Made from the Good Stuff
A decade of choosing better materials — TENCEL™, Tanboocel®, and food-grade silicone — so you don't have to second-guess what's touching your baby's skin.
TENCEL™ Lyocell
Naturally temperature-regulating and buttery-soft — the fabric in our sleepers, pajamas, and swaddle wraps.
Tanboocel® Viscose from Bamboo
Naturally breathable and hypoallergenic — the fabric in our muslin swaddles, quilts, and crib sheets.
LFGB Food-Grade Silicone
Safe enough to chew, tough enough for daily mealtime chaos.

Better Fabrics, By Design
| TENCEL™ Lyocell | Bamboo Viscose/Rayon | Polyester | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fibre Source | Sustainably harvested eucalyptus wood, from FSC Certified forests | Bamboo plant, but heavily chemically processed | Petroleum-based synthetic fiber |
| How It's Made | Closed-loop process — reuses 99.8% of water & solvents | Chemically intensive process, with potential environmental impact | Made from fossil fuels; non-renewable source |
| Moisture-Wicking | Keeps baby dry and comfy thanks to high moisture-wicking properties | Moderate — can retain moisture under layers | Doesn't wick moisture; can feel damp against skin |
| Durability | Strong and durable, holds shape after washing | Less durable, prone to stretching and pilling | Durable, but doesn't soften over time and can trap odor |
| Hypoallergenic | Naturally hypoallergenic, dermatologist recommended | Generally gentle, but chemical processing may leave residue | Can trigger irritation in sensitive or eczema-prone skin |
| Certifications | Certified by OEKO-TEX®, tested free from 1,000+ harmful substances | Not all bamboo viscose is certified; depends on manufacturer | Rarely certified for chemical safety |

Family First
A Note From Our Founders
Loulou Lollipop started in 2015 with twin sisters Eleanor and Angel, two teether designs, and a mission to make safer, softer essentials for the babies they loved most.
As twins ourselves, family is our reason for everything we do — and we hope what you find here helps you make many more sweet memories.
