What sets NueBar apart?

NueBar stands out as a one-of-a-kind brand for solid hair and body bars with its unique qualities and effectiveness. Unlike any other brand in the market, we pride ourselves on being the sole producer of 100% handmade and naturopathically formulated solid hair and body bars worldwide. Our brand offers several distinctive features, including pH balanced formulations, the use of premium ingredients with high benefits, a commitment to transparency, concentrated formulas, and support for eco-initiatives.

NueBar was founded by Katie Hennah, a naturopath, and her partner Kerry Wood, a creative director. Our specialty lies in creating salon-quality bars for hair, face, and body that are palm-oil-free, pH-balanced, and gentle on the skin. While we strive to create luxurious artisan products, we equally prioritize sustainability and eco-friendly packaging.

Our award-winning bars are packaged in recycled and compostable materials printed with soy-based inks. Moreover, we actively contribute to the cause of removing plastic waste from our oceans by donating 10% of our profits to Tangaroa Blue, a non-profit organization dedicated to this mission.

Why is it crucial to choose naturopathically formulated products for hair and skin care?

Naturopathy embraces a holistic approach to well-being, aiming to support the body’s natural healing capacity. Naturopaths often employ herbal medicines and encourage positive dietary and lifestyle changes to promote optimum health. When formulating body products, naturopaths prioritize different aspects compared to cosmetic chemists, reflecting a distinct mindset and set of priorities.

At NueBar, we prioritize caring for both our planet and your body. Every aspect of our products is crafted with care and consciousness. Our offerings are free of palm oil, handmade, vegan, cruelty-free, and do not contain SLS, SLES, parabens, silicones, petroleum by-products, or artificial fragrances. Additionally, our commitment to being plastic-free aligns with our mission to minimize the impact on the environment.

Despite our dedication to natural and sustainable practices, we never compromise on performance. Through the synergy of green chemistry and nature, we deliver exceptional results comparable to traditional bottled products, all while reducing our impact on the environment. Our concentrated, pH-balanced, and organically certified bars provide the outcomes you expect while minimizing harm to our precious environment.

Charitable Contribution

The oceans embody the splendor of our planet, brimming with life, beauty, and essential to the well-being of Earth’s inhabitants. Regrettably, they have become a repository for a staggering 8 million tons of plastic waste each year.

To address this issue, NueBar has partnered with Tangaroa Blue, our chosen charity. Tangaroa Blue, established in 2004 as an Australian registered charity, leads the Australian Marine Debris Initiative (AMDI). Tangaroa Blue not only organizes community clean-ups nationwide but also collects data on debris to identify practical solutions and prevent further pollution. For example, through AMDI, they identified lobster industry strapping bands as a significant contributor to marine litter in Western Australia. By engaging with the industry and advocating for legislative change, Tangaroa Blue successfully banned these bands on vessels throughout the region.

We greatly admire Tangaroa Blue’s comprehensive approach to combating ocean plastic pollution, which is why we donate 10% of our profits or 1% of our revenue (whichever is greater) annually to this highly effective and practical organization.
