Our History

Kalola Botanicals is a Collingwood-based health and wellness company founded in 2006 as a modern-day apothecary; our products are medicinally focused and remedy-based. Kalola Botanical products are thoughtfully created and fueled by the healing power of botanicals, essential oils and herbs. At The Body Bar by The Body Bar is a Collingwood-based health and wellness company founded in 2006 as a modern-day apothecary; We started with natural skin care while dealing with sensitive skin ourselves. Using ingredients like cucumber, aloe vera, chamomile and green tea extract that calm and nourish the skin while not interrupting the skin's natural pH balance. We found so many other people dealing with a similar issue: finding a genuinely gentle but effective natural skincare line that has integrity; we stand behind the fact that if the product is not for you, you can bring it back. We never want to be one of those products collecting dust in the cabinet because it's not a right fit for your skin. We've been there ourselves, so we understand the importance of being confident in the product you are using.

We then moved into body care and aromatherapy with naturally focused, remedy-based products. We thoughtfully create and infuse our products with botanicals, essential oils and herbs that soothe and enhance your skin's natural appearance. While our aromatherapy touches on different ailments, from calming stress & anxiety to soothing pain and inflammation and so much more.
At The Body Bar, we seek a balance between functionality and indulgence throughout our entire product lines. We love to dream, develop and hand-assemble exquisite products that bring delight with every use. Our products range from whimsical, nostalgic, practical, and giftable, but all include only the healthiest 99.6% natural and naturally-derived ingredients.
