We're very grateful to have been named Gold Winner in this year's Clean + Conscious Awards, in the Best Natural Soap + Hand Wash category. Being a natural brand for us isn't about winning awards - it's about creating products that are safe for you, your family and the environment. But gee, it's nice to be recognised for it!
This year, our Lemon Myrtle Oil + Manuka Honey Refillable Glass Hand Wash took out top spot in one of our industry's most prestigious awards, the Clean + Conscious Awards.
These awards recognise the best-in-class natural products, making it easier for consumers to make everyday purchasing decisions.
"This recognition means so much because it proves affordable, accessible products can still change everyday habits for the better." – Sam Hutcherson, Co-Founder
The Lemon Myrtle Oil + Manuka Honey Hand Wash is part of our refillable glass range, designed to help cut down on single-use plastic without compromising on everyday performance. Lemon Myrtle oil brings a naturally uplifting, distinctly Australian scent along with gentle antimicrobial properties, while Manuka honey helps draw moisture to the skin, leaving hands feeling soft and nourished rather than dry or stripped. For us, this award is proof that doing right by your skin and the planet doesn't mean giving up a hand wash people genuinely love using every day.

What the judges said:
Niccii Kulger: The fresh lemon myrtle fragrance is uplifting and distinctly Australian, making every wash feel clean, refreshing and just a little indulgent. The formula creates a beautiful lather and left my hands feeling soft, nourished and comfortable after every use, never dry or stripped.
Julie Mathers: The focus on sustainable and regenerative farming practices, and carbon neutrality, are just a few of the reasons Freshwater Farm is a brand of the future. They are operating at scale in large supermarkets and yet maintain ethical and sustainable practices.
Ria Andriani: The glass bottle feels luxurious, and the price is still affordable to most people.
