At MendMeShop we are deeply committed to bringing to market products that are safe and effective for our customers but we are also equally committed to using natural and environmentally sustainable materials and ingredients whenever possible. As part of our commitment to bringing safe, effective products to our consumers, we continually strive to ensure that all of our products meet global regulatory and scientific standards and requirements.

Recently we re-formulated our MendMeShop Ultrasound Gel to include more natural ingredients, such as Natural Bulgarian Lavender instead of the synthesized ingredient found in other ultrasound gel. We have also removed all Parabens from the gel as we believe there is sufficient evidence to suggest that Parabens negatively impact endocrine function and are possible, if not probable, carcinogens. We have also removed unnecessary dyes
Recently there has been significant focus on other ingredients long thought safe in the food, drug, and cosmetic industries, and new evidence has emerged to suggest that some products require more thorough testing. With this mind, the MendMeShop has decided to undertake a voluntary program to remove all ingredients under scrutiny including TEA, Propylene Glycol, and DEA from our products. Most of these ingredients have been used for decades as preservatives, emollients, humectants, and regulators and in the case of Ultrasound Gel they were necessary as, up until recently, ultrasound gel was only ever used in hospitals and clinics where there is more necessity for sterility and long shelf lives. Our customers do not have these requirements so you are able to take advantage of the considerable benefits a more natural product can provide. It is a substantial undertaking to reformulate ultrasound gel without these ingredients but the MendMeShop is committed to seeing it happen. MendMeShop's Lavender infusion gel is being reformulated and any future products will meet the same standards. We hope to begin phasing in our 100% pure products in the near future.
We will continue to improve our products and formulations, always with you and your safety in mind. This is our promise to you.
