The brand manufactures in small batches to reduce overproduction and expired stock and prioritises renewable, 100% natural plant-based ingredients while avoiding petrochemical-derived materials. Minimal, recyclable packaging is used for e-commerce orders and waste-aware operations include reusing incoming cartons and minimising printed materials.

The brand manufactures in New Zealand, supporting local employment and is 100% women-run, offering flexible and part-time roles to support women, particularly mothers, in balancing work and family life. It fosters an inclusive, respectful and supportive workplace environment.
Product Reviews by Experts
With winter here, the Indie + Mae Body Butter could not have come at a better time! This is such a rich, super-hydrating body butter that has deeply nourished my skin and will continue to do so throughout the colder months. A little goes a long way and it absorbs beautifully into the skin, leaving it with a healthy glow and without any greasy residue. The inclusion of the affirmation card is a lovely touch too, which I will definitely be keeping 😊 Hallelujah to no secondary boxing! I really appreciate that they don’t use excessive packaging which just ends up being thrown away. I much prefer to see a business invest money into their formulations and fair employment than into unnecessary packaging and waste. I also love that they produce in small batches to ensure the integrity and freshness of their natural formulas.
This blissful ‘Warm Vanilla Body Butter’ comes in a beautiful glass jar with soft pink and white detailing and feels like a daily self-care ritual. Rich yet easy to apply, it melts into the skin leaving a silky soft finish – with a dreamy vanilla scent that makes the experience all the more delightful. This brand’s responsible sourcing, vegan and cruelty-free standards, transparent practices, and support for an inclusive workplace demonstrate an inspiring commitment to operating with integrity.
This was lush and creamy when applied on the skin. It felt really refreshing and hydrating with a hint of vanilla scent. A little goes a long way which is also very cost effective. I’m impressed by the use of sustainable packaging and the conscious effort to reduce unnecessary excess packaging. I also appreciate that this product is plant based and manufactured in small batches.
