A Universal Skin Care Revolution
Whenever the media mention clean beauty today, it’s easy to ignore that the trend didn’t always exist. It was not always top-of-mind to examine what’s actually inside any skincare product, or to expect transparency, sustainability, and ingredient safety. Yet over sixteen years ago, long before the hashtag was around or merchandisers added “clean” sections to their space, Richard Russell – the Founder of Russell Organics, stepped up and began a skin care revolution.
This is not just a story regarding skincare. It is a story about values. About setting a higher standard when the legacy one was failing. And it is about the reason more people than ever are adopting to clean, non-toxic, truly organic skincare, and why Russell Organics remains at the center of it all.
Um... What Is Clean Beauty, All About?
Let’s clear the air. Clean beauty in not a product label. It’s a lifestyle choice. At its center, clean beauty requires supporting safe skin care formulas that refuse toxins and unnecessary synthetics. But it is also about something more meaningful. Integrity. It's about understanding that what we put on our complexion matters. What we put on our skin, goes into our body. This is important. Not just for our complexions, but for our health and the planet.
Clean beauty is anchored in:
Brand Transparency – not a thing hidden, no misleading “perfumes”, or “fragrance blends.” This involves the brand’s complete product range. All products.
Ingredient purity – formulations created without parabens, phenoxyethanol, sulfates, petrochemicals, or phthalates.
Eco-responsibility - products crafted with sustainability and biodegradability in mind. No toxins finding there way as run-off menace for the environment.
Cruelty-free standards - no animal testing, ever. No animal sourced ingredients. Ever.
Results-first mindfulness – world-class, skin-first formulations which are as amazing as they are clean.
It seems obvious now. But back in 2007, this was an unheard of idea. Russell Organics was the first to begin the trend.
The Brand That Was Clean Before Clean Was Cool
When Russell Organics launched, there was no “clean beauty” space. In fact, there wasn’t even a shared vocabulary for what that meant. Retailers, buyers, and merchandisers, had no idea of how to retail such a pioneering concept. What there was, however, were shelves full of skin care brands that were full of questionable ingredients – several of which had known connection to skin irritation, hormone disruption, or worse.
Instead of following trends, Russell Organics established a simple principle: only use ingredients that are non-toxic, effective, and sourced from botanicals whenever possible. That meant no shortcuts, no synthetic perfumes, and no compromise. Each formulation was created from scratch containing high-quality plant-based ingredients that created visible results without the toxic trade-offs.
What started as a belief quickly established a map for the future. And while other brands would jump on the clean beauty trend years later, Russell Organics was already established as the founder of the clean beauty category.
Why Clean Beauty Always Resonates
Moving forward to now, and clean beauty has become a global conversation. A real gold standard. But with success brings confusion. Many “clean” skincare brands still rely on misleading greenwashing tactics, using nature-inspired packaging or clean beauty buzzwords without truly meeting the standards of clean beauty.
It’s not qualifying to use terms such as natural, green, or eco. What matters is proof. And Russell Organics has never wavered in its commitment.

Certified Vegan
Certified Cruelty-free
