This brand truly walks the talk. They make their products locally in New Zealand with cruelty free and vegan formulations.

Super skin smoothing, one layer of this exfoliating mask gives a boost of hydration and skin refining polish. This gave all the feels and I really enjoyed this interesting combo of ingredients with just the right amount of texture that was gentle and never too harsh on skin. I appreciate their detailed ingredient breakdown so customers can make informed choices about what they want in skincare. I also love their commitment to low waste and small batch approach!
My favourite thing about this product it the texture and how nice it feels on the skin. I also love that it contains quartz crystals in it! I have never tried a product with this ingredient before and I love, absolutely love it! I also love that Akaia Blends collect and return backing paper from their courier labels! That shows that they are taking time and effort to really care about re-use and recycling their materials which is fantastic!
