The JUARA Kartini Body Oil delivers your skin a truly royal treatment — named in honour of Princess Kartini, one of Indonesia's most beloved and courageous figures, who in the 1800s used her royal influence to advocate for the emancipation of women and the education of children.
This luxurious premium dry oil is a radiance-boosting formula unlike any other body oil you will experience. Soothing frangipani, skin-brightening turmeric, Vitamin C-rich passionfruit, firming moringa oleifera and omega-packed candlenut oils absorb instantly into skin — leaving it silky smooth with a noticeably visible glow. No heaviness. No grease. Just the luminosity that only pure botanical oils can deliver.
The Kartini Body Oil is Step 3 of the Coffee Revival Ritual and a beautiful finishing layer over the Candlenut Body Creme in the Candlenut Spa Body Ritual. It also doubles as a lightweight, non-greasy hair oil for dry ends and scalp care.

The Kartini Body Oil is for anyone who wants visible body luminosity — the kind of glow that comes from genuinely nourished skin rather than shimmer or highlighter. It is especially effective as the finishing step of the Coffee Revival Ritual, where the turmeric and Vitamin C-rich passionfruit oil work on freshly stimulated, exfoliated skin at their maximum depth.
It also pairs beautifully with the Candlenut Body Creme — combine a pump of oil with your Creme in the palm of your hand and apply together for even deeper hydration and a luminous finish that lasts all day.
The oil's lightweight formula makes it exceptional for dry hair ends and scalp — apply any excess oil from your hands to the ends of your hair after body application for non-greasy shine and repair.
Apply a few pumps to legs, shoulders and decolletage after showering, while skin is still warm. Press into skin with both palms rather than rubbing — this technique delivers the oils more evenly and allows faster absorption.
For the Coffee Revival Ritual: apply immediately after the Candlenut Body Creme while skin is still warm from the shower. The stimulation from the Coffee Scrub has already increased circulation — the Kartini oil's brightening actives absorb at their most effective on this freshly treated surface.
For deeper hydration: combine a generous pump of Kartini Body Oil with your Candlenut Body Creme in the palm of your hand, mix together and apply to damp skin. The result is a luminous full-body glow that lasts all day.
Metta's tip: The Kartini oil was named for a princess who believed every woman deserved to feel regal. Apply it as the final step of your ritual with that intention — not rushing to cover skin before dressing, but taking the moment to press this extraordinary blend of Indonesian botanicals into your skin with both hands. The glow it delivers is earned, not synthetic.
Turmeric (Curcuma longa) Root Extract — A millennia-old staple of Indonesian health and beauty treatments and the star brightening ingredient of the Kartini Oil. Featured in nearly every Jamu recipe, turmeric brightens and evens skin tone, reduces inflammation and provides powerful antioxidant protection. A member of the ginger family, it is one of the most studied botanical actives in the world.
Frangipani Flower (Plumeria acutifolia) Extract — The sacred flower of Bali, frangipani moisturises and soothes skin while providing natural UV protection. It supports healthy collagen production, has deep-cleansing and antibacterial properties, and carries an intoxicating natural fragrance that makes this oil something to open the bottle for every single day.
Passion Fruit Seed Oil (Passiflora edulis) — Rich in Vitamins A and C, essential fatty acids, minerals and flavonoids. Naturally anti-inflammatory with potent antioxidant properties that prevent tissue damage from free radicals. Vitamin C content directly supports collagen synthesis and brightening — making this one of the few body oils with a genuine brightening mechanism beyond surface shine.
Moringa Oleifera Seed Oil — Firms and boosts collagen production. Helps prevent wrinkles, slows premature ageing and protects dermal cells from external damage. One of the most nutrient-dense botanical oils in the natural world.
Candlenut Oil (Aleurites moluccana) — The foundational Indonesian oil. Rich in linoleic and linolenic acid, it forms the base of the formula — delivering the omega fatty acids that give every JUARA body product its signature velvety, non-greasy finish.
Coconut Oil (Cocos nucifera) — A staple of Indonesian lifestyle and beauty. Naturally antiseptic and antibacterial with high levels of Vitamins E and A. Provides long-lasting moisture and makes the Kartini oil safe for even the most sensitive skin.
