Palo Santo means "holy wood" in Spanish, and it has been used for centuries in South America to cleanse spaces and restore energy. This is the high-resin variety, which means the sticks have a richer, more concentrated scent with a distinctive woody base and hints of mint and citrus.
What matters with Palo Santo is how it is sourced. These sticks are 100% wild-harvested from trees that have already died and been left to mature naturally, which concentrates the resin and produces a higher quality, more aromatic wood. No living trees are cut. The wood comes from small, family-owned farms in Peru and is certified by the Peruvian Ministry of Forestry and Wildlife.
The pouch is 100% compostable, so there is no packaging waste to worry about.
About the Maker
Nunaia is an Irish organic skincare brand founded by Nicola Connolly, who spent over a decade living and working with indigenous communities in the Amazon Rainforest, Galapagos Islands, and Andes Mountains of Peru and Ecuador. While living in the Andes, she noticed how local people used incredible plants to stay healthy and look after their skin despite harsh conditions, and she began adopting their practices. Nunaia works directly with small farmer growers in Peru who use sustainable, certified organic farming practices. Every product is made in Ireland, in North Tipperary.
How to Use
Hold one end of the stick at a 45-degree angle and light with a match or lighter. Allow the flame to burn for about 30 seconds, then blow it out. The stick will smoulder and release a fragrant smoke. Walk around the space you want to cleanse, or place the stick in a heatproof dish and allow the smoke to fill the room. The stick will extinguish itself after a few minutes. Each stick can be relit many times.
