If you ' re like most people you think honey tastes really good to eat on a piece of bread or toast. However, honey and particularly a special active manuka honey variety, which is only available from New Zealand, has some great properties to help your skins condition.

Here are 4 good reasons for using active manuka honey as a moisturizer.

1. Active manuka honey when used topically in a moisturizer helps your skins cell renewal process. It also contributes to form stronger collagen cells, a protein along with elastin responsible for your tissues strength and elasticity.

2. It contains special enzymes that give it amazing antibacterial properties and a great healing ability for skin, due to its Unique Manuka Factor ( UMF ).

3. Scientific research has also found that active manuka honey from New Zealand has much higher levels of antioxidants than other types of honey. They are able to penetrate deep into the skin to nourish, moisturize and rejuvenate it and fight free radical damage.

4. Active manuka honey is effective at healing blemishes like acne and even more serious skin conditions like psoriasis and eczema.

You get manuka honey - - naturally enough from a manuka bush. But, what you might not know is the manuka bush from New Zealand has an extremely high antibacterial UMF level. Only a level above 10 is given a rating referred to as " active ".

After carefully researching the market for near on 12 months, the line of anti - aging skin care creams I decided on, and now choose to use daily includes active manuka honey in most of their products, which includes their night cream, eye contour gel and deep hydrating and cleansing masks.

So there you have it - - if you don ' t already use an anti - aging skin care product that includes honey as a moisturizer ingredient, maybe you should give one a try.
