Aloha, my name is Chihiro Ueta.

I am...
Founder of ʻauʻau hawaiʻi
Soap maker
Lei maker
Hula dancer.

I started making soap and beauty products because I was suffering from skin breakouts. I wanted to heal my skin holistically so I leaned medical herb, aroma therapy and soap making. I gave my soap to my family and friends because it helped my skin. They loved it so much and asked for more.
Eventually soap making became a career that I truly love.

Me ka haʻahaʻa, Chihiro

自身の肌荒れに悩み、自然な方法で根本的に治したいと思い2008年頃からメディカルハーブ、アロマセラピー、石鹸作りを学ぶ。
家族や友人にその石鹸をあげるともっと欲しい、売ってほしいと言われる様になり気づけばライフワークに。
ハワイコミュニティカレッジハワイアンライフスタイル学科フラ専攻卒業。
沖縄県宮古島市に拠点を置き、ハワイと日本の架け橋になりたいという思いで活動中。
