Honey can be enjoyed in all its forms:in baking, in herbal tea... And why not in cosmetics. Honey yes, but not just any honey, a honey from New Zealand, Manuka honey, which has proven to be extremely effective for my skin problems! Yes, honey on the skin may seem very strange at first sight, but in the end it turns out to be very effective, especially for healing scars, nourishing the skin and cleaning it up.

Manuka honey is a unique honey in the world that comes to us from New Zealand. It is obtained by bees foraging on the flowers of Manuka, or New Zealand tea-tree. This shrub is a cousin of the famous "tea tree" which is much better known here. Manuka grows wild in New Zealand and Australia.
