Our story

What happens when parents and children join forces.

In 2024, two sets of friends - mothers Elise and Nicola, and daughters Mia and Nahla - decided to solve a problem. They invited dermatologist and fellow mum Dr Mariana Noy to join the team, ensuring every product is 100% safe for young skin and specialist-approved.

Skincare born of curiosity

A generation that wants to make thoughtful choices.

Bare la Terre was inspired by raising Gen Alpha children - a generation that is increasingly well-informed, independent and eager to choose for themselves. In the skincare aisle we faced a frustrating truth: the options were either bland baby products or adult formulations disguised in bright, childish packaging, often too harsh for delicate young skin.

The question that sparked it all came from our own daughters: “Why isn't there something fun, safe, and made just for our skin?”

The solution

A brand where families never have to compromise.

We co-create every product with two crucial voices: a leading dermatologist and parent, to ensure formulations are meticulously safe, gentle and effective for children's skin - and our children and their peers, to ensure the brand is fun, engaging and genuinely desirable for tweens themselves.

Safety & skin-appropriateness

Nature-based, supportive formulas made for young and sensitive skin - no harsh actives, acids, retinol or exfoliants. Manufactured in the UK or France to the highest safety standards.

Sensory delight & empowerment

Fun, engaging and genuinely desirable for tweens and teens - beautifully branded and textured products they actually want to reach for.

Education & habit formation

Simple, gentle routines that help children build healthy skincare habits they can run themselves.

Sustainable packaging & ingredients

Nature-led ingredients and 100% recyclable or biodegradable Vivomer™ packaging - a gentle footprint by design.
