But there's a lot more this little beauty can do!
Because our Kawakawa Balm is NZ Made and beautifully natural, as well as being packed with mystical actives like the amazing myrsticin, which has demonstrated anti-inflammatory effects in research studies (really!) (1), antiseptic eugenol, antioxidant lignins, minerals and vitamins, this natural balm has a lot of goodness packed into one jar! Best of all it has so many uses. See how many of these you have used Kawakawa Balm for, and let us know if we missed any in the comments below!
Soothing Everyday Irritated and Eczema-Prone Skin
By keeping the skin moisturised with a rich barrier full of natural actives, Kawakawa Balm has been helpful for so many adults and children with eczema-prone skin. The water free, filler free, chemical free formula of Frankie's Kawakawa Balm means it is more effective at trapping moisture to the skin and less irritating than mainstream eczema creams. Meanwhile, that mystical myristicin is one of kawakawa's star natural compounds, working hard alongside the balm's rich barrier to keep skin feeling calm and comfortable.
Our Eczema Care Trio combines Kawakawa Balm, Soothing Oat Bath Soak and Kawakawa Body Oil for a complete skin soothing solution.
Natural Bug Repellent, Not Just a Bite Soother
Again it's myristicin that's thought to help calm the itch, discomfort and swelling from a bite - but Kawakawa's also a natural bug repellent, so half the time it's stopping the bite before it happens!
The Everyday Family Uses You Might Not Know About
Use our natural Kawakawa Balm as a nappy barrier, cradle cap cream, nipple cream, for cracked heels, rough skin and get a natural lather with a Kawakawa Cleansing Bar, and apply Kawakawa Body Oil as a natural after-bath intensive moisturiser.
Even Family Pets Love It
Irritated puppy dog noses, wounded pony legs, sunburnt pussy cat ears - Frankie clients share the love of Kawakawa with the creatures in their families too! Knowing that the Kawakawa Balm is natural gives animal lovers peace of mind when taking care of their pets.
