Philosophy

From the day I opened my studio to share my first workshop with visitors, I have been committed to building a business that supports my community and promotes natural products and sustainable practices.

Locally owned

Being an Ubud local, I’m proud to say that in a market dominated by foreign-owned companies, UBI is locally owned – by me!

Supporting my community

From the hibiscus leaves in my natural body care products to the coconut oil and honey in my shop, every ingredient and product is bought from nearby farmers.

As well as generating an income stream for the rural community, the UBI team comes from families who have lived in the region for generations.

My walks and tours include visits to my family’s farm and the local temple. I’m passionate about my community and our customs, and love sharing them with visitors.

Promoting natural products and sustainable practices

My body care products are chemical-free. They contain natural botanical ingredients and 100% steam-distilled essential oils.

All my honeys, oils and teas are produced locally using traditional processes that have minimal impact on the environment.

UBI packaging is proudly made from recycled or recyclable glass, plastic and paper.
