At this year's Natural Products Expo West, MADE OF received the Editor’s Choice NEXTY Award in the Best New Natural Living Product category. The organic baby and household product brand is one that's setting itself apart by providing consumers with simple, vegan, gluten-free and non-GMO products that have been tested by pediatricians and dermatologists alike.
Transparency is a large focus for the brand, which prides itself on being an option for "new parents that are dissatisfied with 'natural' brands." Because of this, MADE OF's Ultimate Transparency commitment reveals each ingredient's origins, certifications and test results from an independent laboratory.
Products such as shampoo, body wash, diaper rash cream and wipes from MADE OF will soon be available as part of a direct-to-consumer model with monthly subscription options.
