Maternitique

Maternitique's mission is to help women look their best, feel their best and do their best throughout pregnancy, birth and motherhood with safety-screened products that support their health, beauty and comfort. Our goal is to help inspire happier mothers, easier births, healthier babies and a safer world. Founded in 2007, Maternitique is a small, woman-owned business operating from Portland, Oregon. Our Product Selection: Would you be shocked to learn that an average of 200 chemicals, including 180 known to cause cancer, were recently found in newborn blood?* We were. As powerful as our placentas are, they cannot filter out dangerous chemicals absorbed by our skin, breathed in our air and consumed through our food. If we want healthier, safer babies, we have to make healthier, safer choices. And we have to buy from manufacturers who create healthier, safer products. Maternitique offers you brands that avoid ingredients identified as reproductive toxins (phthalates, for example), carcinogens or teratogens (substances that cause or contribute to birth defects). We prefer manufacturers who are signers of The Campaign for Safe Cosmetics and we educate ourselves about ingredients in the Cosmetic Safety Database maintained by Environmental Working Group.
