Kids Actually Want to Wash Their Hands
"We have this in every bathroom. The kids actually want to wash their hands now — it smells incredible. The blood orange scent is beautiful and it doesn't dry out their skin like supermarket hand wash does."
Best Hand Wash We've Ever Used
"The blood orange scent is incredible — not overpowering, just beautiful. My hands feel soft after washing, not stripped and dry like with supermarket brands. The refill is genius too. Less plastic, more value."
Gentle on My Daughter's Eczema
"My daughter has eczema on her hands and most hand washes make it worse. This one is the first that doesn't irritate her skin at all. She loves the smell and I love knowing it's plant-based and NZ-made."
The Refill Is Such a Smart Idea
"Love that you can get the refill with it. Less waste, saves money, and the hand wash itself is beautiful. The harakeke and blood orange combination smells like a spa. My whole family uses it."
Read the Ingredients and Switched
"I finally read the back of our supermarket hand wash and was horrified by the ingredient list. Switched to Real World and the difference is night and day. My hands aren't dry anymore and my kids' skin is so much better."
Looks Beautiful on the Counter
"Not only does it work beautifully and smell amazing, but the bottle looks gorgeous on the bathroom counter. Guests always comment on it. The refill bundle is perfect — great value and less plastic waste."

What's Inside
Honestly Formulated.
Kōwhai Extract
NZ's golden native, rich in antioxidants that protect skin from environmental stress and help restore a healthy, even tone.
Koromiko Extract
A traditional Māori healing plant, Koromiko is rich in tannins and flavonoids that soothe, tone, and strengthen the skin barrier.
Horopito Extract
Known as NZ's natural pepper plant, Horopito contains polygodial — a powerful anti-inflammatory and antifungal compound that calms irritated, reactive skin.
Mānuka Honey
Nature's most powerful healer. Rich in MGO — a unique antibacterial compound found only in NZ Mānuka — it deeply nourishes, repairs cracked skin, and locks in moisture where it's needed most.
The Solution
Your Family Deserves Better.
You read the labels on the food you feed your family. You check the ingredients, you make considered choices — because what goes into their bodies matters. But when did you last turn over the hand wash bottle? Most hand washes are mass-produced with sulfates and synthetic fragrances — and your family uses them multiple times a day. Real World's Harakeke & Blood Orange Hand Wash is made in small batches right here in Hawke's Bay with plant-based ingredients that are gentle on sensitive skin. The refill bundle means less plastic waste and more value. No sulfate surfactants, no synthetic fragrances. Just plant-based efficacy you can trust.

Made By Us. For You.
It Started With Sore, Cracked Hands.
As a mum with four young kids and endless hours in the kitchen, my hands were a wreck — red, dry, cracked. Nothing worked. So we made something that did. Real World was born in Hawke's Bay from a simple belief: that the products we use every day should be as good for us as they are for the planet.
