    Mamaearth unveils new mosquito repellent campaign with Shilpa Shetty

    MUMBAI: Mamaearth, has launched a new campaign for its mosquito repellents, featuring cinema actress and brand ambassador Shilpa Shetty Kundra. The campaign underscores the importance of natural, toxin-free protection for children against mosquitoes, a major concern for parents.

    The campaign film, conceptualised by Steve Priya, captures a touching moment between a mother and child, portraying the everyday struggle of safeguarding little ones from mosquito bites. Showcasing Mamaearth’s mosquito repellent range, enriched with citronella oil, eucalyptus oil, and peppermint oil, the film highlights its 12-hour protection—a must-have for parents prioritising their child’s well-being.

    Shilpa, sharing her thoughts on the campaign, said, “As a mother, my children’s well-being is always my biggest priority. I have always been cautious about the products I use, ensuring they are free from harmful chemicals and completely safe. Mosquito bites are a constant worry, and it’s reassuring to have a natural, toxin-free solution like Mamaearth’s mosquito repellents. This campaign is close to my heart because it empowers parents with a safe and effective way to protect their little ones while allowing them to explore the world worry-free.”

    Honasa Consumer Ltd. EVP & chief marketing officer Anuja Mishra, added, “At Mamaearth, we recognise that mosquito protection is a major concern for parents, as it directly impacts their child’s health and well-being. With our mosquito repellent patches, we are not just offering a product but solving a larger problem by providing parents with a quick, easy, safe, and effective solution they can trust. Formulated with natural ingredients, our repellents ensure long-lasting protection while being gentle on delicate skin. Through this campaign, we aim to reinforce our commitment to baby-safe care by not only offering toxin-free products but also raising awareness about the importance of choosing natural solutions. Partnering with Shilpa, a mother who shares our philosophy, allows us to authentically connect with parents and empower them with a reliable way to protect their little ones.”

    Steve Priya chief creative officer Priya Pardiwalla commented, “Every evening, parents witness a familiar scene – children by the door, shoes on, eyes sparkling, hearts racing to run out and play. But outside, something else is waiting too. Mosquitoes. This quiet tug-of-war between joy and worry sparked the heart of our film. Because no parent should have to choose between protection and peace of mind. With Mamaearth mosquito repellents, parents have a way to guard playtime with 12-hour protection, made from nature, free from toxins. So children don’t have to wait to be children. Not even for a moment.”

  • Mamaearth and Swiggy Instamart unite to #GoGreen this World Environment Day

    Mamaearth and Swiggy Instamart unite to #GoGreen this World Environment Day

    Mumbai: Mamaearth, a brand for toxin-free and natural personal care products, is thrilled to announce its partnership with Swiggy Instamart for a special sampling activity in Delhi NCR in observance of World Environment Day.

    Through this initiative, Mamaearth will include complimentary seed samples with close to 30,000 orders delivered through Swiggy Instamart on World Environment Day. This joint effort represents more than just a campaign; it stands as a testament to both brands’ commitment to environmental stewardship and sustainability. The brand believes in the power of small yet impactful actions, aiming to inspire new age consumers to begin their sustainability journey right from the comfort of their homes. Ultimately, it envisions a future where every home nurtures a thriving garden, every individual embraces an eco-conscious and sustainable lifestyle, and together, we co-create a world where harmony between humanity and nature prevails. Mamaearth chose to collaborate with Swiggy Instamart to leverage their extensive reach and engage a wide audience, promoting sustainability and eco-conscious living on a larger scale.

    The brand believes that goodness starts with the small choices we make every day, and this reflects in the choices the brand has made with its products and initiative like plant goodness where every order made on the website results in a tree being planted on behalf of the consumer. This initiative aims to promote afforestation, support farmer livelihoods, and foster sustainable coexistence with nature. The brand has been on a constant endeavour to serve consumers and society and make the world a better place.

    Honasa Consumer Ltd EVP and CMO Anuja Mishra commented, “At Mamaearth, we believe in the power of doing good to drive meaningful change. Through our partnership with Swiggy Instamart on World Environment Day, we are excited to engage with our consumers and encourage them to join us in our mission to plant goodness and make a difference for the planet. Beyond the immediate act of planting seeds, we aspire to ignite a sense of empowerment that these small activities can create for the collective good.”

    Talking about the initiative, Swiggy Instamart VP – category, growth & revenue Anirban Roy said- “We are excited to partner with Mamaearth on this meaningful initiative for World Environment Day. By including complimentary seed samples with 30,000 orders through Swiggy Instamart, we aim to inspire our consumers to take small but impactful steps towards sustainability. This collaboration not only highlights our shared commitment to environmental stewardship but also empowers our customers to contribute to a greener future right from their homes. Together, we believe we can make a significant difference in promoting eco-conscious lifestyles and nurturing a more sustainable planet.”

    The brand launched the plant goodness initiative with an ambition to plant 1M trees by 2025 and has already planted six lakh trees. In collaboration with an NGO and farmers for agroforestry, these trees have been planted in farmlands across Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and Haryana. The saplings planted are fruit- bearing trees that help farmers increase income opportunities with the produce from these trees. The agroforestry approach doesn’t use the entire agricultural land, and the farmers continue to do their farming along with creating an orchard. This helps in creating carbon sinks in agricultural fields, thus moving towards the target of ‘Net Zero Carbon’. The brand has also created positive environmental changes, including the sequestration of 250,000 tons of carbon and the production of 500,000 tons of oxygen each year, while greening 3,500 acres of land.

  • Mamaearth launches campaign celebrating timeless maternal wisdom

    Mamaearth launches campaign celebrating timeless maternal wisdom

    Mumbai: Mamaearth, a brand for toxin-free and natural personal care products, has launched its latest campaign celebrating the timeless wisdom of mothers and the profound impact they have on shaping their children’s lives.

    Titled “Maa Paas Nahi, Toh Mamaearth Hi Sahi,” the campaign is a heartfelt tribute to the enduring love, guidance, and support that mothers offer, inspiring Mamaearth to create products rooted in the wisdom of traditional remedies and grandmothers ‘nuskha’.

    The campaign captures the essence of maternal love and care while viewers are drawn deeply into the personal story of a new mom facing life’s challenges without the physical presence of her mother. The film introduces us to a new mom struggling to soothe her crying baby, desperately missing the comforting advice and ‘nuskha’ her own mother used to offer. Through a video call, she expresses her feelings of helplessness until she discovers Mamaearth’s Easy Tummy Roll-On, a gentle reminder of her mother’s love and care. It’s a powerful moment of realization that even when her mom isn’t there, Mamaearth’s products bring a sense of comfort and familiarity.

    Sharing her thoughts on the campaign, Honasa Consumer Ltd EVP and chief marketing officer Anuja Mishra said, “For Mama earth, this campaign is not just a message but a reflection of our beginnings — a journey sparked by the timeless wisdom and nurturing love of a mother. We understand that there may be times when you may need to be away from your mom, yet still seek her advice. No one can substitute a mother, but as a brand, our endeavour is to bring Maa’s age-old beauty and care secrets

    to you. From traditional remedies to modern-day practices, mothers have always stood as pillars of family well-being, passing down invaluable wisdom through the ages. Drawing inspiration from this deep-rooted understanding, our campaign celebrates the enduring legacy of motherhood and honours the unique journey of each mother who has nurtured, protected, and empowered her children, even from afar. This campaign not only underscores our commitment to innovation and responsiveness to evolving consumer needs but also reflects our dedication to harnessing the inherent power of nature to create safe and effective products for new mothers and their families.”

    Havas Worldwide India chief creative officer Anupama Ramaswamy commented, “Mother knows best. She knows the unsaid things and what’s best for her child. It’s in her pearls of wisdom drawn from age-old traditions. And yet, she will not forever be around. And that’s when you miss her and her small nuskhe the most that made life so easy. We are proud to bring these nuskhe to life in easy-to-use ways, making it feel like maa is always near you. With this, we crafted two heartwarming stories of a struggling new mom and a fresh out-of-home teenager, each looking to their mothers for help and how the mother already knew what’s best for them.”

    The campaign showcases Mamaearth Easy Tummy Roll-On in the film which resonates deeply with the theme of maternal care. The Roll-On is a soothing remedy for babies digestive discomfort, echoing the traditional practice of using hing-infused water to ease stomach troubles, colic or gas discomfort.

    This 83-second ad film was conceptualised by Havas Worldwide India, and the brand plans to launch another film under the ‘Maa Paas Nahi, Toh Mamaearth Hi Sahi’ campaign.

  • Mamaearth set to disrupt personal wash with innovative moisturising lotion soaps

    Mamaearth set to disrupt personal wash with innovative moisturising lotion soaps

    Mumbai: Mamaearth, India’s leading brand for toxin-free and natural personal care products, is thrilled to announce its entry into the personal wash category. The brand’s expansion into this segment marks a significant milestone in its mission to provide safe, effective, and toxin-free goodness for consumers across the country.

    The personal care industry has seen rampant advancements with extensive research and development over the years. However, one of the biggest categories of personal care being personal wash has seen relatively stagnant innovation in recent years. The market continues to be dominated by products containing chemicals and synthetic ingredients falling majorly under grade 2 & 3 segments, with very limited Grade 1 options.

    With a growing demand for natural and sustainable personal care products, Mamaearth’s decided to venture into the personal wash category. Innovation has been at the forefront for Mamaearth and the brand took the challenge to disrupt the market with an innovation within the personal wash category. Mamaearth moisturising lotion soaps are Grade 1 soaps with Made-Safe certification in a non-drying formula.

    Mamaearth’s signature blend of natural ingredients, free from harmful chemicals and toxins, the new range of moisturizing lotion soaps are a perfect amalgamation of deep cleansing along with the power of a moisturising lotion. Available in four variants – Ubtan, Vitamin C, Multani Mitti and Neem, the personal wash category includes a variety of soaps tailored to different skin types and preferences, ensuring that there is something for everyone. From deeply cleansing foams to nourishing body lotion, each soap is thoughtfully crafted to deliver a refreshing and rejuvenating experience while prioritizing the well-being of both consumers and the planet.

    Commenting on this innovation, Honasa Consumer Ltd co-founder and chief innovation officer Ghazal Alagh said: “The lack of innovation in the personal wash category has been a challenge for the category particularly given the constant demand for natural, eco-friendly, and safer alternatives, without compromising on the efficacy. This presented an interesting challenge for us, and we began our quest to solve this problem. With the launch of our lotion soaps, we are solving the need for a soap that deeply cleanses and does not dry the skin, instead provides moisturization as well. At Mamaearth, we are committed to offering safe and toxin-free alternatives, and with the entry into the personal wash category, we will continue working on innovative formats to disrupt this category and provide consumers with a wider selection of toxin-free and safe options for their daily hygiene routine.”

    In addition to its commitment to product quality and safety, Mamaearth continues to uphold its values of sustainability and social responsibility. The brand’s personal wash products are packaged in recyclable materials, further reducing its environmental footprint, and contributing to a cleaner, greener future.

    The new range of Mamaearth personal wash products is now available for purchase online and at select retail outlets across India.

  • Mamaearth’s campaign celebrates womanhood and Durga Maa

    Mamaearth’s campaign celebrates womanhood and Durga Maa

    Mumbai: Mamaearth, from Honasa Consumer Ltd and the fastest growing BPC brand in India to reach an annual revenue of ₹10 billion (in the preceding 12 months) within six years of launch (as of September 30, 2022) launches a captivating campaign that pays homage to Durga Maa and her various forms, while celebrating the multifaceted spirit of womanhood with its exquisite range of makeup offerings.

    The heart of this campaign is a soul-stirring film that serves as a heartfelt ode to Durga Maa and to women everywhere. This initiative’s core objective is to embrace and celebrate the diversity of womanhood in all its splendid forms. Mamaearth has collaborated with accomplished artists to reimagine various avatars of Maa Durga using Mamaearth makeup products.

    The film begins with a mesmerizing montage of Durga Maa’s portraits, each capturing the essence of her nine divine avatars. It then seamlessly transitions into the hands of skilled artists crafting magnificent Durga sketches and paintings using Mamaearth’s versatile makeup range which includes lipsticks, Foundations, Concealer, Compact, Lip & Eye Tint, Kajal, Kohl, & Eye liner. Eastern India’s Durga Pujo serves as a powerful platform for these artists to showcase their creativity and devotion. These artworks beautifully represent the nine facets of womanhood: Strength, Devotion, Knowledge, Fierceness, Empathy, Fearlessness, Wisdom, and Success. Through this film, Mamaearth wishes to celebrate women and their virtues and reaffirm that every woman is an embodiment of the diverse avatars of Maa Durga.

    Commenting on the same, Honasa Consumer Ltd chief marketing officer Anuja Mishra commented: “In the spirit of Durga Puja and the celebration of womanhood, Mamaearth’s new campaign is a heartfelt tribute to both Durga Maa and women everywhere. We’ve taken an innovative path by collaborating with

    artists who have beautifully reimagined Maa Durga’s avatars using the vibrant colors from Mamaearth’s makeup range. This initiative is our way of embracing and celebrating the diverse facets of womanhood. Just like the nine divine avatars of ‘Nobodurga,’ every woman embodies strength, devotion, knowledge, fierceness, empathy, fearlessness, wisdom, and success. Through this film, we pay homage to the eternal muse of Durga Maa and the inspiring women who carry her spirit within them.”

    Comments from Havas Creative chief creative officer Anupama Ramaswamy, “As Pujo season approaches, the vibrant spirit of Durga Ma showcases the artistic creations of numerous talents. It’s a time when women of all generations grace the pandals in their finest attire, radiating confidence and charisma. Naturally, when we envisioned a Durga Puja campaign for Mamaearth, their Makeup Range seemed like the perfect match. We needed something disruptive and that’s how we thought of bringing 4 artists on board to do what they do best. Bring the 9 forms of Durga on their canvases. Everything remains the same. The only twist — there are no paints used at all, only Mamaearth lipsticks, kajals and foundations. The campaign draws parallels between how artists use Paints as Shringar to bring out the avatars of Durga and how women use Makeup as Shringar to bring out their own avatars. In doing so, we celebrate what Durga Ma truly represents — the multifacetedness of being a woman.”

    The 54-sec film is conceptualised by Havas Media worldwide.
