Origin Story
Bonny: Scottish English for pleasing; agreeable; good.
‘Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.’ -Ralph Waldo Emerson
2020: while everyone else baked banana bread, Manpreet and Andy were busy perfecting their skincare rituals. Swapping chemical-laden formulas for nature's finest, they discovered that radiant skin and a clear conscience weren't mutually exclusive – in fact, they were the perfect pairing. Plant-powered ingredients soothed and nourished their skin, and their new skincare routines aligned with their growing passion for sustainability and ethical sourcing.
But their newfound passion for clean beauty soon hit a snag. Building a routine felt like an endless scavenger hunt – the sustainable, vegan and cruelty-free products they sought were scattered across countless online stores. They dreamt of being able to find everything in a one-stop-shop that embodied their values, but such a sanctuary was proving hard to locate.
So, they took matters into their own hands. Frustration turned into fuel, sparking the idea for bonnyLeaf.
