Why Choose Mānuka Honey for Face Care

Mānuka honey is a natural ingredient used in skincare for its humectant, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory properties. As a humectant, it draws moisture into the skin and helps retain it through the day. Its anti-inflammatory action calms redness and irritation, which makes it suited to skin that is dry, sensitive, or prone to eczema and minor breakouts.

Mānuka honey is produced by bees in New Zealand that pollinate the native Leptospermum scoparium bush, also known as the Mānuka bush. It is distinguished from regular honey by its concentration of methylglyoxal (MGO), the compound responsible for its antibacterial strength. Melora's Mānuka skincare range is formulated with Mānuka honey sourced from New Zealand's East Cape, a region known for producing honey with high MGO content.

The Melora Mānuka Skincare Range

The range is built around three products that work together as a daily face care routine. The Mānuka Moisturiser Cream is a daily face cream formulated to nourish, restore, and hydrate. The Purifying Mānuka Face Wash is a gentle daily cleanser that removes impurities without stripping the skin's natural barrier. The Restorative Mānuka Balm provides deeper hydration and skin repair, suitable for use overnight or on patches of dry or irritated skin. The 3-in-1 Bundle brings all three together at a saving.

Who Mānuka Skincare Suits

Melora's Mānuka skincare range is suitable for dry skin, sensitive skin, and eczema-prone skin. It is designed for daily use and the three products can be used together as a morning and evening routine. As with any new skincare product, a patch test on the inner forearm is recommended before first use.
