Sustainable
The fashion industry is one of the most polluting industries in the world, and it’s time we rethink the materials, processes, and packaging used to create our beloved purchases. This is why we’ve done the upfront legwork and vetted our brands to ensure that our planet’s health is top of mind for them as well.
Woman-Owned
Women lift up half of the sky - by investing in women, you’re assisting in the process of creating more wealth for families and communities. The successes of women shape the way young girls see themselves as they develop into leaders, and it's essential for the world to provide leaders that mirror half of the population.
Toxic Free
The secret behind the beauty, personal-care, and fashion industry is that they’re virtually unregulated, and therefore, allowed to use untested chemicals in their products. Exposure to these ingredients can be harmful overtime, and that’s why we’ve vetted each and every single one of these brands to ensure that they’re up to standards for those looking for a cleaner beauty routine or may be more sensitive to harsh ingredients.
Ethical
Here at ourCommonplace, all brands have our ethical stamp of approval, which encompasses decent working conditions, treatment of workers, and fair-wages. Through providing a platform for purchasing ethical goods and ensuring all brands uphold ethical standards, we hope to take us towards a more equitable and just world.
BIPOC-Owned
We believe in uplifting BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) communities by empowering their businesses. By choosing to allocate your purchasing power to BIPOC-owned businesses, you're not only strengthening local BIPOC communities — you're also contributing to shrinking the racial wealth gap, fostering job creation, and propelling diverse representation across consumer industries.

moringa bakuchi saffron bulgarian rose
Or as we call it THE ROSES 2.0, our first round of this beloved product was good, really good. RESQ potion represents the evolution of KHUS+KHUS products. As we evolve so does our ability to formulate the best skincare options for the modern person, living in a modern 21’st century world.
This exceptional product is made by hand and takes 4 weeks to complete from phase one, the herbal infusion of red and pink organic rose petals and wild rosemary into an olive-derived squalane. Turned by hand every two days, stored at the ideal temperature, This method encapsulates the complete chemical profile of the herbs, leaving behind an array of beneficial properties. In herbalism, we believe whole plant combinations are more beneficial and are absorbed into the body in a superior fashion.
“Try to conceptualize that It took 30 million years of evolution to make a single rose flower”
