When Kimo Bentley found out that her newborn was diagnosed with the skin condition eczema she had nowhere to turn. The doctors prescribed her daughter with a steroid based cream that had no guarantee of success but did have a guarantee of side effects.

Kimo began to scour the internet and libraries for all natural remedies that could control her daughters eczema without any harmful or long term effect. She soon developed a soap with all natural ingredients and used this to wash her baby, and within a short period of time her daughters skin began to clear up! Kimo became known around town as the "soap lady" and she would give her soap away for free to people who were going through the same experience with their children. From this all natural soap the Kimo Bentley Brand was born.
