Hawi Nature’s Touch is a faith-based skincare business whose faith is centred on the Bible. For our founders, trust in God and the teachings of Scripture are foundational to the story behind the name, our gratitude for His creation and the desire to make nourishing everyday care.

Bible-centred faith behind the Hawi name

Our founders chose Nature’s Touch from their belief that nature is a gift from God. The plants, seeds, nuts and fruits from which our botanical ingredients come are all gifts of His creation. From the shea nut that yields rich butter to the sunflower seed and coconut that provide nourishing oils, our appreciation begins with gratitude to the Creator. Thoughtfully bringing these ingredients into everyday skincare is one way we put that gratitude into practice.

For the founders, Hawi represents a gift from God or a blessing. That meaning sits at the heart of the brand: giving thanks to God for His provision, appreciating the people who help bring each product to life, and caring for the families who choose it. Our faith is rooted in the Bible, and our appreciation of nature is an expression of that faith.

Oils and personal care in the Bible

As the foundation of our faith, the Bible shapes how our founders understand gratitude, purpose and care for others. Its references to oils, fragrance and grooming also connect this story with the long history of personal care.

Frankincense: worship, reverence and a connection to Hawi

Frankincense has a special place in this story because it appears in Scripture and in our skincare line. In Matthew 2:11, the Magi worship Jesus and present gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. In Exodus 30:34–38, frankincense is included in the sacred incense set apart for worship.

Its biblical significance is therefore connected with worship, reverence and a precious offering. These passages give the ingredient a meaningful connection to Hawi’s Bible-centred faith and gratitude to God for His creation.

Our Revive & Glow Vitamin E Facial Serum includes frankincense essential oil, listed among its ingredients as Olibanum/Boswellia sacra. It sits alongside Vitamin E and nourishing plant oils in our facial-care blend. This is not a recreation of the sacred incense formula: the biblical connection expresses our brand’s inspiration, while the serum’s everyday role is facial moisture and nourishment.

Esther: time devoted to preparation

Esther 2:12 describes twelve months of preparation before the women were presented to King Xerxes: six months with oil of myrrh and six with perfumes and cosmetics.

For Hawi’s founders, the passage is a reminder that oils and beauty routines have a long place in biblical accounts. You do not need a palace or a twelve-month treatment to make time for care today. A simple routine can still be thoughtful and enjoyable.

David: washing, anointing and returning to worship

In 2 Samuel 12:20, David washes, anoints himself or puts on lotions, depending on the translation, changes his clothes and goes to worship. The verse appears in a story of grief and worship, and we respect that context rather than treating it as a beauty instruction.

It also reminds us that personal grooming is not only a women’s practice. Everyday care can have a place in the lives of both women and men.

Why choose Hawi? Nature, heritage and everyday nourishment

Choose Hawi for natural skincare that connects familiar ancestral ingredients with practical care today. Shea butter and coconut oil have been used across generations to care for skin and hair. They connect our formulas with the beauty knowledge passed through families and communities, not simply the latest ingredient trend.

For us, that heritage begins with God’s provision: the plants and seeds behind our ingredients are gifts from Him. We bring those botanical gifts together with care, creating nourishing products while giving thanks for the land, growers and skilled hands involved.

That heritage has roots close to home, from northern Uganda’s Nilotica shea to Kenya’s coconut-growing coast. Our formulated skincare is handcrafted in Kenya, while our Raw Nilotica Shea Butter is sourced from Uganda. Complementary ingredients are selected for the needs of each formula.

Our shea-based butters help soften skin and retain moisture, while the Vitamin E-rich facial serum offers lightweight facial nourishment and a healthy-looking glow. Behind that everyday care is a business whose founders give thanks to God and draw their values from the Bible.

Find a simple Hawi routine that suits you

Rich moisture for dry skin

The Hawi Natural Dry Skin Duo pairs Carob Lemongrass Butter 100ml with Revive & Glow Facial Serum 30ml. Choose it for rich moisture and care for dry, dull-looking skin.

Vanilla Orange care for normal skin

The Hawi Natural Normal Skin Duo combines Vanilla Orange Butter 100ml with the same facial serum. Choose it for normal to combination skin if you enjoy a warm vanilla-and-citrus scent.

A standalone facial step

The Hawi Vitamin E Facial Serum 30ml offers lightweight moisture and care for dull-looking skin and uneven-looking tone. It is a practical starting point if you prefer choosing one product at a time.

For the duos, apply serum first, then a pea-size amount of the paired butter on the face; apply butter generously on the body as directed. Read the ingredients, patch-test new products and follow the product instructions.

Give yourself, or someone you love, a little care

You do not need an elaborate ritual to enjoy nourishing skincare. A few manageable steps can turn an ordinary morning or evening into a moment of care.

For a coordinated selection, explore the Hawi Self-Care Hamper, with body butter, facial serum and lip balm. Whether you are discovering Hawi for yourself or choosing a thoughtful gift, we are grateful to be part of your everyday routine.
