The startup is hoping to produce the first batch with the help of a crowdfunding campaign that has a financing target of 15,000 euros. The campaign will be running on the platform Startnext until the beginning of November 2021.

To make the shower gel, consumers add 200 ml of tap water to 25 g of Treu powder in the refill bottle and shake vigorously. The product is then ready for use. According to the manufacturer, all cosmetics products are creamy, foam well and are easy both to apply and rinse out. All ingredients are vegan, contain neither pollutants nor silicones and are biodegradable, the startup explains.
