Meet Shabia Walia, the woman behind Wild Earth, which believes in creating skincare products that are in sync with nature.
She describes her work as:
It’s in the wild that true beauty lies. The wild is pure, untampered and honest. At Wild Earth we believe in creating products in sync with nature. We strive to retain the goodness of ingredients in our products without tampering with their purity or simplicity. Our products are free from sulphates & parabens, cruelty free and packed with only what’s good for you and your skin.
All ‘Wild Products’ are handcrafted, natural and eco friendly. Transparency is very important to us and you will always know what ingredients go in each of our products. The only ingredient not listed is Love which is sprinkled lavishly on all our products. However, we promise you will feel that love whilst using ‘Wild Earth’ products.

Her Story
Wild Earth was born out of Shabia’s fears of what she put on her baby’s body after she became a mother. The labels scared her and the fact that she did not understand what went into the products made her uncomfortable. Being the solution driven person she is, Shabia started making soaps and lotions in her own kitchen. Soon word spread and mothers were demanding her to make the full range. Her experiments proved to be a huge hit with everyone and soon she was forced to move from her kitchen to a proper office and workshop.
Today Shabia is proud to have created a brand that provides natural quality products which young, old and babies can use without any fear of side effects of harsh chemicals. The company today sells online, thru retail, corporate gifting and also exports abroad.
Why she thinks you’ll love her work
The fact that our products are handmade, free of harmful chemicals, made by a mother, cruelty free, and that the brand is socially conscious attracts our customers to our brand and once they have tried our products, they are hooked. People love our body butter, lip balms and handmade soaps. Also our gift hampers are a huge hit!

As parents, we put a piece of our hearts out into this world and into the custody of the teachers at school and tuition and can only hope and pray that they treat them well.

When I was in Grade 10, I flunked my first preliminary examination in Mathematics. My mother was in a panic. An aunt recommended the Maths classes conducted by the Maths sir she knew personally. It was a much sought-after class, one of those classes that you signed up for when you were in the ninth grade itself back then, all those decades ago. My aunt kindly requested him to take me on in the middle of the term, despite my marks in the subject, and he did so as a favour.
Math had always been a nightmare. In retrospect, I wonder why I was always so terrified of math. I’ve concluded it is because I am a head in the cloud person and the rigor of the step by step process in math made me lose track of what needed to be done before I was halfway through. In today’s world, I would have most probably been diagnosed as attention deficit. Back then we had no such definitions, no such categorisations. Back then we were just bright sparks or dim.
Pathaan touted as SRK’s comeback has been in the news for mixed reasons. Right from the hype around SRK’s comeback and special mentions his body contours; yet I can't watch it!
The movie touted as SRK’s comeback has been in the news for mixed reasons. Right from the hype around the movie being SRK’s comeback and special mentions his body contours and even more than the female lead!
For me, it’s not about Deepika’s bikini colour or was-it-needed skin show. It’s about meaningful content that I find is missing big time. Not just this movie, but a spate of cringe-worthy narratives passed off as ‘movies’ in the recent past. I feel insulted, and not because I am a devoutly religious person or a hardcore feminist, but because I feel the content insults my intelligence.
But before everything else, I am a 90s kid who in the case of movies (and maybe more) is stuck in time as it wrapped around me then and the gamut has too hard an exterior for me to crack it open!
