What Does ND Mean?
ND stands for Not Detected. It means the element was specifically tested for and was not found at or above the instrument's detection limit of 0.1 ppm. ND does not mean the test was skipped — it means the test was performed and nothing was found above the measurable threshold.
What Is IAS Accreditation?
The International Accreditation Service (IAS) is an independent, internationally recognized accreditation body. IAS accreditation number TL-888 confirms that METS laboratory meets the requirements of ISO/IEC 17025:2017 — the international standard for testing laboratory competence. This accreditation is publicly verifiable at iasonline.org by searching TL-888.
Sourcing Consistency
Our kohl is sourced exclusively from the same verified SFDA-registered supplier and the same trusted source — ensuring consistency in quality and mineral composition across every order.
Additional Testing In Progress
We are currently in the process of completing additional independent heavy metals testing at a US-based ISO 17025 accredited laboratory. Results will be published on this page upon completion.
We do this not because we are required to — but because our customers deserve complete transparency.
