"My 2 year old daughter suffers from severe eczema. (Before photos was when her skin was at its best using steroid cream, after photos are 3 weeks post Mamaku products.)
My daughters eczema would get so bad she would have open wounds on her arms, there would be blood all through her bedsheets, she would scratch so much she would cry and eventually became self conscious and always wanted her arms and legs covered. This all came on so fast and what had started with a little patch on the inside of her elbows and back of her knees spread all over her arms and legs, eventually spreading to her face.
After numerous doctors visits and being told over and over again to just increase the length of time using steroid creams I decided to put her onto a low histamine diet, slowly wean her off steroid creams and just keep trying every product until I found one suitable for her. Her skin suffered from topical steroid withdrawal for 4 days. The Mamaku Hydra Gel has worked absolute wonders for my daughter’s skin. Her eczema has nearly completely gone. She still scratches every now and then but using the gel morning and night keeps her skin hydrated and eczema free!!
Most amazing product!! You have saved my daughters skin and for that I am so incredibly thankful ❤️ " - Michelle
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes - Mamaku Skin products can be used to help manage and reduce the symptoms of Eczema and other skin conditions alike.
Eczema is unique to each individual, so results can vary. Some may see improvements within days, while for others, it could take weeks or even months. It's important to consider factors like dietary or environmental triggers, and potential Topical Steroid Withdrawal (TSW) which may also impact how quickly you see results. Please consult with a dermatologist or appropriate skin health professional for the best course of action.
Yes - Mamaku products can be used on babies and children of all ages. We use the best available natural ingredients to ensure our products can be safely used.
All our products are infused with our very own unique Mamaku extract which is derived from the New Zealand native Mamaku fern (also known as Cyathea Medullaris.) This is the key active ingredient in all our products.
Mamaku products can aid in managing severe eczema flare-ups. It is however important to consider what dietary, environmental or allergy based triggers may be causing flare-ups as these can greatly influence the effectiveness of any natural treatment. We recommend consulting a health care professional to help identify what triggers are causing your flare-ups.
If you've been using topical steroid creams on-going and you're looking to transition to a natural treatment it's important to be aware that your skin may experience Topical Steroid Withdrawal (TSW.) During this period you may experience symptoms of TSW which include;
- Red, inflamed skin
- Severe itching and burning
- Dry, flaky skin
- Swelling and oozing
- Increased sensitivity and irritation
During this transition period it's important to stay consistent. Regular use of the products is essential. Consistency will help your skin adjust and heal over time.

Over a decade ago, we personally faced the challenges of sensitive skin. Our own struggles, coupled with witnessing the suffering of loved ones, propelled us to seek innovative alternatives. Amidst the plethora of products, we recognised the need for a fresh approach – one that harmonised modern science with time-honoured wisdom, mirroring the approach of rongoā (traditional Māori medicine)
