How Manuka Honey Supports Skin & Eye Health
Eczema
Eczema is often caused by a weakened skin barrier, leading to irritation, itching, and moisture loss. Manuka honey is rich in anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, helping to reduce irritation, support skin healing, and prevent bacterial infections that can worsen eczema symptoms. Its natural humectant properties lock in moisture, providing relief for dry, flaky skin.
Rosacea
Rosacea is a chronic skin condition characterized by redness, inflammation, and sensitivity. Manuka honey's anti-inflammatory effects help calm the skin, while its antibacterial properties may reduce triggers that contribute to flare-ups. The moisturizing benefits of honey also aid in hydrating and soothing irritated skin, helping to restore balance to compromised skin barriers.
Seborrheic Dermatitis
Seborrheic dermatitis is linked to an overgrowth of yeast and excess oil production, leading to red, scaly patches and irritation. Manuka honey’s antifungal and antibacterial properties help to regulate microbial overgrowth, while its soothing and hydrating effects relieve itching and discomfort. By maintaining a healthy skin pH, it helps prevent flare-ups and promotes a healthier skin environment.
Dry Eye & Eyelid Conditions
Many individuals with dry eye disease also experience eyelid inflammation (blepharitis) or meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). Bacterial overgrowth on the eyelids can contribute to these conditions, leading to irritation, redness, and poor tear quality. Manuka honey’s natural antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effects help reduce bacterial colonization, soothe irritation, and improve overall eyelid hygiene.
