Manuka oil to the rescue

With an office in Grey Lynn and 100 per cent New Zealand owned, the team at ManukaRx creates sustainable, natural skincare and health products using as their hero ingredient; East Cape mānuka oil.

Mānuka oil is one of the newest, strongest and most powerful essential oils, and is known as a herbal alternative to harsh antibacterial ingredients. It works holistically to help alleviate many common skin issues and has potent healing properties, as well as all necessary science to back it up. incredible antibacterial and antimicrobial properties.

Research has confirmed that East Cape mānuka oil is an incredible thousand times more effective than the more well-known mānuka honey, and 20-30 times stronger than regular Australian tea tree oil against gram-positive bacteria (the bad skin bacteria). We also love the fact that ManukaRx is sustainably harvested from the wild and from plantations on the East Cape of New Zealand, supporting the local community who harvest the leaves of the mānuka plant and steam distil them to create truly powerful skincare.
