THE FOUNDERS
The story of Vapour begins nearly 30 years ago with our artisanal cosmetics lab in New Mexico, USA.
For decades, we pushed the limits of green chemistry by pioneering healthy non-toxic cosmetics
that refuse to compromise. After years of developing and manufacturing products for other brands,
we knew the time was right to launch our own brand.
Meanwhile
in New York, ERIC SAKAS was looking for the perfect products. He spent
years
developing cosmetics alongside legendary makeup artist Kevyn
Aucoin and had worked for many
major beauty brands. His search for a
stellar line of cosmetics was frustrating. He found natural
products
that lacked performance, or performance products that contained
toxic
ingredients.
"Perfect makeup would impart the look of natural, glowing skin, while deeply nourishing the skin."
– ERIC SAKAS
THE SEARCH
Everything changed when Eric
encountered an exciting unlabeled sample of a new formula.
He fell in
love. It was not a liquid, powder or cream but a unique texture that
was lighter than air.
Compelled to find the source of this beautiful
and effective product, Eric conducted an exhaustive
search.
AT LAST
The
sample was ours, made in New Mexico, USA. Once Eric found us, he was
thrilled to learn more
about the sample he loved. Not only did it offer
excellent performance and a unique texture but it
was also made of
Certified Organic ingredients and pure mineral pigments. The two halves
of the
whole came together and VAPOUR ORGANIC BEAUTY was born.
"VAPOUR embodies the beliefs of its founders – beautiful glowing skin without the compromise."
