Our Story

Made With Love onVancouver Island

A small family team making pure emu oil skincare, in small batches, on Vancouver Island.

The Hanson family

Meet the Makers

Nourishing Skin Since 2001

Willow Springs is a small, family-run skincare maker based in the Comox Valley on Vancouver Island, British Columbia. Every product we make is built around one remarkable ingredient — 100% pure, AEA Certified, fully refined Grade A emu oil.

Our story blends the traditional Aboriginal Australian use of emu oil with modern Canadian craftsmanship. We source our emu oil to that AEA Certified Fully Refined standard, then handcraft every cream and lotion ourselves, in small batches, right here on Vancouver Island.

“If you're mindful about what goes in your body, shouldn't you be equally passionate about what goes on it?”

— Koya & Stan Hanson, founders
