Founder and Lead Formulator, Anatomy Naturals
Our Story: A Grounded Approach to Care
Anatomy Naturals began with a simple question: what actually belongs on our skin? After years of reading ingredient labels and feeling unsure about long lists of synthetics and fillers, our founder, Kelly Green, began formulating products using botanical ingredients she could recognize and trust.
The brand’s earliest influence came from her grandmother, who believed in a straightforward, practical approach to plant-based remedies. While the science behind the formulations is modern, that grounded mindset remains at the heart of Anatomy Naturals. That perspective guided extensive research into which botanical lipids best support the skin barrier and which are most comfortably tolerated. What began as care for family quickly became something friends relied on, ultimately leading to Anatomy Naturals being named Best Handcrafted Botanical Skincare Company 2025 by LUXlife Magazine.
Our Formulation Philosophy: Science Meets Botanical Wisdom
We don’t chase trends. We focus on time-tested botanicals paired with modern formulation standards. Every product is handcrafted in small batches to ensure freshness and careful quality control.
We prioritize bio-compatible plant lipids such as jojoba, squalane, and nutrient-dense butters that work in harmony with your skin’s natural structure. The result is deep, lasting moisture that supports comfort, resilience, and visible skin health.
Our Formulation Standards: High-Performance Botanical Care
Ingredient Integrity & Bio-Compatibility - Nutrient-dense plant oils, butters and extracts are chosen for their compatibility with the skin barrier and their ability to support balance and comfort.
Anhydrous Formulation - Water-free formulas deliver concentrated botanical nourishment and are especially suited for dry and reactive skin, eliminating the need for synthetic preservatives.
Barrier Support Focus - Each formula is designed to reduce transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and reinforce the skin barrier for lasting hydration, resilience, and visible skin health.
Small-Batch Production - Strictly controlled small-batch production in our State College, Pennsylvania studio ensures freshness, potency, and careful quality oversight.
Transparent Responsible Sourcing - Raw materials are sourced from trusted U.S. suppliers selected for purity, ethical practices, and sustainability standards.

Frequently Asked Questions About Anatomy Naturals Skincare
-
What is Anatomy Naturals and who is it for? Anatomy Naturals is an award-winning botanical skincare brand based in State College, Pennsylvania. Founded by Kelly Green, we specialize in small-batch, anhydrous (water-free) formulations specifically designed for dry, sensitive, and aging skin. Our products are the ideal solution for those experiencing compromised skin barriers, rough texture, or reactivity to synthetic fragrances.
What makes your formulation standards different? We prioritize Bio-Compatible Plant Lipids - such as Jojoba, Squalane, and nutrient-dense botanical butters - that mimic the skin’s natural anatomy. By formulating without water, we eliminate the need for harsh synthetic preservatives, delivering fully active formulations that mitigate transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and provide lasting comfort. Every batch is handcrafted to ensure peak potency and freshness.
Are your products natural, vegan, and safe for sensitive skin? Yes. We use responsibly sourced, plant-based ingredients from trusted U.S. suppliers. While many of our formulas are vegan, some contain ethically sourced beeswax; we recommend checking individual product labels for specific details. We offer a wide range of unscented options for reactive skin, and when we do use scent, it is exclusively derived from pure essential oils - never artificial or "natural" fragrance chemicals.
How do I choose the right ritual and what is your return policy? We recommend starting with your primary skin goal: Barrier Repair, Daily Body Resilience, or Nutrient-Dense Face Care. For sensitive types, always begin with our unscented versions. We stand behind our craftsmanship with a 30-day return policy for orders placed directly through our site. If you need a personalized recommendation, our team is available to help you map out your ideal botanical ritual.
Has Anatomy Naturals received any professional recognition? Yes. Anatomy Naturals was named the Best Handcrafted Botanical Skincare Company 2025 by LUXlife Magazine. This award recognizes our commitment to high-performance, small-batch production and our dedication to ingredient transparency.
