“Children deserve to be
protected and nurtured, without compromising their health”

About Bebon
Bebon is on a mission to clean our kids’ future.
Hey there, purposeful parents! We’re Leslie and Francois-Xavier, the faces behind the brand. Born and raised in France, we moved to the US in 2015.
We’re excited to tell you more about Bebon and what’s driving us to build the cleanest, most sustainable babycare brand in the world.
Core "Why"
Our company’s name honors our French roots and celebrates our new life here in the US.
Bon is French for “good,” so Bebon simply means “be good.” It’s at the core of everything we do!
Bebon - Be good
Good for our health
Good for our kids
Good for the planet
Babycare, as it should be
I’ve struggled all my life with allergies and skin issues. The personal care products I was using triggered a hormonal imbalance, and the toxins in food triggered an autoimmune gut disease that made my skin issues and rashes worse.
When we came to the US, it got even worse. It was nearly impossible to find skincare and body care products without any harmful ingredients - even those made for children. They were all packed with toxic synthetic chemicals: irritants, allergens, endocrine disruptors, and even carcinogens.
As a pediatric osteopath, I know that the skin is the body’s first line of defense against toxins, but babies’ skin is thinner and more sensitive than ours. That makes them especially vulnerable to health problems stemming from chemical exposure.
When we decided to have kids, we worried about what products we would be able to use for them. Nothing was good enough...so we created what we were looking for: safe, efficient, nontoxic skincare for children and babies!
At Bebon, we’re proud to offer skincare and accessories that are stunningly safe and clean, exactly as they should be.

As a Mom, you deserve the truth
“It’s your right to know exactly how your children’s products are sourced, made, and packaged.”
Francois-Xavier Durand
Director of Procurement & Partner at Natural Sourcing International
I’ve been in the organic and natural ingredient sourcing world for over 10 years, building supply chains and developing products for some of the top names in consumer goods like Nestle, Pepsi, Mondelez, Unilever, and L’Oreal.
Gaining a behind-the-scenes look at how products are made, I was constantly frustrated by the widespread lies and greenwashing. Didn’t people deserve to know the truth? Couldn’t we create products that didn’t just claim to be good, but actually were good?
Partnering in an organic food startup, I’ve travelled to more than 30 countries to source the healthiest, most sustainable ingredients. But it wasn’t enough - I wanted to do the same for the children’s skincare industry.
At Bebon, we’re committed to creating a brand with nothing to hide. We want you to feel great about the impact you’re making!
Francois-Xavier
We’ve worked hard to develop products you can feel great about for your family. Here’s a bit about what makes us different!
100% Safe + Nontoxic
The US bans just 12 chemicals from children’s skincare. The EU does a bit better, at 1376. But for us, that wasn’t good enough!
We go beyond, banning over 2000 harmful chemicals from all our products. Because your child deserves products made with real, natural ingredients - nothing artificial, and nothing that could harm them.

We believe moms have a right to know exactly what’s in their children’s products! That’s why we’re committed to full transparency, from source to skin.
We’re proud of our ingredients, our formulas, our processes, and our final products. Have questions? Ask away - we have nothing to hide!
Packaged Without Plastic
Planet Earth has a serious waste problem. And shockingly, 91% of all plastic in the US is never recycled! That’s why we package all Bebon products in our innovative, plastic-free packaging.
