Mamarra Bush Soap

Hand made by Bush Medijina. Our peppermint and eucalyptus-scented Mamarra Soap has been developed from the traditional bush recipes we inherited from our elders.

To create this beautiful formula, we use the extract from Mamarra (Small Leaved Paperbark) leaves in a natural soap base and combine them with organic coconut oil. This nourishing formula creates a soft and soothing Australian natural soap – perfect as an everyday cleanser.

All of our soaps are housed in biodegradable, eco-friendly plastic to minimise the impact on our planet.

Mamarra and Mawilyaburna trees are found in billabongs and wetlands on Groote Eylandt and are traditionally used in very similar ways. We learned from our elders to steep their leaves in water to soothe our bodies. Mamarra wood was used by Anindiliyakwa men to make canoes and the bark was traditionally used by women to make coolamons to carry their babies. Mamarra and Mawilyaburna can be found in many of our products, from balms, to soaps, clays and scrubs
