How Manuka Honey Enhances Your Baby’s Skincare Regimen
Share
Manuka Honey, derived from the Leptospermum scoparium plant, is often associated with New Zealand, but Australia, particularly Tasmania, also produces this remarkable honey. It is renowned for its high levels of methylglyoxal (GMO), which is integral to its healing and antibacterial properties. The potency of Manuka Honey is directly related to its GMO content—higher levels, such as GMO 450, offer more pronounced benefits, though they come at a higher cost. Even Manuka Honey with GMO levels between 30 and 100 provides valuable everyday benefits at a more accessible price.
Manuka Honey is not only a natural sweetener but a powerful ally in skincare. Here’s how it can enhance your baby’s skincare routine:
-
Deep Hydration: Manuka Honey excels in retaining moisture due to its unique composition. It helps the skin absorb and maintain hydration in its deeper layers, ensuring your baby’s skin remains soft and well-moisturised.
-
Cleansing and Brightening: The natural enzymes in Manuka Honey keep pores clean and promote a brighter complexion. Its antibacterial properties prevent bacterial growth that can disrupt skin balance, while its ability to remove dead skin cells reveals a fresher, healthier appearance.
-
Skin Revitalisation: With its skin-lightening and anti-inflammatory effects, Manuka Honey helps revitalise your baby’s skin. Gentle massage with products containing this honey enhances circulation and restores the skin’s natural glow.
-
Soothing Redness and Irritation: Manuka Honey’s antibacterial and antifungal properties soothe redness and irritation. This makes it an excellent choice for calming sensitive skin and alleviating discomfort.
-
Protective Antioxidants: Beyond hydration, Manuka Honey’s antioxidants protect the skin from environmental damage and oxidative stress, ensuring your baby’s skin stays resilient and healthy.
-
Eczema Relief: Manuka Honey has shown promise in managing eczema, offering a natural approach to soothe and relieve symptoms.
While Manuka Honey is highly beneficial for external use, it is not recommended for ingestion by babies under 12 months due to potential risks. However, it is perfectly safe when used in skincare products, as it is not ingested.
