Bayo Akomolafe’s words communicate the idea of Slowhug very well. Slowhug is not about doing things relatively slow. Its rather about doing what we do, with a deeper sense of awareness. And for that, pace matters.

Joining the ranks

Basilic is the new member joining the gang of Slowhug soaps (after being in beta for over an year). Formulated to be a gentle soap with generous creamy lather, it keeps skin moist after a good wash. Besides, it is a hard, all season bar that can weather rainy days and humid climates.

Sunaina Kajal

Saritha T. A, Rajeev B published on 25-Nov-2019 included in Personal Care

Sunaina, meaning “Beautiful eyes” is a Kajal handmade with herbs in a traditional way. This is a long lasting Kajal safe for everyday use. In fact, Sunaina is the culmination of our search for a good Kajal for our daughter, who is training in Odissi Dance and applies Kajal quite frequently. This small, safe Kajal, easy to carry around and lasting a couple of years is a favourite among women.
