Fabindia recently came out with its immersive personal care range – Fabessentials. Designed to create pure, sustainable and natural products, the range includes skincare, haircare, body and bath, aromatherapy and gift sets. “Skincare is becoming more natural, has more ingredient-driven innovation and far more real and affordable. The idea behind coming up with Fabessentials is to bring health and well-being into universal consciousness and make it affordable ‘luxury’ for day-day use,” says Sania Arora Jain, Managing Director, Biome Lifesciences India. “Studies have shown that exposure to hormone disrupting chemicals such as parabens, phthalates, formaldehyde etc cause irreparable damage to body,” she adds. In an interview with Life & More, Jain tells us more:

Tell us the story behind the setting up of FabEssentials.
Fabessential was formed with an endeavor to create scientifically backed personal care products made in India, that were free of endocrine disruptors and harmful ingredients. The idea was to create a range to showcase the power of natural bio-actives , by sourcing extracts from nature that catalyze one another and deliver results that benefit a person on the inside as well as outside. My ideology remains to bring health and personal well-being into universal consciousness and make it an affordable ‘luxury’ for day to day use.

What challenges did you face on the way?
No journey is without obstacles- however ahead of challenges lie unparalleled opportunities. The main challenge is there is less understanding about products amongst users on how 100s of chemicals that we use daily interact with our body. California became the first state to pass a toxic free cosmetic act that bans ingredients that have carcinogenetic, endocrine disrupting and act on decreasing fertility.

What interested you in the skincare segment, that you thought of coming up with a brand?
I have always been extremely passionate about being kind to my skin. There is doubt propagated by big industries making claims that we have nothing to worry about. In an endeavor to improve quality of life by screening the hundreds of chemicals that we use every morning before stepping out, we decided to make a toxin-free brand for personal care which is affordable and safe luxury at the same time. Luxury because we screen each and every product for levels towards a clean beauty initiative which is currently not looked at from a scientific standpoint in the beauty industry.
