MANILA, Philippines—Human Nature continues to live out the concept of beauty that is constantly evolving. And that beauty goes beyond looks–it discerns and does good, to mark 15 years of celebrating beauty with a purpose.
The brand showcased its flagship beauty innovations over the years, its newest limited edition line, and its recently launched breakthrough face care products. The event was graced by a new generation of creators who embody the brand’s vision and are passionate about collaborating with authentic and purpose-driven brands.
Beyond what meets the eye
Human Nature Co-founder Camille Meloto-Rodriguez notes, “Human Nature takes pride in crafting world-class local products that are all at least 95% natural, effective, and free from harmful chemicals–allowing you to enjoy nurturing glow from head to toe. But there’s more to this glow than what meets the eye. Just as how we believe that beauty is more than skin-deep.”
Each Human Nature product centers on our core advocacies: pro-Philippines, pro-poor and pro-environment.
Its products are expertly formulated by Filipino scientists and 100% manufactured locally. Whenever possible, the brand seeks to use locally-grown ingredients no matter the cost to help local farmers thrive.
Going beyond profit, Human Nature dreams for the working poor to rise out of poverty and help create a new middle class. From day one, its rank-and-file employees receive a living wage and stable employment through our no-firing policy. Putting people first is a sound business policy because not only does it increase productivity through trained and loyal employees but it also creates a culture of empowerment and excellence.
Human Nature also vows to take care of the planet through creating natural, biodegradable product innovations that encourage users to #SwitchToGoodness for good. This commitment makes it the first brand in the Philippines with the widest range of plastic bottle-free formulations. With its sustainability initiatives, the brand reports saving 37.2 tonnes of plastic waste from ending up in oceans and landfills as of September 2023.
“15 years ago, we started with a dream of introducing the promise of beauty that is kind to the skin, local communities, and planet. Today, we are the pioneer local brand in the country to come up with a full range of natural and clean beauty and personal care innovations made by Filipinos for Filipinos. We are where we are today because of our fellow Filipinos who believe in us. So in this milestone event, it’s you whom we celebrate!” Human Nature Founder and President Anna Meloto-Wilk says.

Marking the milestone
In celebration of its 15th year milestone, Human Nature launched its thoughtfully-made limited edition design that embodies everything it believes in—the depth and diversity of the Filipina’s beauty that glows from within; and cares for others, the country, and the planet. Its design takes inspiration from the art style of Cubism, expressing women’s beauty in a multi-dimensional way through a play of elements.
