Top 10 Shopping in Penang, Malaysia

A factory retail outlet for our artisan made natural products including soap, shampoo, body wash, face wash, and face oil. The Indochine Natural story started in the 18th century. European traders flocked to the Straits of Malacca and Penang Island. They sought exotic treasures including cinnamon, clove, and ginger. These were used not just to flavor, but to heal. Today, we carry on this tradition. We use the natural, evocative fragrances of the historic spice route. Our Australian co-founder and Chief Formulator, Dr. Mike Thair, leads product development. He creates bespoke Indochine Natural aromas that are unique and distinctive. We use only natural ingredients. Not your usual slick retail outlet. You may see oils being delivered, orders being packed. Our artisans are in and out from the production facility. Chat with them and find out more about how we make our products. Take home a unique Made-in-Penang gift including soap, shampoo, body wash, or face oil.
