Skin Benefits

• Antibacterial & microbiome-supportive: Mānuka oil contains unique triketones like leptospermone, flavesone, and isoleptospermone, which exhibit strong antimicrobial action. These help balance the skin’s microbiome and reduce acne-causing bacteria without disrupting healthy flora.

• Supports barrier function: While it doesn’t directly rebuild the lipid barrier like ceramides or oils, it helps create a clean, low-inflammation environment for the skin to repair and maintain its protective barrier.

• Wound-healing: Mānuka oil may stimulate skin regeneration and soothe irritation, helping speed the recovery of abrasions, insect bites, and other minor skin injuries.

Muscle & Joint Benefits

• Anti-inflammatory: Reduces swelling, stiffness, and discomfort in sore muscles and joints.

• Antimicrobial for massage: Its ability to reduce microbial load makes it ideal for massage on skin prone to inflammation or infection.

Synergy

Pairs beautifully with kawakawa, amplifying the formula’s ability to calm irritation, reduce microbial overload, and restore balance after physical or emotional stress.
