Product Reviews by Experts


I really loved the size, 200ml is generous and great value! The formula is thoughtfully crafted for pregnancy-safe dry skin, using gentle, natural and biodegradable ingredients. It’s a foaming gel, which surprised me for dry skin but the presence of soothing extracts like aloe, jojoba and Kakadu plum help keep it nourishing without feeling harsh. Plus, the elegant branding and elevated packaging give it a luxe feel that stands out. Biomama ticks a lot of boxes. They manufacture locally in Australia which cuts freight emissions, source all extracts and ingredients locally using green science principles and keep the ingredients 100% naturally derived and biodegradable. Their small batch approach reduces waste and maintains product integrity. Packaging is thoughtfully chosen, recyclable, locally sourced and eco-friendly. I also appreciate their commitment to inclusive imagery and supporting women holistically during and after pregnancy.


I adore the scent of this beautiful cleanser- it’s packed with potent botanical extracts and nourishing Kakadu plum oil. I love that it’s been specifically formulated for dry, hormonal skin during pregnancy and into motherhood. The glass bottle and luxurious packaging are simply divine, making the whole experience feel like a gorgeous self-care moment that honours the motherhood journey with integrity and love. Biomama walks the talk- from locally sourcing ingredients and packaging to choosing biodegradable formulations and recyclable materials, their commitment to sustainability is clear and considered. Their transparency around what is and isn’t recyclable is refreshing and their thoughtful choice to invest in durable glass packaging (with refill options planned) reflects a genuine dedication to doing better for the planet.


This is a gentle, yet effective cleansing gel. I really like that it doesn’t foam for the sake of foaming and has a soft, calming aroma. It left my face feeling soft and hydrated. I like that this brand works with other Australian brands for ingredients, manufacture and packaging. Biomama’s transparency and openness is impressive!
