our philosophy

The name 'Peruda' means 'love' in Tupi Guarani, an indigenous Amazonian language. It embodies our core values: thoughtful care for both people and planet.


our core values

  • amazonian wild-grown botanicals

    Our botanicals are sustainably wild-harvested from the Amazon rainforest. These ingredients, like Andiroba Oil and Copaiba Oili Resin, have been used for generations by indigenous communities and are now backed by scientific research supporting their benefits for skin recovery.

  • free from water-synthetics-perfume

    Our free-from formulations are thoughtfully designed to minimise the need for preservatives and exclude unnecessary additives. This allows us to focus on harnessing the full potency of cold-pressed botanicals, preserving their natural fatty acids and bioactive compounds for maximum skin nourishment and effectiveness.

  • organic & upcycled ingredients

    Alongside our wild-harvested Amazonian botanicals, we source certified organic ingredients from select European suppliers who share our strong environmental and social values. We also partner with innovative companies that transform food industry byproducts into potent skincare ingredients.

  • recyclable packaging

    Environmental responsibility extends to every detail of our products. Our choice of recyclable PP monomaterial packaging supports circularity - today's packaging could become tomorrow's raincoat. We continuously monitor packaging innovations to further reduce our environmental impact and improve recyclability.

  • partnership & preservation

    We partner with organisations who work directly with development cooperatives in the Amazon that practice sustainable wild-harvesting methods. This protects the region's biodiversity while supporting local economic development, ensuring environmental stewardship and economic growth strengthen each other throughout the value chain.

  • commitment & standards

    Peruda Skincare is a UEBT provisional member. We went through the UEBT membership process and requirements. We are now in the process of acquiring full membership, which involves the adoption of a 3-year work plan to further improve our ethical sourcing practices. We are also in the NATRUE approval process, the highest standard in natural and organic skincare.
