What is Manuka Honey?
Manuka honey, a premium ingredient with a loyal and growing fanbase, is made with the nectar of the manuka plant. This has, unfortunately, led to an increase in the number of counterfeit products on the market. To ensure authenticity, the Active Manuka Honey Association has created a quality trademark and grading system to identify natural, unadulterated manuka honey: the Unique Manuka Factor, or UMF.
Active Manuka Honey Cream
This cream combines pure manuka honey (with a UMF of 15+) with a range of skin-loving ingredients to make a premium-grade cream. This natural formula uses a unique blend of essential oils and shea butter combined with the honey for increased absorption, preventing dry skin and irritation. The unique formulation can also help support the skin's immunity against some common complaints, such as eczema, Seborrheic Dermatitis, pimples, scratches and insect bites.
Ingredients
Along with the key ingredient of active manuka honey, this natural cream contains a range of other great ingredients that all work together to create a hydrating and luxurious cream. Active Manuka Honey Cream also contains:
Jojoba Oil:
Jojoba oil is a common ingredient in natural skincare with hydrating benefits that can help with dryness and irritation as well as irritated and chapped skin.
Macadamia Nut Oil:
Macadamia oil is said to contain high levels of monounsaturated fatty acids, including Oleic Acid (Omega 9) which is said to be moisturising and softening and Linoleic Acid (Omega 6), which can help to maintain the skin's barrier function.
Shea Butter:
Made from the nut of the African shea tree, shea butter is a lauded ingredient within the skincare industry. Most commonly added to provide a smooth texture and classic scent, shea butter helps moisturise the skin as well while tackling common complaints such as dryness, blemishes, burns and bites.
Evening Primrose Oil:
Native to areas within Northern and Eastern America, Evening Primrose oil is made from the seed of the Evening Primrose plant. Traditionally, this plant can help combat eczema and acne, as it contains good fatty acids which are said to aid inflammation.
How To Use
The Active Manuka Honey Cream is easy to use; simply apply the cream to the desired area of the skin as required. Before first use, we suggest a patch test on a small area.
