Kelly Teegarden, the owner of KTO Cosmetic Lab is a stage III Thyroid Cancer Survivor who with her team passionately formulates cutting edge Natural & Organic Skincare, Natural and Organic Color Cosmetics, Natural and Organic Deodorant & Natural and Organic Hair Care with their own strict KTO Compliance.

The KTO Compliance means they formulate without known cancer causing or endocrine disrupting ingredients, or use any banned ingredient from any country in the world.

KTO uses the highest grade effective natural and organic ingredients from around the world. At times they may use a synthetic but only if it passes Kelly's KTO Compliance.

"I cannot knowingly use harmful ingredients after everything that I have been through since 60% of everything that goes on your skin goes into your bloodstream in 30 seconds," states Teegarden.

Kelly's passion is to Make a Difference in the World with her very own strict compliance. She did this because she had no idea that the majority of all of the cosmetics that she used before she was diagnosed were laden with cancer causing & endocrine disrupting ingredients. It wasn't until she discovered that there is no regulation in this industry that she decided to regulate on her own. She is a pioneer in the Cosmetic Manufacturing Industry.
