FAQ Shampoos & Conditioners

Is it normal for the shampoo to have thick clumps in it?2019-06-07T18:58:09-07:00

A: Yes, since our products contain natural ingredients, separation is normal. In particular, the natural coconut oil can separate, depending on the temperature of where the bottle was stored in your home. Simply shake the bottle to blend the shampoo, and use normally. This is perfectly normal.

Do your products contain any parabens, sulfates, phosphates?2019-06-07T19:03:21-07:00

No. Our Shampoos or Leave-In Conditioning Sprays DO NOT contain parabens, sulfates, phosphates or other harsh chemical ingredients.

Why Does the Blue Lightning formula contain Blue 1 and Red 33?2019-06-07T19:04:55-07:00

We use sodium hydroxide as a thickener.

Can the metal bottles be recycled?2019-06-07T19:14:42-07:00

Yes, they are 100% recyclable

Do you use natural ingredients?2019-06-07T19:14:53-07:00

We use natural ingredients to formulate our grooming products, along with a blend of safe and effective synthetic preservatives to prevent rancidity, bacteria, and fungi for the duration of the shelf life. However, these synthetic preservatives only represent a very small percentage of the total formulation.

Are these products ‘all natural’?2019-06-07T19:15:04-07:00

No, since we use safe and effective preservatives our formulas cannot be considered 100% natural. However, these only represent a very small percentage of the total formulation.

I’ve seen other grooming products claim they are “all natural” Why aren’t yours making that claim as well?2019-06-07T19:15:17-07:00

At Lucy Pet Products, we want to always be honest and transparent with our consumers. We use safe and effective preservatives in our formulas to ensure they remain shelf stable. If grooming products do not use safe and effective preservatives, they would become rancid, break down, and could develop microbial bacteria or other nasty things in a very short time. Some brands claim to use “natural preservatives” but after a closer look into those formulas, we have found that some brands are not being fully honest with their consumers. We have not found a single “natural preservative” that enables the product to be shelf stable after 3 months.

The safe and effective preservatives used in our formulas have antibacterial and antifungal effects, which prevent against bacteria, yeast, and fungi from forming.

We prefer to be fully honest and provide safe grooming products that will be healthy, safe and effective whenever you purchase them. While we do use a mild preservative, these only represent a very small percentage of the total formulation and are commonly used in most human skin and hair care personal products.

Can your Shampoos and Leave-In Conditioners be used on cats?2019-06-07T19:15:54-07:00

Yes, you may use any of our grooming products on cats.

Do your shampoos and conditioners expire? What is the shelf life?2019-06-07T19:16:03-07:00

Our shampoos and conditioners have a shelf life of 6 years. When properly stored and under ideal conditions, it will remain in good condition for 6 years. If the product is exposed to very cold (freezing) temperatures it may reduce the effectiveness but the product will still work. We recommend storing these products in a cool dry place.

How do I read/understand the lot code on the Shampoos & Conditioners?2019-06-07T20:36:18-07:00

Batch lot codes are an integral part of our Quality Assurance Program as well as a way of providing tracking information on our products.

Every product is assigned a batch code at production and is based upon the date a batch record is issued on that date. The batch code is represented by a six (6) characters (combination alphabetic and numeric) as follows:

1st & 2nd characters:  Numeric representing the year that the bulk is projected to be manufactured (00)

3rd character:  Alphabetic representing the month that the bulk is projected to be manufactured (A-L)

4th & 5th characters:  Numeric representing the date (of the month) that the bulk is projected to be manufactured (00-31)

6th character:  Alphabetic representing the sequence of number of batch records issued for that specific date of projected batches to be manufactured (A, B, C, etc.)
