Our Story
A mother’s search for gentle relief
When Jyo Carruthers became a mom, her son’s infant eczema turned everyday care into a careful ritual. Off-the-shelf products were either packed with unnecessary additives or didn’t feel gentle enough for his delicate skin. So Jyo did what she knows best: she went back to the lab and back to her roots.
Meet the Founder: Jyo Carruthers
Born in India, Jyo was surrounded by natural healing methods from a young age. She earned a bachelors degree in biotechnology and a master’s degree in organic chemistry, then honed her craft in the lab.
With her experience, Jyo combined time-honored botanical wisdom with rigorous formulation science to craft the cleanest, most effective care she could make for her own child. Those first small batches - simple, soothing, and transparently made - became the foundation of Nature Lane.
Jyo believes good skincare for little ones starts with restraint: choose the right ingredients, use only what’s needed, and honor the science behind how skin heals itself. Nature Lane is her way of sharing that philosophy… born from a mother’s heart and a chemist’s hands.
Science you can trust, simplicity you can feel
Nature Lane exists at the intersection of chemistry and care. Jyo’s background in organic chemistry guides every decision, from selecting high-quality organic oils and gentle surfactants to minimizing unnecessary ingredients. Fewer inputs, intentional choices, and careful testing, so each formula does exactly what it should, without what it shouldn’t.
From India to your nursery
Jyo grew up around ingredients that families have relied on for generations: gotu kola (centella), calendula, coconut, sunflower, safflower, and more. At Nature Lane, that botanical heritage meets modern safety standards and meticulous sourcing. The result: products that are comforting in spirit and clear on the label.
What “clean” means to us
- Short, readable ingredient lists crafted for sensitive and eczema-prone skin.
- Organic first: we prioritize certified-organic ingredients wherever possible.
- No synthetic fragrance and no common irritants, because gentleness isn’t optional.
- Transparent sourcing & manufacturing with rigorous quality checks.
- Family tested: if we wouldn’t use it on our own kids, it doesn’t make the cut.
Our promise
We make products we’re proud to put on our own children: safe, effective, and thoughtfully simple. Nature Lane won’t chase trends or add fillers to hit a marketing claim. We’ll keep doing the quiet work: refining, testing, and improving so you can care with confidence.
💚 From our family to yours
Thank you for trusting Nature Lane with your most important daily ritual. We’re honored to walk this path with you, one gentle, effective formula at a time.
