Māreikura Skin Kawakawa Body Oil | Natural Nourishing & Grounding Oil
A Daily Ritual to Nourish Your Vessel
The Māreikura Skin Body Oil is more than a daily moisturizer—it is an invitation to slow down, reconnect with your body, and honor your skin. Infused with the soothing botanical properties of Kawakawa and nutrient-rich Sweet Almond Oil, this restorative blend is deeply nourishing and designed to absorb effortlessly.
This oil is a way of giving back to the vessel that carries you through life, leaving your skin feeling supple, cared for, and radiating a healthy, natural glow.

Frequently Asked Questions
When is the best time to apply the Māreikura Skin Body Oil? For maximum hydration, we recommend applying the oil immediately after a shower or bath while your skin is still slightly damp. This helps to seal in moisture, leaving your skin feeling soft and supple all day.
Is this oil suitable for very sensitive skin? Yes. Kawakawa has been used traditionally in Rongoā Māori for generations to soothe and calm the skin. The Sweet Almond Oil base is also gentle and lightweight. However, as it does contain natural essential oils, we recommend a small patch test before full body use if your skin is highly reactive.
Will this oil leave a greasy residue on my clothes? No, our formulation is designed to be deeply nourishing but fast-absorbing. If you apply it to slightly damp skin and massage it in fully, it will leave a radiant glow rather than a heavy, greasy finish. Allow a few minutes for it to sink in before dressing.
