Founded in 2002 by Jason and Annette Rubin, Belli Skincare emerged from a personal need for safety during pregnancy. When Annette was expecting, she and her husband—a physician—struggled to find skincare products that were explicitly screened for teratogens (substances that can cause birth defects). This gap in the market led Dr. Rubin to develop a rigorous safety screening process, reviewing millions of medical citations to exclude any ingredients with links to harmful effects on fetal development. This "teratology-screened" standard became the brand's defining pillar, offering peace of mind to expectant and nursing mothers.
