Our Ingredient Standards and Transparency

A clear look at how we choose every ingredient - so you can decide what feels right for you.

Why Transparency Matters to Us

Ingredient choices are personal. Everybody's home and routine is different, and we honor that.

This is why we don’t rely on fear-based marketing or claims like “if you can’t pronounce it, it must be bad.”

Instead, we share exactly what we use and why - so you can make confident, informed decisions for yourself and your family.

All of our products, across every collection, are formulated with high-quality, safe, and compliant ingredients. What varies is the style of experience you prefer: playful color, fully natural ingredients, or a pure aromatherapy approach.

This page explains those differences clearly.

Why You See “Fragrance” on Labels (MoCRA)

Under updated FDA MoCRA regulations, all aromatic ingredients - whether they’re pure essential oils or fully natural fragrances - must be listed on the label simply as “fragrance.”

This is a legal requirement, not an indication of synthetic ingredients.

Some brands still use older terms like “natural fragrance” or “fragrance + essential oils,” but many have not yet updated their packaging to the new guidelines.

At Latika, we always follow current regulations.

So when you see “fragrance” on our ingredient panel, it can refer to:

  • 100 percent natural fragrance components
  • Essential-oil-only blends
  • Phthalate-free custom fragrances

    (depending on the collection — which we explain below)

Transparency means telling you exactly what that word means in the context of your product.

Our Ingredient Standards.

Every collection at Latika fits into one of these three categories.

All three are crafted with safety, compliance, and quality at the highest level - the difference lies in the style of scent and color you prefer.

1: Enhanced Fragrance & Color – Playful, Vibrant, Safe

This is the collection for customers who love a full-sensory, colorful experience.

Fragrance:

  • High-quality, phthalate-free custom fragrances
  • Used at low, FDA-compliant percentages
  • Designed to be enjoyable yet gentle on the skin

Colorants:

  • Lab-enhanced, cosmetic-grade colorants
  • Safe, approved for use in bath and body products
  • Used in minimal amounts (often less than 0.4 percent)
  • Allow for bright colors that rinse clean and don’t stain

Why we offer this:

Some customers want the vibrant, fun, bubbly bath — and we can deliver that safely, thoughtfully, and responsibly.

2: All-Natural Fragrance & Mineral Colorants

This is our “naturally fragrant” category, including collections formulated for Sprouts and other high-end health markets.

Fragrance:

  • Only natural aromatic components
  • Essential oils, plant essences, and natural isolates
  • No artificial fragrance ingredients

Colorants:

  • Mineral pigments like iron oxides, ultramarines, and micas
  • Carefully formulated with a touch of emulsifier for a mess-free rinse

Why we offer this:

For customers who want a scented and colored product but prefer to avoid synthetic fragrance or lab-enhanced colorants, this option delivers a beautiful result with only natural ingredients.

3: Aromatherapy – Pure Essential Oils Only

Minimalistic, grounding, and focused on the therapeutic qualities of essential oils.

Fragrance:

  • No fragrances of any kind
  • Only pure essential oils - single notes or intentional blends

Colorants:

  • Usually, no added color
  • When color appears, it's from natural clays, botanicals, or herbs

Why we offer this:

Some customers prefer the simplicity and clarity of essential-oil-only products.

This is our most minimal and nature-driven option.

Choosing What’s Right for You

Your Ingredient Comfort Guide

We don’t believe in labeling ingredients as “good” or “bad.”

Instead, we believe in giving you information, clarity, and choice.

Some people love colorful, fragrant baths. Some prefer completely natural ingredients. Some want the simplicity of pure essential oils.

All are valid - and all are supported in our product range.

No matter which collection you choose, every Latika formula is:

  • Safe
  • High-quality
  • FDA and MoCRA compliant
  • Thoughtfully designed
  • Crafted with care in our Texas facility


Our goal is to give you the transparency you need so you can choose the experience that feels best for you - confidently and without compromise.
