Our handcrafted Nurture Kawakawa Balm - New Zealand made and 100% natural. This versatile healing balm utilises the benefits of kawakawa and mānuka to soothe burns, cuts, itchy bites, grazes, boils, rashes, and dry, flakey, or inflamed skin. For anyone looking for sandfly bites relief, or dealing with mosquito bites in nz, this is the product for you. The natural pellitorine in kawakawa has a gentle numbing effect, which makes it a great plant to help calm itchy bites and rashes. A must-have for the family first aid kit.
Oriwa Naturals Nurture Kawakawa Balm has the added benefits of mānuka and carrot seed essential oils, making it an excellent deep moisturiser. It's a brilliant hand cream for anyone who washes their hands a lot (nurses, painters, farmers) and has very dry skin, especially building up around the cuticles. And it does wonders for dry, cracked heels in the summer. You can also use kawakawa balm as a healing salve for eczema, dermatitis and psoriasis, and it makes an excellent natural tattoo balm.

Thanks for your great product and quick service
You're very welcome! April
Has stopped my husband's itching, something the cream from the doctor couldn't do.
Thank you for the review, Liz! We're so glad our product has been helpful for your husband. Kawakawa has a natural analgesic that numbs the skin so it's great for itching. :)
I suffer from periodic psoriasis, have tried many lotions to reduce the inflammation and itching, without success so far. Two years ago, I visited South Island on holiday and was shown Nurture skin balm by a sales person in Blenheim. I bought it and it sat on the shelf until a month ago when I found it by accident. I saw that it contains all natural oils and manuka. I started using it on my skin and the results have been impressive. The itching has stopped and the skin is slowly returning to a normal colour and texture.
I have one quibble with the lotion, which is why I haven’t given 5 starts: the consistency of the balm starts to liquify and beomes grainy, even with a newly purchased tin a week old. The tin can leak not kept hoziomtal.
So glad it's helping your Psoriasis. We have a dilemna with the consistency - too much wax - and it is too thick on the skin and not as nice, too little and it liquifies (low melting point). The grainy feel is from the organic Shea Butter - however we have recently changed our supplier of this so hoping this may have rectified this problem. We always suggest that if you're travelling to pop the product in a different container to help stop leakage. However, it is made from oils, and oils do tend to seep. - Liz
I spend a lot of time sitting in my wheelchair and the lower tummy area can get itchy and not fresh smelling..I have found this cream has sorted this problem and with summer coming I'm pleased to have found this ..
Glad you have been given relief with the Kawakawa Skin Soother. Liz
