ABOUT US
Mō Kā uri a muri ake nei
At Whāro we honour our past, and acknowledge all those who contributed to get us to where we find ourselves today. We are intentional in using traditional auahatanga and indigeneity to build ‘a vision and a strategy that will make as much sense to our mokopuna as it would to our tīpuna’ - mokāuri, 2050.
Our mission is to design exceptional high-quality Ao haka products, that honour our traditional blueprint and drive contemporary innovation that inspires all people to ‘unuhanga tō kaihaka’.
DISCLAIMERS
All products are formulated to be safe for all skin types, but if you have specific concerns please consult your dermatologist about the list of ingredients found on the packaging or on our website. Whāro products are cruelty-free and we never test on animals, nor do we allow suppliers to conduct animal testing on our behalf.
PAO VS. EXPIRATION
PAO stands for “period after opening,” and is represented by an icon with a number that indicates how many months the product will be fresh after opening. If a product has a PAO of 12, that means it should be used within 12 months of opening. Products with sunscreen are marked with an expiration date, which indicates when the product should stop being used, regardless of whether it has been opened.
Lastly, Whāro is not responsible for any damage resulting from the use of any product on our website. By purchasing items on our site, you are fully aware of our disclaimers and use products at your own risk.
