Hawaii entrepreneur launches organic skin care line
With the plant-based movement building in popularity, it seems people are more conscious of what they put into their bodies and on their skin. Now, a Hawaii woman makes caring for your skin and body as easy as farm-to-face.
Oahu resident Melanie Wood launched Oahu Organics as an all-natural, organic, locally harvested, made-in-Hawaii “skin and soul” care line. Completely made from medicinal plants, Oahu Organics products uses the healing properties of specialty plants and flowers grown from local organic farms on both Oahu and Kauai to create vitamin-rich cleansers, serums, masks, moisturizers, and body polish/exfoliators. Wood believes all natural skin care provides essential healing benefits- while at the same time supporting local farmers.
She first started selling her products at Oahu farmer’s markets, and now added a digital storefront. Due to social restrictions and COVID-19 limitations, she says web sales have skyrocketed, with over 90% of skin care sales moving online.
In December, Oahu Organics released its newest line called The Essential Collection, a handcrafted, customizable set of essential oils for face and body. The plant-based line be blended to address any skin type. Wood says natural oils promote healthy, rejuvenated, glowing skin. She packages these new serums in boxes and glass bottles that are 100% earth-friendly, reusable, and recyclable.
