Ahhh is a vibrant, playful, luxurious range of bathroom beauties handmade with love in New Zealand. From soap, scrub, moisturiser, shampoo and conditioning concentrated solid bars, to effervescent bath bombs, at Ahhh they use the very best of carefully hand-selected, natural and organic ingredients. Ahhh handcrafts their delectable products to make you fizz with anticipation no matter what your day throws at you.
What is your company background, how did you start the business?
Ahhh is 4 years old, I created Ahhh the same time I had my first child as I wanted to create products for self-care that were not only good for you but also good for the environment. My escape at the end of a busy day at work or with the kids was relaxing in a hot bath with a luxurious bath bomb.
I used to work for a soap manufacturing company and my boss decided to sell so my husband and I jumped at the chance, it just happened to be the same time I had my first baby, so it was a pretty full-on time. Ahhh products were created to give everyone some "me time" and because they are all in-home compostable packaging there is no lasting impact on the environment.
What is the current product range and variants and how do these products stand out in the market?
