Kawakawa balm is a natural remedy made from the leaves of the Kawakawa plant (Macropiper excelsum), native to New Zealand. This balm is highly valued in traditional Māori medicine for its various therapeutic properties. Some of the key uses and benefits of Kawakawa balm include:

Skin Soothing: Kawakawa balm is commonly used to soothe irritated, inflamed, or sensitive skin. It is known for its anti-inflammatory properties, making it effective for conditions like eczema, psoriasis, or other skin rashes.

Healing Wounds: Due to its antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties, Kawakawa balm is often applied to minor cuts, scrapes, and burns to help speed up the healing process and reduce the risk of infection.

Relieving Dry Skin: It is often used as a moisturizer for dry or cracked skin, particularly on the hands, elbows, or feet, providing hydration and preventing further dryness.

Muscle and Joint Pain Relief: Kawakawa balm can also be used to relieve muscle aches, joint pain, and stiffness. It is often massaged into the affected area to provide relief from soreness.

Anti-bacterial and Anti-fungal: The balm has natural antibacterial and antifungal properties, which makes it useful for treating minor skin infections, athlete’s foot, and other fungal conditions.

Calming and Relaxing: The calming properties of Kawakawa make it a good choice for relieving stress and anxiety, though this benefit is typically more psychological when used in conjunction with other forms of relaxation.

Lip Care: Kawakawa balm can be used on chapped or cracked lips to help heal and protect the skin from environmental elements.

General Skin Care: Some people use it as a general all-purpose balm for skin care, especially for those with sensitive skin, as it helps maintain skin health without harsh chemicals.

To use Kawakawa balm, simply apply a small amount to the affected area and massage gently. As with any natural product, it is recommended to do a patch test first to ensure there are no allergic reactions.

    Size: 120ml x 1

    A great product bought initially as a tattoo balm which I now use mainly on dry irritated skin, but also great for many other uses, stings, cuts, grazes. Provides virtually instant relief and is long lasting too. On top of that a pleasant smell which is not overpowering or too perfumed as I find a lot of commercial products are.
