When we started GOOMBAY LABS, we chose that name for a reason. Goombay is the heartbeat of our islands—it’s the drum, the dance, and the spirit of making something beautiful out of life’s raw materials. Labs represents our commitment to the "better." We aren’t just mixing oils; we are researching the most effective, simple ways to care for skin that lives in our Bahamian humidity and heat.

​​​

Why do we do this? Because we’ve noticed that busy Bahamians are some of the hardest-working people on earth, but we often forget to stop and catch ourselves. When you take sixty seconds to light a GOOMBAY LABS candle, or three minutes to wash your face with our artisan soap, you are doing more than just "using a product." You are claiming a boundary. You are telling the world, "The work can wait for a moment. I am taking care of me."

​

Every time you engage with a GOOMBAY LABS ritual, we want you to ask yourself one question: #NowHowDoYouFeel? Did that scent shift your mood? Does your skin feel a little lighter? Does your mind feel a little clearer? Taking a moment for yourself isn't selfish—it's necessary. You can’t keep the rhythm of the drum going if the skin of the drum is worn thin. We’re here to help you stay protected, stay glowing, and most importantly, stay grounded.​ We are GOOMBAY LABS, where Simple Rituals equal a Better Day.

 

We are a small, Bahamian, family-owned direct-to-consumer manufacturer of simple skincare products and better scented candles. Our mission is simple: To craft better simple skincare and better scented candles for busy people using no-nonsense formulations, ingredients designed by nature, and processes supported by science.​
