What does Manuka Honey do for the skin?

Derived from a plant native to New Zealand, Manuka honey offers several benefits due to its unique properties:

  • Antibacterial and Antimicrobial Properties: Manuka honey is known for its strong antibacterial and antimicrobial activity. This makes it effective in treating acne by killing bacteria that can cause inflammation and skin imperfections.
  • Anti-Inflammatory Action: It has anti-inflammatory properties that can soothe redness and irritation. This makes it beneficial for calming irritated skin.
  • Moisturizing Effects: Manuka honey is a natural humectant, meaning it helps retain moisture in the skin. This hydration can improve skin texture, making it softer and smoother.
  • Antioxidant Properties: It contains antioxidants that can protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals. This protection may help delay signs of aging like wrinkles and fine lines.
  • Promoting Wound Healing: Its healing properties are particularly effective for wound care. Manuka honey can stimulate tissue regeneration, enhance wound healing, and decrease the possibility of scarring.
