Manuka honey is harvested from bees that only visit the manuka flower, native to New Zealand and Australia. It is a mono-floral honey, which means that the bees only pollinate from the manuka flowers, making its honey very potent, with much higher anti-bacterial compounds than regular honey.

Manuka honey is graded by Unique Manuka Factor (UMF), which measures its anti-bacterial potency (the higher the number the better).

The many benefits of manuka honey include: cleanses, lightens and brightens skin, treats inflammation, makes skin glow, clears acne and reduces scars, reduces itchiness, moisturises dry skin, delays wrinkles and balances skin’s pH.
