Ingredients we use

Below are the ingredients contained in our products. They are organic, natural, and safe, even for use on newborn babies.
We use the fewest amount of ingredients, to obtain the best result. Each ingredient is chosen for its safety and low rate of allergy or sensitivity.
There are a few common ingredients, that we choose not to use, due to there being very little evidence of their safety, or that there has been some concerns raised about an ingredient, such as Lavender, but may just be theoretical and not yet proved, but why chance it?

We keep up to date with latest research, and will remove or replace any ingredient that comes under suspicion, until proven safe. 
Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions regarding ingredients or reasons we don't choose to use others. We am always interested in your opinions or research finds
.  



PURE NATURAL BEESWAX
Beeswax acts as a gentle skin protector, especially from moisture. It is a safe non-allergic medium to disperse other ingredients.

COCONUT OIL FOR NEWBORN BABY SKIN
Coconut oil  (Cocos nuciferais) a natural, safe oil, that is antibacterial, antiviral and anti fungal. It is excellent in the treatment of dry skin conditions, and incidence of allergy or sensitivity is exceptionally rare. 

PURE GRAPE SEED OIL FOR NEWBORN BABIES
  Grapeseed oil  (Vitis vinifera)   is a polyunsaturated oil. It is obtained from the seeds of grapes, it's absorbed quickly, leaving no oily residue. It contains the highest amounts of linoleic acid among any oil. Linoleic acid is an essential fatty acid, needed to maintain normal cell growth throughout the body. It has excellent moisturising abilities, and is gentle, safe and easily absorbed into the skin, and sensitivity is very rare. Makes an excellent carrier oil. 

Shea butter -  (Butyrospermum parkii) 
  is a naturally occurring butter, from the Shea nut. It
 
is an exceptional skin conditioner, that promotes cell            regeneration and improves circulation. Thought to possibly improve the appearance of stretch marks and scars when used with a massaging action. It is also antioxidant and anti inflammatory.
Baobab Oil - this is an amazing oil, derived for the Baobab Tree, also called The Tree of Life. It is an excellent moisturiser, as well as being able to sooth irritated skin. It encourages Collagen production and reduces the appearance of scars and stretchmarks.
PURE AND NATURAL DRY SKIN TREATMENT
MANUKA OIL FOR SKIN
   Manuka Oil -   (Leptospermum scoparium) 
Maori have long valued the Manuka tree for its healing properties. Infusions and poultices were made from the bark and leaves, and the seeds could be chewed. The Manuka tree also produces a nectar, that bees turn into the famous Manuka honey . Manuka oil is antibacterial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, antihistamine, and is anti-allergenic. It can be used with acne, chicken pox, cold sores, insect bites and warts.
It is made solely from the New Zealand Manuka tree. Often mistakenly thought to be the same as Tea Tree Oil, but unlike Tea Tree, it has no toxic levels.

Vanilla Oil - is a wonderful antiseptic. Has been shown to induce relaxation, reduce anxiety and improve depression

Natural Vitamin E - (Alpha-tocopherol) is both skin conditioning and an antioxidant – essential for the maintenance of healthy skin. There are no concerns about applying diluted Vitamin E to the skin, although there is some concern relating to high doses of Vitamin E taken as supplements, particularly in pregnancy, the same concerns do not exist when applied to the skin.

  What people are saying about Kiwi Born

​Hi there Just wanted to let you know that the Chapped Chops cream has worked so well on my 8 month old twin boys. I had been to the doctors so many times about their dribble rash and had been prescribed loads of different creams which seemed to inflame and dry out the skin. Your cream heals and protects and their little faces are so much better now. I will be ordering some more tonight and be telling all my mummy friends about your product too. Thank you  CARA-
