about

Hello,

I’m JungHwa Kim, the creator of Studio Star.

I craft soaps and candles using 100% natural ingredients and locally sourced materials, inspired by a passion for sustainability and everyday beauty. My goal is to bring a little joy and care to your daily life.

After moving from the city to rural New Zealand in 2012, I felt a strong connection to nature, which led me to live more consciously. This journey began with making soap from local ingredients to reduce plastic waste at home.

I hope you enjoy my handmade products as much as I enjoy creating them for you.
