New Zealand Kawakawa Balm – a not-so-secret silver bullet for irritated skin. This auction is for a 30mL metal tin of "Wayfarer", a creamy, delicious Kawakawa Balm designed to glide long distance and deeply moisturise as it relieves irritated skin, then absorb completely.

This insane-smelling kawakawa balm owes its delicious scent to kawakawa-infused extra virgin coconut oil and deeply fragrant cocoa butter. Despite being extra creamy thanks to these ingredients, it will glide even further than the rest of the Treebrush Apothecary range of kawakawa balm – a little goes a long way! Wayfarer kawakawa balm is ideal for rehabilitating chapped lips and dry, cracked skin; soothing insect stings and bites, eczema and sunburn; and as a general moisturising balm for thirsty skin. Bring the fragrance of summer with you no matter the season with this little beauty.

Adding to the fragrance are floral notes from candelilla wax and sunflower wax: this balm is vegan!

To replace the usual beeswax, this formulation also features babassu oil (a wonderful emollient), safflower oil (beautifully lightweight and moisturising), and meadowfoam oil (also lightweight, forms a moisture barrier on the skin). A healthy splash of manuka essential oil is the cherry on top of this slick, healing tin of awesome.

TO USE: Take a small amount of balm and gently massage into the affected area until it absorbs. If the balm is cold, you may find it easier to run your fingernail across it backwards. It can also be used as a lip balm – a little goes a long way. Because this balm contains no beeswax, it may be super hard in cold weather and very soft in the heat; running a fingernail backwards over it in the cold makes it easier to use.

Ingredients: Kawakawa infused coconut oil, cocoa butter, candelilla wax, meadowfoam oil, babassu oil, safflower oil, brassica alcohols, stearic acid, manuka essential oil, vitamin E.
