What are the benefits of manuka honey for the skin?
Honey has been used in beauty rituals and medicines for hundreds of years due to its ability to heal and moisturise the skin in addition to its antiseptic properties.
In more recent years, honey has been heralded to treat and soothe almost all skin complaints from acne and inflammation to wrinkles and dryness. Manuka Honey, in particular, which comes from bees which pollinate Manuka trees, is now a key ingredient in many beauty products especially in skin and body care.
Known for its high antioxidant content, Manuka Honey not only treats but also protects the skin, keeping your complexion healthy and radiant.
This wonderful ingredient is also an integral ingredient in many anti-ageing skincare products as it is a humectant. Drawing vital moisture from the surrounding environment into the skin, Manuka Honey helps to upkeep the natural radiance of your complexion whilst soothing and softening your skin.
