SWEET HONEY BALM
Made with certified bio-active Manuka honey is wonderful for skin.
According to an article in Natural News Manuka Honey, from the flower of the Tea Tree Bush in New Zealand, contains unique properties that make it an amazing "superfood" for your skin. But not all Manuka Honey is equal.
The Waikato University in New Zealand first identified the bio-activity in Manuka, there are several ways to rate therapeutic levels, UMF was the first. Not all Manuka Honey is equal, look for a certified rating: UMF, MGO, TAA, NPA, OMA etc. there are several excellent rating systems backed by science.
Alki Organix uses only Manuka with high bio-activity levels and a certification method with strong scientific backing.
Also included:
Sunflower oil, an excellent source for beta-carotene, is very emollient, with a light texture that is easily absorbed by skin.
Grape Seed oil is another light oil, rich in antioxidants, that penetrates quickly. The antioxidants in Grape Seed oil, proanthocyanidins, are said to be 50 times stronger than that of Vitamin E. Grape seed is also great for skin types that don’t absorb oils easily.
Mango Butter, with its incredible emollient and regenerative properties, is traditionally used for skin softening with moisturizing.
Coconut oil is an amazing oil because it’s very high in Vitamin E. It is an excellent skin moisturizer and softener that creates a wonderful protective barrier as well.
Witch hazel, also known as winterbloom or spotted alder, a flowering shrub common in North America. Witch Hazel tannins help lock in moisture helping skin to stay soft and supple.
Sweet Honey balm is another of my favorites! Try it! I think you’ll love how soft & sweet your skin can be!
