At NOMAD, we take pride in our formulation practices. Every ingredient we select for our products carries a rating of 1 - 3 on the Environmental Working Groups website. Are you familiar with the EWG? The Environmental Working Group is a nonprofit, American activist group that specializes in research and advocacy in the areas of agricultural subsidies, toxic chemicals, drinking water pollutants and corporate accountability.
