Here at Liht, we want to encourage our ladies (and gentlemen) to ask the tough questions, and really get down to the nitty gritty when it comes to choosing the best and safest products for yourselves!
Have a look at some of most frequently asked questions, and if we haven’t addressed your concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to us at support@lihtorganics.com– we want to hear from you!
Brand and Product Info
+ - Why Liht Organics?
Did you know? 60% of the products that we apply to our skin get absorbed into our body and, in some cases, our bloodstream! Therefore, it is every woman’s responsibility to choose wisely for herself - what you put on your skin should be safe enough to put in your mouth just like the food we eat!
With Liht, you can rest assured that our products promise the safest of formulations – made with up to 90% USDA-certified organic and FDA-approved ingredients, free of Parabens, Synthetic Chemicals, and Nanoparticles! Our products are also Vegan, Cruelty-Free, and Gluten-Free; so you can be sure there aren’t any hidden animal byproducts or harmful hidden ingredients!
+ - What does Organic mean?
We know that natural and organic makeup is made of plant-derived ingredients. However, the difference between Natural and Organic makeup is in where the ingredients are farmed!
Organic makeup is made from ingredients that are farmed in organic farms – meaning these farms are secluded (at least a 40km radius) from commercial farms and are free of any contamination from chemicals or pesticides. Organic ingredients are also not Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs).
+ - Are your products Organic?
Yes! Our organic range of products is made with up to 90% USDA-certified ingredients. Our Mineral range is also 100% natural and safe! All ingredients are listed on the label for your reference.

+ - Where are your products made?
Liht Organics is made in the USA!
+ - Are all the ingredients used listed on your label?
Yes definitely! We believe in transparency, and that every consumer has the right and responsibility to know exactly what is in the products they consume. As our products are made of natural and organic ingredients, their names are recognizable to the mass market (with the exception of a few scientific-looking names, addressed in the next question). We encourage all our consumers to read the labels, and feel free to contact us if you require more information!
+ - Does your brand do animal testing?
Absolutely not! Never! Liht believes that beauty should be cruelty-free. We are proud to be Leaping Bunny approved. A global programme, Leaping Bunny requires cruelty-free standards over and above legal requirements.
All of our own brand cosmetic products are approved under the Cruelty-Free International Leaping Bunny programme, the internationally recognized gold standard for cruelty-free products. We adhere to a fixed cut-off date policy and proactively monitor our suppliers to ensure that our products continue to adhere to the Leaping Bunny criteria. Our supplier monitoring system is also independently audited.

+ - What are nanoparticles? Do your products contain nanoparticles?
Nanoparticles are just as their name suggests! These harmful components found in commercial makeup are nano-sized particles (most common in powdered products) which are so tiny they can be absorbed into your bloodstream. When applied on a daily basis, the harmful side effects there are endless – hormone disruption, birth defects, cancer, etc.
Our products contain ZERO nanoparticles, and so they do not clog your pores and most importantly do not enter your bloodstream. That means you can wear Liht every day and be safe!
+ - Are your products safe for kids?
Yes! Our products do not contain toxic ingredients, or synthetic chemicals & fragrances. Hence, they are gentle enough to be used on the baby soft skin of children!
+ - Are your products safe for pregnant mums?
Yes! Because our products do not contain any nanoparticles, none of it gets absorbed into your bloodstream. We also do not use chemical-based compounds in our formulations so we are extremely safe for expectant mums AND their babies!
+ - I have sensitive skin but I need to wear makeup for work – will your products make my condition worse?
Not at all! In fact, it does just the opposite.
Our products are chock full of natural, nourishing ingredients that not only present a safer alternative to chemical makeup but actually heal and nourish your skin while you wear it! Below are just some of the skin-loving, organic ingredients we use:
- Aloe Barbadensis – the most nourishing among over 400 species of Aloe Vera. It also acts as a natural anti-inflammatory agent as it soothes and protects sensitive skin suffering from rosacea or acne.
- Rosemary Extract – The nutrients found in this extract protect skin cells from free radical damage and exposure to the sun. Rosemary also has antiseptic properties and serves as a natural disinfectant for your delicate skin.
- Castor Seed Oil – Where do we begin? This miracle ingredient has healing properties to soothe sun-damaged skin, inflammation, and acne, and even moisturizes to reveal younger-looking skin with its anti-aging benefits!
+ - Why does the same shade of lipstick I order differ in color sometimes?
As we use organic ingredients that are farmed in the most natural methods, slight variations may occur in terms of pigment and scent of the final product; depending on the seasons and conditions during harvest. However, we assure you these minor differences do not affect the efficacy and safety of our products!
+ - What is the shelf life of your products?
The bottles for our liquid products are made using airless pump technology to limit the contents from exposure/reaction to the surrounding environment. This means your products are less prone to contamination and will last about 2-3 years after first use. However, for hygiene reasons, we recommend that all eye products be replaced every 4-6 months after first use (i.e. mascara, liquid liner).
As we only use natural preservatives such as Coconut oil, our products have a significantly longer shelf life when left unopened (~4-5 years). However, due to the delicate composition of these products, please be reminded to keep the products out of direct sunlight or extremely warm temperatures (i.e. left in the car during the day), as this may cause cream products to melt.

You should expect to receive your refund within four weeks of giving your package to the return shipper, however, in many cases, you will receive a refund more quickly.
This time period includes the transit time for us to receive your return from the shipper (5 to 10 business days), the time it takes us to process your return once we receive it (3 to 5 business days), and the time it takes your bank to process our refund request (5 to 10 business days).
