About Waimea Body Essentials – Home of Hawaiʻi’s Natural Skin Care

Nestled on the Big Island of Hawaiʻi in the charming ranch town of Waimea (Kamuela)—home of the legendary Parker Ranch—we craft our soaps, lotions, body mists, creams, and other luxurious body care products one small batch at a time.

What began more than 15 years ago at local farmers’ markets and craft fairs has grown into a beloved brand enjoyed across the Hawaiian Islands, the U.S. mainland, Canada, Japan, and Germany — all thanks to your aloha and continued support.

At the heart of our collection are two signature lines designed to nourish, soothe, and delight your ‘ili (the Hawaiian word for skin):
  • Lavender Collection – Classic, calming lavender blends (including Lavender & Rosemary, Lavender & Honey, Lavender & Vanilla, and more) perfect for everyday pampering and deep relaxation.
  • ‘ili Collection – Our tropical Hawaiian fragrances that capture the true essence of the islands. Rich, fast-absorbing lotions, creamy soaps, and light body mists made with mango butter, coconut oil, and kukui nut oil.
Every product is handmade with nourishing tropical oils and butters (kukui, coconut, mango, shea, and more), pure essential oils or premium fragrances, and is free of phthalates, sulfates, and parabens. We are proudly cruelty-free (never tested on animals) and use recyclable packaging whenever possible to honor our beautiful ‘āina (land).

Whether you’re treating yourself after a beach day, soothing dry winter skin, or sharing a little aloha with someone special, we’re here to help you experience the difference that small-batch, Hawaiian-made skincare can make.
