Moisturize and protect your skin with kawakawa
Regarded as a cure-all for skin complaints by Māori, kawakawa's Pacific-green, heart-shaped leaves emerge from deep purple stems and its aromatic orange berries are dined on by beautiful native birds. Known as the Māori pepper tree, this is a small shrub which grows in shady gullies.
For your skin, it is:
- deeply moisturizing
- filming and protecting
- a natural tonic that can ease skin complaints.
Kawakawa contains myristicin, related to eugenol.
