Primally Pure is a natural skincare company that inspires fresh perspectives on beauty through traditional practices. We believe that caring for your skin shouldn’t come at the expense of your health, and formulate products using fewer + better ingredients derived from nature for maximum purity and potency. We seek to improve the health, well-being and confidence of our community through powerful, non-toxic skincare products, life-changing clean living education and intentional human connection.
Our Founder Bethany McDaniel started Primally Pure in 2015 out of a personal desire to approach skincare from more of a holistic perspective and less of a clinical one. Having used all sorts of harsh prescription creams and pills to treat her acne as a teenager and young adult (and dealing with red, raw, irritated skin as a result), Bethany was blown away by the effects she eventually experienced after ditching the harsh chemicals and replacing them with simple + natural ingredients. Bethany’s journey inspired her to start Primally Pure (with an initial $250 order for ingredients + supplies) to help others experience the benefits of using clean products.
Although Primally Pure has grown exponentially since our launch in 2015 (an average of 175% year over year), our team still exemplifies the same level of passion and scrappiness that allowed Bethany to succeed back when she was making products in her kitchen, labeling them in her living room and shipping packages in her bedroom.
These qualities and more have enabled us to launch several new products and curate buckets of transformative clean living content over the years, all while maintaining a return rate of just over 1% and a customer retention rate of nearly 60%.

P U R E P R I N C I P L E S
- Powerful, Non-Toxic Products That Work. Everyone deserves to feel confident in the skin they’re in without compromising ingredient quality or efficacy. Our #1 goal as a company is to formulate and produce the most effective, safest and well-made natural products available.
- Life-Changing Clean Living Education. Skin health is often a direct reflection of what’s going on inside, and the products we use are only a piece of caring for your skin and self. We are passionate about creating and sharing cutting-edge health information (oftentimes unconventional/alternative in nature) to support and empower our community in lessening toxic load and living a whole, healthful life.
- Elevated design. Our brand aesthetic is of the utmost importance, and a high level of attention to detail, care, and expense goes into creating everything from our product labels to all of our content, to the design of our HQ. Surrounding ourselves with elevated design in turn elevates our creativity, productivity and output.
- Community + Connection. We strive to create a community that’s helpful, inclusive and inspiring. Being in community with others who are on the same path can be instrumental in one’s success or failure in adopting a new lifestyle practice. Our goal is to come alongside our community and offer support and encouragement every step of the way.
