Our Story

Dew Kind started with our little boy’s eczema.

Before this, I was working in the beauty industry - I loved the creativity, but over time I grew uncomfortable with all the hidden ingredients, the marketing spin, and the waste.

When our son’s skin flared, we realised we couldn’t keep putting things on him (or ourselves) that we didn’t fully trust.

So we went back to basics.  We began experimenting with simple, time-honoured ingredients.  We rendered tallow by hand.  We infused organic herbs.  Out of desperation, we made our first balm - and watched it calm his skin when nothing else could.

That’s where Dew Kind was born.  A way to care for skin and home without compromise. Every balm, bar, and candle we make supports low-tox living and creates safe, beautiful spaces.

Our name comes from the quiet blessing of dew, often spoken of in scripture as a symbol of grace, renewal, and gentle provision.  It’s the way we want to live and create - slowly, intentionally, with care.

Everything is made by hand here in Aotearoa.  We use grass-fed New Zealand tallow rendered in-house, paired with organic oils and botanicals chosen for their skin-loving, grounding qualities. No fillers, no synthetic fragrance - just clean, purposeful care you can feel good about using and gifting.

If our products become part of your daily ritual or something you share with loved ones, thank you.  That means the world to us.
