Manuka Oil
  • Antioxidant 
  • Antimicrobial 
  • Anti Inflammatory 
  • Anti-viral

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.
