Services
Handmade Natural Soap
Our handmade natural soaps use the cold process method to retain glycerin, creating moisturising bars with Australian-sourced oils and butters. Each batch incorporates botanical extracts and essential oils for skin nourishment. Products are formulated to avoid synthetic additives while maintaining cleansing effectiveness.
Specialty Face Creams
We craft targeted facial creams using natural emollients like shea butter and jojoba oil combined with gentle exfoliants such as oat kernel flour. Formulations address specific skin concerns while maintaining pH balance. All products avoid parabens and synthetic fragrances to suit sensitive skin types.
Exfoliating Body Scrubs
Our body scrubs combine cane sugar or salt crystals with carrier oils to remove dead skin cells while moisturising. Natural additives like lavender buds and peppermint essential oil provide aromatherapy benefits. The granules are designed to dissolve gradually for controlled exfoliation.
Straddie Zinc Cream
This zinc-based cream offers mineral sun protection formulated with natural oils to prevent skin dryness. It incorporates Australian botanicals like tea tree oil for antimicrobial properties. The water-resistant formula suits active beach lifestyles while avoiding nano-particle zinc.
Soapmaking Workshops
Our guided workshops provide all materials needed to create cold process soap at home. Participants receive safety training, ingredient kits, and step-by-step video tutorials. The program teaches formulation basics using online calculators and covers natural colouring techniques with mineral clays.

Ive been using the soaps for a while but recently purchased the rose water spray. ITS THE BEST!! I need a bottle for home, my purse and work. Super affordable beautiful products and I love that they are small batch/handmade locally.

Simply put, these products are excellent. I use a variety of the soaps to maintain an itch free skin after many years of suffering from psoriasis. Whilst I now use a medical injection to combat the major effects of psoriasis, the Shey butter moisturiser kept me sane for 8-10 years by reducing the scabbing and flaking then subsequent itch. No its not a cure but it definitely has a soothing and lasting effect. I'm no scientist, but the products must be natural because chemical based products give my skin hell.
