About Us
Earthen Glow is a body care startup set to launch in the D2C space soon. We have already launched our B2B range with one of the largest and most prestigious hotel chains. Our premise is that skincare science should meet the gold standard for body care indulgence, and we have a unique blend of actives and fragrances.
The D2C brand will be launching in the next 3 to 4 months with a comprehensive range and international-quality packaging. The company is helmed by a well-renowned corporate leader and angel investor, supported by a small team of MBAs from top-tier institutes and respected advisors with decades of relevant experience.
We are a tight-knit, ambitious team building a brand from the ground up. At Earthen Glow, you will not just be another cog in the machine — you will have a front-row seat to the entire brand-building process. You will work closely with the Marketing Manager and advisors, gain firsthand exposure to D2C growth strategies, and contribute directly to product launches, brand campaigns, and scaling operations. If you are excited about beauty, branding, and building something meaningful, you will thrive here.
