Merrika Clay & Ochre Scrub

Yearning for the outdoors? Our Merrika Clay and Ochre Scrub is for you. We’ve combined coastal botanicals and nourishing clay to enrich the incredible body scrub benefits in our unique formula. 

The hero of this revitalising scrub is the Merrika (Broad Leaved Wattle), whose leaves are gathered from trees on Groote Eylandt. Combined with mineral-rich kaolin clay and an oatmeal soap base, the crushed seeds, bark and flowers of the Merrika are also added to optimise the exfoliating properties. Allow the nostalgic scent of eucalyptus to help your drift away to relaxation.

Ingredients

• Oatmeal Soap Base, Coconut Oil (Refined) Certified Organic ACO, Acacia Aulacocarpa (Broad Leaved Wattle) Extract, Australian Kaolin Clay, Groote Eylandt Ochre, Eucalyptus Oil Organic ACO/USDA, Tea Tree Oil Organic ACO 

Learn more about the botanicals 

Along with its multitude of uses in soothing the skin, Merrika is used by our elders as ‘botanical clock’… we know that when this tree flowers, that the terns are laying their eggs. Traditionally, men used the wood to make the sharp tips of their fishing spears, and women used the wood for digging sticks. As well as using Merrika in our balms and soaps, we use the seasonal flowers in our body butter.
