Unlike most “natural” brands that use vague ingredient labels and synthetic fillers, Alchemy Elements formulates with clinical-grade, bioactive ingredients backed by scientific research. We extract our own frankincense resins in-house, use food-grade magnesium chloride, and rely on cold-pressed, plant-based actives to create skincare that actually performs.

Yes, we whenever available, and always opt for naturally derived alternatives to synthetic chemicals.

Some formulas require gentle preservation to ensure safety and shelf stability — in these cases, we only use nature-identical, ECOCERT-approved systems like radish root ferment or sodium phytate.

Refers to our proprietary extraction approach used for resin-based botanicals like frankincense. Rather than relying on simple oil infusions or steam distillation, this method begins with whole resin and uses a controlled ethanol extraction to draw out resin-soluble bioactive compounds. The solvent is then completely removed, leaving behind a dense, highly concentrated resin extract that is later integrated into oil or topical formulations.

This process allows us to work directly with the resin’s most functional components—resulting in deeper efficacy, greater consistency, and a more refined final product.

Only when necessary. Our preservative systems are plant-based, biodegradable, and safe for sensitive skin. You’ll never find parabens, phenoxyethanol, or formaldehyde donors in anything we make. For example, we use postbiotic ferment lysates and natural chelators to keep your skincare clean and stable, without compromising purity.

Yes, we use essential oils selectively and scientifically. Every essential oil in our formulas is chosen for its dermal safety, clinical function, and aromatherapeutic value, not just its scent.

You will never find filler fragrance oils or excessive essential oil loads in our skincare. We follow dermal safety guidelines and always formulate with precision. When using oils like lavender, frankincense, geranium, and chamomile at concentrations proven to benefit the skin without sensitization.

No, Alchemy Elements is 100% fragrance-free and dye-free. We never use synthetic fragrance, artificial colorants, or masking agents. What you smell or see in our products comes directly from nature. Like the golden hue of sea buckthorn fruit oil, or the calming scent of real steam-distilled lavender.

We believe your skin deserves active botanicals, not artificial perfume or hidden petrochemicals.

Yes, but always in dermal-safe, professionally calculated amounts. We never include essential oils just for scent. Every drop serves a purpose. Whether it’s lavender for inflammation, tea tree for microbial balance, or rose for skin regeneration. If your skin is extra sensitive, we also offer unscented versions of select products.

Yes, our magnesium sprays are formulated with skin compatibility in mind. Unlike conventional sprays that sting or irritate due to harsh concentrations or essential oil overload, ours use food-grade magnesium chloride blended with pure reverse osmosis water or hydrosols. The result is a powerful transdermal magnesium product that’s gentle enough for daily use.

• Magnesium Mist is a fast-absorbing spray designed for quick mineral delivery through the skin — great post-workout or before bed.
  
• Magnesium Vitality Lotion is a full-body treatment that includes magnesium chloride, aloe, calendula oil, shea butter, and plant emulsifiers. It hydrates, repairs, and nourishes while delivering the same mineral benefits in a luxurious cream base.
  

Absolutely! When it’s used correctly. We extract our frankincense resins in-house using technical lab equipment in a multi-day, multiple step process to preserve active boswellic acids like AKBA. These compounds are scientifically shown to reduce inflammation, support collagen synthesis, and calm irritated skin. We incorporate frankincense extract and essential oil in many of our top formulas; including Eternal Radiance Serum

We source globally but formulate locally. Our frankincense comes from Oman. Our oils come from trusted organic suppliers (e.g. Sibu, Mountain Rose Herbs). And all final formulation, testing, and packaging happens in Colorado, USA. Where we operate our lab and small-batch manufacturing.

Many are. However, some products contain essential oils or botanicals not recommended during pregnancy. We always list full ingredient decks and caution notes clearly on product pages. If you’re unsure, consult your healthcare provider or reach out to us directly. we’re happy to guide you!
