From the Native Kiwi Bush to Your Skin: Natural Remedy for Joints Muscles and Skin.

Kia ora, lovely friends! Britt here from Kawakawa Miracle.

What a glorious spell of warm sunshine to gather our Kawakawa leaves in, to create the next handmade batch of Kawakawa Miracle Oil. It is now washed, dried and infusing in gently warmed Organic Jojoba Oil for the next six weeks.

As the crisp New Zealand air starts to set in for winter, many of us begin noticing a familiar twinge in our joints worsening, or find our skin feeling chapped or dry. Living in beautiful Aotearoa means embracing the elements, but it shouldn't mean living with discomfort. Today, I wanted to chat about the backyard magic we use to soothe those aches and deeply hydrate dry skin, bringing healing completely naturally.

The Power of Hand-Gathered Kawakawa

If you’ve ever walked through our native bush, you’ve likely seen the heart-shaped leaves of the Kawakawa plant. At Kawakawa Miracle, we specifically hand-gather the leaves nibbled by the native looper moth. Kawakawa Leaves Being Dried

Traditional Rongoā Māori teaches us that the leaves with holes are the ones to select, where the plant concentrates its most potent healing oils to defend itself.

When applied topically, this incredible native botanical works wonders:

  • Eases Joint Discomfort: It naturally helps increase circulation and calms inflammation, bringing relief to stiffness and discomfort.
  • Soothes Irritation: It acts as a calming shield to quickly break the frustrating "itch-scratch" cycle of dry, irritated skin.

Why Organic Jojoba Oil is the Perfect Partner

Kawakawa is an absolute powerhouse on its own, but the real magic happens when we infuse those fresh leaves into Organic Jojoba Oil.

Jojoba is unique because its molecular structure closely mimics our skin’s natural sebum and is a beauty treatment all on its own for the skin. It is absorbed quickly, carrying the anti-inflammatory properties of Kawakawa deep into our tissues and joints. It locks in moisture without clogging pores, leaving dry, cracked skin feeling silky smooth and deeply restored. We create the Miracle by creating a unique synergy of ingredients including Shungite which gives off health giving Fullerenes during the infusion process, and matches the body’s molecular structure. Not forgetting vitamin E which is added at the end of the process. Nothing but gorgeous natural goodness!


Whether you’re dealing with changing weather dryness, garden-weary hands, or stubborn aching joints, nature has provided everything we need right here in our own backyard.

Sending you all so much healing,

Warmest wishes
