Our Ingredient Standards

Our Ingredient Philosophy

We believe gentle care starts with intention.

Every ingredient we use earns its place — not because it’s popular, but because it serves a clear purpose. Our formulas are designed to support delicate skin without unnecessary complexity.

Simple, thoughtful, and evidence-led

What We Include

We choose ingredients with intention — prioritizing safety, effectiveness, and complete transparency.

  • Proven to be gentle and effective
  • Suitable for daily use on sensitive skin
  • Stable in warm, humid conditions

Every product page includes a full, exact ingredient list specific to that formulation, so you always know precisely what is going onto your baby’s skin — no hidden blends, no ambiguity.

Each formula is built around a small number of functional, skin-supporting ingredients — nothing extra, nothing unnecessary.

Across our formulations, we prioritize:

  • Coco-derived gentle surfactants – cleanse effectively without stripping or harshness
  • Aloe vera – helps soothe and hydrate delicate skin
  • Colloidal oats – support skin comfort and help reduce irritation
  • Pro-vitamin B5 (Panthenol) – conditions and supports the skin and scalp barrier

Every ingredient serves a clear purpose — selected for safety, performance, and suitability for infant skin in humid climates, in line with our formulation philosophy

What We Exclude

We intentionally avoid ingredients that may disrupt, irritate, or add unnecessary complexity to delicate baby skin.

Our formulations are built on restraint — if an ingredient doesn’t serve a clear, essential function, it doesn’t belong.

We exclude:

  • Sulfates (SLS, SLES) – can strip the skin’s natural barrier and cause dryness, especially in sensitive skin
  • Parabens – widely debated preservatives that don’t align with our long-term safety philosophy
  • Petroleum-based ingredients (mineral oil, petrolatum) – occlusive and not aligned with our plant-based, breathable formulation approach
  • Added fragrance – a common source of irritation and sensitivity in baby skincare

For ingredient safety and ratings, we reference globally recognized databases such as:

Exclusion isn’t about fear — it’s about focus.

Why Fewer Ingredients Matter

Baby skin is still developing.

Fewer ingredients mean:

  • Lower risk of irritation
  • Clearer understanding of how a formula works
  • Easier traceability and quality control

Simplicity helps us be more precise — and more responsible.

Formulated for Our Climate

South Asian weather is warm, humid, and unforgiving.

Our formulations are developed to:

  • Remain stable in heat and humidity
  • Feel comfortable on skin in high moisture conditions
  • Perform reliably in everyday routines

Climate isn’t an afterthought. It’s where formulation begins.

How We Think About Transparency

We believe parents deserve clarity — without compromising formulation integrity.

Ingredient lists are always available on product packaging and individual product pages.

Here, we focus on explaining how and why we formulate, rather than listing components out of context.

Transparency should inform, not overwhelm.

Packaging, Chosen with Care

Packaging plays a role in product safety — not just sustainability.

  • HDPE is used for our wash and lotion to support stability and daily use
  • PP is used for our balm to protect anhydrous formulations

These materials help preserve product integrity in warm climates while remaining widely recyclable.

Care, Without the Noise

Our standards are built on:

  • Intentional formulation
  • Practical choices
  • Respect for parents’ intelligence
