About Daughter Earth

Prasanthy Gurugubelli, an ISB and NIT Warangal alumna who had advised Fortune 500 companies on strategy, founded the Hyderabad brand in 2018 after her own struggles with sensitive, acne-prone skin. Herbs are wild-harvested sustainably through government-approved harvesters, creating income for communities in remote parts of India.
