Discover the benefits of Manuka Oil
What is Manuka Oil?
Manuka Oil is extracted from the leaves and branches of the Leptospermum scoparium plant, native to New Zealand. Unlike Manuka honey, which comes from nectar, Manuka Oil is steam-distilled from the plant itself, resulting in a highly concentrated essential oil.
For generations, Māori communities have traditionally used Manuka Oil for skin care and protection. Today, modern research continues to explore and confirm many of these traditional applications.
Why Manuka Oil is different compared to other oils?
Not all essential oils are the same. Manuka Oil stands out due to its unique composition, particularly its high triketone content, compounds associated with antifungal and antimicrobial activity.
Compared to commonly used oils such as Tea Tree Oil, Manuka Oil is:
- Milder on sensitive skin
- Less irritating for long-term use
- Naturally fresh in scent rather than overpowering
These characteristics make Manuka Oil especially suitable for ongoing skin and nail care.
