Manuka Oil |
Many people mistakenly believe that manuka oil is derived from manuka honey but it actually comes from the Myrtacaea plant family. Manuka oil not only offers antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits but also provides protection against UV radiation. Studies have shown that it helps reduce UVB-induced inflammation and mitigates skin damage caused by UV radiation, including wrinkles, skin thickening and the loss of collagen.
