natural and non-synthetic fragrance. We use essential oils to scent our products which are not only fantastic smelling but completely safe for all skin types, including sensitive skin.
Are your products gluten free?
All products are Gluten Free except, Face & Body Exfoliate, Cleanse and Foam Wash as our surfactant is derived from Wheat.
Do EVOHE products contain nuts?
No our products are nut-free.
Why does EVOHE use Naturopathic grade herbs?
In the beginning of production, we had the option of purchasing cosmetic grade herbal extracts, however their potency was questionable and they had no smell or colour. This was one of the factors that led us to choosing Naturopathic grade herbs (for internal use) as we believe they have greater topical benefits. Cosmetic grade herbal extracts are also commonly extracted using glycerin which is a by-product of palm oil. So being 100% Palm Oil Free, this is something we made sure to steer clear of.
Do your products contain nasties?
No, EVOHE products are free of nasties including parabens, sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), alcohol, microbeads, synthetic fragrances, palm oil, petro-chemicals, sulphates, animal derivatives, harsh detergents and anything considered ‘nasty’.
Should I refrigerate EVOHE products?
We don’t recommend refrigerating EVOHE products due to the natural butters in our products We recommend keeping your EVOHE products between 15 degrees and 30 degrees celsius.
Oh no, my skin is breaking out, drier or oiler since switching to EVOHE?!
Don’t worry! Switching to natural skincare can sometimes cause skin to ‘detox’ before it balances, try and be patient with your skin as this should settle after a week or so. Breakouts and changes in skin can also be caused by hormones, diet, change in season and other external factors, but if you do continue to experience any issues, feel free to contact us at service@evohe.com.au.
If I have oily skin why would you be recommending the Omega 3.6.9? Isn’t that adding oil to my problem?
Often oily skin is due to the skin overcompensating for the lack of nourishment. By feeding the skin with Omega rich oils, your skin will balance out and reduce oiliness.
Can my husband use EVOHE products too?
Yes! EVOHE products are unisex. We designed EVOHE so that the whole family can use it. From infants to teenagers, mature skin, men and women. There’s no need to have separate products for you, your husband and the family which means that you can downsize and have less of an impact on the environment. Win win!
