We believe that the most efficacious source of ingredients for skincare is derived from nature — which in turn supports the mind, body, and soul on a holistic level. As an Australian company, we’re within arms reach of some phenomenal natural ingredients. One we always find ourself enamored in is Manuka Honey—derived from the Manuka tree (Leptospermum scoparium)— a delicious food that deeply nourishes the skin.

 

You’ll find Manuka Honey featured in our Flawless Face Mask. A few reasons why we’re smitten:

 

  • Encourages tissue regeneration: Manuka honey is known to enhance both tissue regeneration and wound healing. When used topically, it can be effective in treating skin ailments such as eczema and dermatitis.[1] The sugar found honey is also known for keeping wounds or sensitive areas moist, creating more space for healing.

 

  • Rich in antibacterial properties: due to the glyoxal and methylglyoxal found in the floral source of the Manuka tree, Manuka honey is known for its antibacterial nature. [2] The effectiveness in killing pathogens, supported by hydrogen peroxide found in the honey, mellows out acne and ensures pores don’t become infected.

 

  • Deliciously anti-ageing: Manuka Honey has a naturally acidic pH that balances your skin. Paired with antioxidants, humectat properties (that attract and retain moisture), and stimulating new tissue growth, honey steps in to cleanse skin from free radicals.[3]

 

  • Anti-inflammatory: When applied to skin, Manuka Honey hs been shown to reduce inflammation—relieving redness and irritation. [4]
