The pretty bell-shaped golden flowers of kowhai especially attract the native birds the fantail and tui. And the kowhai botanical extract especially attracts us because it's blessed with natural antimicrobial properties - giving it the ability to stop the growth of microorganisms like bacteria or fungi, making it the perfect cleansing agent.
For your skin, it is:
- deeply moisturizing
- a strong-working antimicrobial cleanser.
Kowhai leaves contain a complex mixture of flavonoid C- and O- glycosides, while the tree's bark and seeds contain alkaloids.)
