Job description

About The Company

We are a fast-growing, science-first D2C personal care brand building effective, research-backed skincare, haircare, sun care, and body care products. Our formulations are rooted in biomimetic science — designed to work in harmony with the skin and scalp's natural biology — and take a multi-functional approach, so each product delivers real, visible results rather than just marketing claims.

Our range spans hair fall control and hair growth, sun protection, pigmentation and dark spot correction, lip care, and daily skincare essentials, many of which are dermatologist-recommended and cruelty-free. With a loyal, review-driven customer base (several bestsellers have 1,000+ verified reviews) and a steady pipeline of new launches, we've built a reputation for combining ingredient transparency with genuinely effective self-care.
