Flùr: Natural, Plant-Based Skincare from
New Zealand
A Journey Through Scent, Story & Sanctuary
She does not ask for applause
only sun and a little rain.
Still, the wild Flùr opens
as if the world depended on it.

Sanctuary – Slow beauty rituals for skin + bees
Flùr offers simple daily rituals for grounding and rest. With every purchase, we set aside 30c for a future wild bee sanctuary — creating sanctuary for your skin and sanctuary for the land.
Carrier Oils vs. Essential Oils
Carrier oils like jojoba or sweet almond are nourishing and soothing - perfect for daily use.
Essential oils are aromatic plant extracts, used sparingly to add scent and support well-being.
At Flùr, we blend both with intention -
Carrier oils for nourishment, and a whisper of essential oils to elevate the experience, never overwhelm it.

DID YOU KNOW? Every Flùr Purchase Gives Back to the Bees
Welcome to Flùr – where scent, story, and sanctuary meet.
I’m Kathryn, founder of Flùr Oils and Balms. Flùr began in 2020, shortly after I moved into a cottage nestled in Northland, surrounded by a wild, spray-free flower garden that seemed to hum with possibility. As a curious researcher (and a bit of a botanical enthusiast), I started exploring the healing properties of the plants growing right outside my door. What I discovered was remarkable: many of these backyard botanicals were not only beautiful, but also deeply beneficial for skin.
My first creations were balms and oils, and let’s just say the lavender and kawakawa balm earned its stripes early—when a hornet sting vanished into a pain-free memory moments after applying it, I knew I was onto something good.
I’d also read that up to 65% of what we put on our skin can end up in our bloodstream. That fact stuck with me. I wanted skincare that was as natural as possible—no mystery ingredients, just pure plant oils doing what they do best.
While tending the garden, I noticed how vital the bees and butterflies were to its health. That’s when the idea took root: I decided to set aside a portion of every Flùr sale to one day create a wild bee and pollinator sanctuary. It’s a dream still in bloom.
In 2023, after my mother - Josephine Woods, a teacher, poet, and storyteller - passed away, I wanted to honour her legacy. So, I added poetry to the Flùr experience. Each product now comes with a swing tag that doubles as a bookmark, printed with a poem and a gentle ritual. It’s a small literary keepsake, a tribute to her love of words, and a rather lovely companion to our oils.
Thank you for being here. I hope you enjoy our creations as much as I’ve loved making them.
Welcome to Flùr.
