About Kula Essentials

Aloha and welcome to Kula Essentials We believe self-care should feel like an effortless escape—a moment of calm, a deep breath, a touch of island indulgence. That’s why at Kula Essentials, we craft simple, effective, and beautifully clean skincare, made right here on Maui. Our products are designed to nurture your skin, using Hawaii’s finest botanicals and natural ingredients. Our story began with my struggle—dry, sensitive skin that couldn’t find relief. Inspired by the lush beauty of Maui and two unexpected companions—a pair of Nigerian dwarf goats—I began handcrafting soaps, searching for gentle, natural solutions that truly worked. Guided by my Cornell degree in product development, I studied organic skincare formulation that follows strict European standards, researched traditional Hawaiian oils and botanicals, and communicated with experts worldwide. What started as a simple passion quickly turned into something bigger—a mission to help others feel confident in their skin while supporting Hawaii’s local farms and small businesses. Whether you’re treating yourself or gifting someone special, know that you’re part of something meaningful—a skincare ‘ohana that celebrates pure ingredients, sustainable beauty, and products that bring joy to every routine.
