Motherlove Herbal Company

Two generations of one family, whole-plant baby balms, and a B Corp conscience.

Our take

Why We Trust This Brand

One of the cleanest ownership stories on the list — two generations of the founding family own it outright, it is a certified B Corp, and there are no investors. The formulas are whole-plant and more than 96% organic.

What's inside

Ingredients & Safety

The diaper balm is literally olive oil, beeswax, and four herbs (Oregon grape root, myrrh, yarrow, calendula) — no zinc or petroleum, and cloth-diaper safe. There is no fragrance, no parabens, and no phthalates anywhere in the baby line.
