Kawakawa, one of New Zealand\u2019s most cherished native plants, brings its gentle strength and soothing qualities into my handcrafted soaps. I carefully infuse kawakawa leaves in pure jojoba oil, allowing their natural goodness to slowly release and enrich the blend. This infusion is then added to my sensitive-skin soaps, offering calm and comfort to those with delicate or reactive skin. It also features in several of my luxury bars, adding a touch of botanical elegance. And of course, I haven\u2019t forgotten the wee ones \u2014 their tender skin deserves extra care, and kawakawa enhances these special soaps beautifully, making them soft, nurturing, and perfect for little ones who need that gentle touch.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve now introduced my kawakawa-infused oil into many of my soaps, each one crafted in small, thoughtful batches. From fragrance\u2011free bars for the most delicate skin, to Himalayan salt soaps, to those gorgeous, aromatic blends everyone loves \u2014 kawakawa brings a gentle richness to them all. Soon, I\u2019ll be releasing a men\u2019s range as well, including a sandalwood bar and a charcoal soap with extra exfoliation. Every batch takes up to six weeks to fully cure, allowing the oils, botanicals, and textures to develop their best qualities. It\u2019s a slow process, but absolutely worth the wait.<\/p>\n
