When it comes to your little ones’ skin, it’s crucial to choose tried and tested skincare products that are of superior quality and most importantly, are safe to use. After all, babies are known to have delicate and sensitive skin.  

The problem with baby products is that they are used for only a brief period of time, and as with all things we consume, their disposal can be quite challenging.  

This is why we are grateful for brands that are committed to giving back to the planet by going the sustainable route. One brand that lets you take care of your babies’ and toddlers’ skin, while also taking care of the environment, is none other than Japan’s number one baby care brand – Pigeon.  

Celebrating Babies the Way They Are 

Acknowledging the fact that parents’ love is irreplaceable, Pigeon aims to embody love through its high-quality products and services, and they have extended this love to Mother Earth. Thinking ahead, Pigeon has created the Natural Botanical skincare range, which consists of sustainable baby products that help parents take care of their kids’ fragile skin, while also protecting the planet for their future.  

The Natural Botanical skincare range features products that are dermatologically tested and formulated with over 90% natural ingredients. But the brand's sustainability efforts don’t end there. All Natural Botanical bottles are made with 20% recycled materials, significantly cutting down plastic waste.  

The sustainable skincare line consists of: 

• Pigeon Natural Botanical Shampoo – A mild shampoo that nourishes your baby’s scalp and leaves their hair soft, shiny, and smooth. This PH-balanced shampoo is gentle on the eyes and contains olive oil, vitamin E, keratin, and argan oil.
• Pigeon Natural Botanical Head and Body Wash – A gentle cleanser that maintains the smoothness of your baby’s or toddler’s delicate skin. It’s made with olive oil, argan oil, and chamomile extract.
• Pigeon Natural Botanical Milky Lotion – A nourishing lotion that keeps your baby’s skin moisturized for 24 hours. It soothes dry, itchy skin with a non-greasy formula and contains a high volume of vegetable-derived glycerin to deeply hydrate. It also contains olive oil and argan oil to protect and nourish the skin with antioxidants, vitamins, and essential fatty acids.  
• Pigeon Natural Botanical Massage Oil – A lightweight and moisturizing massage oil that glides on easily and leaves a protective film on your baby’s skin. It’s made with chamomile, which is known for its calming properties, helping your child have a good night’s sleep!

All Natural Botanical products are safe for newborns as well, as they are non-toxic with no added paraben, formaldehyde, or alcohol. The baby skincare range is exclusively available at the SM Store Baby Company boutiques and selected SM department stores.

Giving Back to the Planet: Pigeon’s Recycling Project 

Aiming to create a sustainable environment for the present and future generations, Pigeon launched the first round of its Go Green recycling project, which ran from May 7 to June 30, 2022. The campaign encouraged people to collect their empty plastic bottles and containers and bring them to the allocated drop-off points. All empties received were then endorsed to a recycling center.  

The second round of the Go Green initiative is currently ongoing and will run from July 5 to 31, 2022.  

It’s hard not to love and support brands like Pigeon that are committed to giving your little ones some TLC while making a positive environmental impact. And when it comes to your baby’s skincare, only Pigeon, mothers (and fathers) know best. This is a brand worth rooting for; even Mother Earth can attest!
