Proudly, Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade’s baby care brand for babies with melanated skin, has expanded into retail with an exclusive Target partnership. 
 
Starting this month, the Proudly baby body and bum care line will be available at Target stores nationwide and online at Target.com. Target will carry the full line of high-quality, Proudly products, each priced at less than $20.
 
“Inspired by our daughter Kaavia, we set out to create baby care products formulated specially for babies with melanated skin,” said Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade. “Through our partnership with Target, Proudly products will now be widely available to more communities, parents and caretakers. We are so grateful to be partnering with Target who is aligned with our mission to embrace and celebrate babies of color.”

The Line

Co-designed with dermatologist Dr. Naana Boakye who studied and selected gentle, cleaner ingredients to nourish melanated skin, she focused on forgoing ingredients that strip melanated skin of its natural moisture or could trigger common skin concerns for sensitive melanated skin like eczema and acne.
 
Soft & Absorbent Diaper Boxes, Sizes newborn – 6 ($19.99): Ultra-absorbent and super soft, diapers with a secure fit, and sustainably sourced, plant-based core including shea butter moisture layer to nourish melanated skin.
 
Gentle Touch Baby Wipes, 3 resealable packs, 168-count ($8.99): Hypoallergenic, pH-balanced, and 100% FSC-certified biodegradable fiber with 96%+ water, moisturizing shea butter and soothing aloe for faces, bums, sticky hands, and more.
 
Soothing Diaper Cream ($8.99): Soothing diaper cream thoughtfully formulated with gentle 14% non-nano zinc oxide to prevent and treat rashes with added premium, natural oils for soothing moisture.
 
Gentle Baby Wash – Lavender Chamomile ($8.99): A pH-balanced cleanser that won’t strip skin of its natural moisture, with soothing aloe and nourishing jojoba oil, and lightly scented with a natural, gentle fragrance that creates a calming environment.
 
Hydrating Baby Lotion – Lavender Chamomile ($8.99): A moisturizing, everyday lotion that is lightweight, non-greasy, and lightly scented with a natural, gentle fragrance that creates a calming environment.
Nourishing Oil ($11.99): A replenishing, non-greasy body and hair oil with a blend of five premium, natural oils to rejuvenate dry skin and give baby a touchable glow.
 
All Over Balm ($6.99): A beloved product for its rich mango butter and jojoba oil providing targeted moisture for stubborn dry spots, irritated skin.
 
Calming Spray – Lavender Chamomile ($5.99): A room and linen spray with a natural, gentle scent that sets a calming mood. Gentle enough for skin, infused with hydrating coconut water and soothing calendula.
 
“At Proudly, we are focused on creating high-quality, affordable baby care products specially formulated to meet the needs of babies and children of color who are more prone to skin concerns like general dryness, eczema, cradle cap and acne,” said Pam Cholankeril, president of Proudly. “Our children should know they are an inspiration and should feel loved and empowered. We are not just a brand made for us, we are a brand made by people of color. I’m thankful for our partnership with Target and their commitment to making a diversely-run brand like Proudly more accessible to our consumers.”
