General
-
Three Ships is a natural skincare brand working to turn our high standards into the industry standard. With simply transformative, pristinely clean formulas backed by clinical results and radical transparency, you know exactly what’s going on your skin — and you know that it’s the best.
Uncensorship. Leadership. Partnership.
That’s what you’ll find with us.
-
There is actually no legal standard when it comes to ‘natural’ skincare. So we’ve decided to set our own.
At Three Ships, our definition of natural is simple: every product must be made entirely of ingredients sourced from nature—plants, minerals, or microbes. Even the ingredients of our ingredients must be fully naturally derived.
-
At Three Ships, we’re working to make ‘natural’ mean something. What are we doing differently?
When we say natural, we mean it. We only use plant-derived or mineral-based ingredients.
All of our ingredients have a full-time job. We hand-pick each of our actives based on their clinically-proven results.
We go the extra mile to vet our ingredients—even the ingredients of our ingredients—through rigorous research and documentation.
-
We never have and never will test on animals! We also obtain a cruelty-free statement from all of our ingredient suppliers.
Three Ships is certified cruelty-free by the Leaping Bunny Program.
-
Three Ships is available in stores across Canada and the US such as Whole Foods, The Detox Market, Credo Beauty, Hudson’s Bay, Chapters Indigo, and many more.

Products
-
When an item is out of stock, there will be a prompt on the product’s page "Notify Me When Available" where the Add To Cart button would usually be. Enter your email address and you will then receive a notification when the product is restocked.
-
All Three Ships products have a shelf life of 24-36 months from the date of manufacturing. Look for the jar symbol on your product packaging to know exactly how long it will be good for after opening.
Most of our products will be safe to use for 6-12 months with the exception of our eye masks which have an expiry of 3 months after opening. We recommend writing the date you opened the product on the jar or bottle to keep track!
-
Since our products are made with 100% natural oils and ingredients, keep all products at room temperature and away from direct sunlight. Keeping products in the fridge can provide a cooling and refreshing sensation to your application (especially with our Eye Masks!), however, it will not extend their shelf life.
We also recommend ensuring that all products are kept away from children and infants.
-

-
Our products aren't tested for use on babies, so we don't recommend them for infants. Consult with a pediatrician for suitable baby care options.
-
We always recommend a gentle, minimal routine approach for pre-teens building their first skincare regimen! A cleanser, moisturizer, and SPF is the perfect routine to get started.
Start by choosing a cleanser: Purify for normal skin, Harmony for sensitive skin, and Refresh for oily and acne-prone skin types. Round out the routine with Radiance for a healthy, moisturized glow!
We don’t have an SPF (yet!), but check out one of our retailers for other clean beauty options.
-
We would recommend Awake, Boost, Radiance, and Firm Believer for those with mature skin. Feel free to take our Skin Quiz or reach out to our Skin Concierge, or book a Navigate Natural Consultation if you want more personalized recommendations.
-
To find specific products for your skin type, you can either shop by skin type under our shop section, or check out our skin quiz on our website or book a Navigate Natural Consultation. If you still have questions, send us a message to hello@threeshipsbeauty.com so we can help you find your perfect routine!
-
On average, our serums last 2-6 months, creams around 2-3 months, and cleansers 3-4 months . Our minis generally last 2 weeks with daily usage. Naturally, these estimates may vary depending on your daily dosage!
-
The pH of our products ranges between 4.5-7.0. If you would like to know the pH for a specific product, please email us at hello@threeshipsbeauty.com!
-
Our cream jars are filled precisely to the weight listed on the packaging. To ensure that the product doesn't overflow when closed, the jars must have a small amount of headspace for the pump to be screwed in! Once you start to pump, the mechanism will push the cream up towards the dispenser.

Ingredients
-
Yes! All of our products meet the highest quality in avoiding certain additives. Our reasons to not include these ingredients range from not being suitable for those with sensitive skin to not safe for infants. While our products aren’t made for babies, we want new moms to feel comfortable with buying our products.
The skincare industry has come a long way; there are so many innovative ingredients and substances that are naturally derived that we use in place of parabens, sulfates, phthalates and synthetic fragrance.
-
All of our products are free from synthetic fragrances however, we use very limited amounts of essential oils in our products.
Since all of our ingredients are 100% natural, the raw formula can often smell unpleasant. By using less than 0.8% concentrations of essential oils, we are able to create an enjoyable skincare experience without any effects on your skin.
Please reach out to our Skin Concierge if you have a specific question on our use of essential oils.
-
All of our products, with the exception of Superfruit containing Barley Extract, are formulated without gluten-containing ingredients! However, they are produced on lines where gluten-containing products are also handled. As a result, we're unable to guarantee that our products are 100% gluten-free.
-
No, a number of our products are made from soy. If you have a soy allergy, we recommend that you do not use our products as we cannot guarantee any one product is 100% soy free.
-
Unfortunately, we are not able to guarantee that any Three Ships Product is 100% nut free.
-
At the moment, we do not have any products that contain SPF.
-
Traditional retinol is a Vitamin A derivative whereas, bio-retinols are plant chemicals that are not Vitamin A derivatives, but works in a similar mechanism and have the same benefits to the skin cells as a traditional retinol would. Due to bio-retinols being plant derived, it is not nearly as harsh on the skin as regular retinol!
-
None of our ingredients are derived from animals or animal by products so they are vegan friendly!

-
This error message shows when our system detects a self-referral. For example, if you've already signed up for an account under the email test1@gmail.com, but visit the page again and attempt to claim another reward using another email address test2@gmail.com, we will block the referral since it's considered a self-referral and an abuse of the referral rewards program. Our app also tracks the IP addresses of customers to reinforce this. So if the customer sent the referral to someone who is in the same location and/or is using the same network, this would be flagged as a self-referral because the referrer and the referee would most likely have the same IP address.
-
If you return an item for a refund, your points for the specific item(s) only will automatically be removed as if the product(s) was never ordered.
