Tiaki

To guard. To care for. To look after.

Skincare and home rituals made in small batches by a wāhine Māori founder in Te Whanganui-a-Tara, drawing on rongoā plants and a decade in professional kitchens. A few quiet minutes each day, given back to you.

Our signature scent

Hotel at Home

The scent of rooms that let you breathe out. Bergamot and vervain open bright; lavender, ginger and peony soften the heart; sandalwood and musk settle it warm, never heavy.

The founder

From the kitchen to the ritual.

Rawinia Rimene spent a decade as a professional chef before turning those instincts to skin. Raised in Ōpōtiki, she makes every formula the way she once cooked: in small batches, with nothing that doesn't belong.
