OUR STORY
When my daughter’s eczema flared and my own dry skin struggled with stress, harsh weather, and hard water, I turned to African botanicals like shea butter, marula oil, and baobab.
Backed by deep research, safe formulation training, and a Legal and Governance mindset, I created simple, plant-led formulas without cheap fillers or common irritants. They brought the relief we needed.
If your skin needs comfort, barrier support, and calmer days, you’re in the right place.
Zawadi means “gift” in Swahili. Our gift is heritage-rooted care for softer, more comfortable skin through every season.
Let customers speak for us
A lovely, nourishing moisturizer that brings out a natural radiance while keeping the skin smooth and hydrated.
I use this bamboo soap holder with my African Black Soap and it keeps the bar firm and dry instead of soft and mushy. It looks great in my bathroom and has definitely helped my soap last much longer.
Leaves my skin feeling deeply cleansed, soft, and noticeably brighter without any dryness. I’ve seen fewer breakouts and a healthy glow since using it, and a little really goes a long way.
I love Zawadi products! Their prestige body butter is the truths! The black soap is luscious and smells amazing. I use the facial oil every night. I wake looking brand new.
I have combination skin and it’s hard to find the right products that my skin absorbs and doesn’t leave you feeling sticky and clammy.
I highly recommend their whole range! You have a customer for life. Thank you
I came across Zawadi Naturals in Morley's last summer and brought the trial selection. I finally tried this over the last couple of weeks as the weather changed. All the products leave my skin feeling moisturised and refreshed. The scents are really uplifting and the texture of the body butter is luxurious.
This leaves my skin feeling soft and radiant!

I used to have really dry, rough skin on my feet, especially my heels, and nothing seemed to work properly. I started using Pink Prestige and honestly the difference surprised me. My feet feel so much softer and the dryness has really improved. They look healthier now, not ashy or cracked. It’s definitely become part of my routine.
Very lightweight and keeps skin feeling moisturised all day long. Great ingredients and a lovely natural product.
I loved this scrub. Leaves the soft and subtle
Great products, great service, great delivery times. Can’t complain!
Will definately be buying from here again.
This creme feel super nurturing yet silky smooth to apply. If I feel my skin needs some extra, I add some drops of their face oil. Love the smell of both. I really found my new skin care product. Love it!!
i have been using the sea moss and lavender soap bar, and i find it very hydrating and moisturizing as someone with dry/eczema prone skin. i would say the same for the body butter - i have recommended both products to my friends and family!
Wow!!!!!
I used this product as I wanted to add a tumeric scrub or cleanser to my skincare.
Absolute zero disappointment with this product.
The pineapple smell with the tumeric colouring is obvious as soon as you open the tin.
What I found even more special was the feel of it on my skin, and how easy it was to remove. Washing this scrub off was so easy, unlike a lot of products that get into the eyes.
The tumeric is there when washing off, so use a flannel or something or aid the removal of the scrub rather than just hands.
I felt the difference in my skin immediately, and could see the brightness of my skin.
Definitely one to buy again.
I came across Zawadi Naturals at a market in Kings Cross, and bought the Pink Prestige Body Butter -200ml.
I used it on my trip to Japan and got so many compliments about the smell, this kept my skin hydrated all day through the hot weather, and then soft for the night.
That was over a month ago and it's only finished now.
Absolutely buying again and well worth the price.

Frequently Asked Questions
You'll notice immediate comfort: skin feels softer, looks visibly moisturised (non-ashy), and lightly scented.
Skin renews in cycles of about 28–35 days (faster when younger, slower if the barrier is stressed), so consistent use for at least one full cycle is key to steadier moisture, smoother texture, and a calmer look.
Most customers notice improvements between 2 weeks and 3 months.

Yes, our body butters are made from natural and organic plant oils and butters, which
can melt in high temperatures. This is perfectly normal due to the ingredients' sensitivity to heat. If your body butter does melt, simply place it in a cool area or refrigerate it for a while to restore its firmness. The melting does not affect the product's quality or effectiveness. Keep the product in a cool, dry place to avoid this issue.
