Mama & Bird
Mama & Bird Skincare is an Australian made and owned skincare brand, harnessing the power of natural ingredients to create luxurious skincare solutions that bridge the gap between a woman's existing skincare routine and her evolving pre and postpartum needs, and the needs of her children.
Choosing a family skincare routine is often a minefield of conflicting information. The list of endless do’s & don’ts can be confusing and overwhelming for mothers. Mama & Bird Skincare are passionate about simplifying this unnecessarily complex decision, by offering mothers the most natural, non-toxic, results-driven skincare to support them, and their children, throughout pregnancy and into motherhood. We are dedicated to listening to mother’s skin concerns, so that we can mindfully curate multi-functional body products that are backed by science and loved by your skin.
Beginning with supporting the mother
Whilst our vision was always to create a complete mother and baby skincare collection, we intentionally began the brand creating products for the mother. All too frequently we mothers put ourselves last, our busy schedules prioritising our little people and families over our personal needs. So with that in mind we created a range of premium mother centred products to support women throughout pregnancy and postpartum. Offering a small daily dose of self-love to their busy lives.
Our commitment to ingredient integrity
Mama & Bird Skincare are committed to creating beautiful skincare products that are safe, non-toxic and created using carefully selected ingredients specific to the unique needs of pre and postnatal skincare and infant care. For two years prior to our launch, we dedicated our time to researching and developing our launch product range, working in partnership with our highly experienced skincare manufacturer to create the most optimal product formulations that deliver beyond function.
One of our main priorities when creating Mama & Bird Skincare was ensuring our formulations are safe for both mother and baby. Our products are created using only pregnancy and infant safe ingredients, and adhere to strict formulation safety guidelines.

Whilst every effort is taken on our part to create products that are incredibly gentle and irritant free, each person’s skin is different and unique, with its own sensitivity tolerances. For this reason we recommend doing a small sensitive patch test before you use any new skincare product (our brand or any other brand).
