NEW Nourish + Hydrate Manuka Balm

A New Chapter In Skin Nourishment

We've had to say goodbye to our Organic Manuka Skin Soothing Cream due to multiple factors outside of our control, including having to leave our past manufacturer. When we couldn’t recreate the exact original formula with our new manufacturer, we upgraded our ingredients to bring you the next generation of gentle, effective care for sensitive skin.

This ultra-gentle balm is still powered by rich, raw Manuka honey, but now it’s boosted with dermatologist-preferred sunflower oil to support the skin barrier and camellia seed oil for deeper hydration. We’ve also added Lactobacillus ferment, a natural probiotic to keep your skin’s microbiome healthy and balanced.

Our balm melts into dry, sensitive, or eczema-prone skin, delivering lasting moisture and relief—without burning or stinging.

And with 100% post-consumer recycled packaging, every jar supports both your skin and the planet.

What’s Different (and Why It Matters)

• More Cream Per Jar - Our new producer can fill each jar with more cream than before. What was previously 2oz and 4oz is now 2.34oz and 
  4.23oz.
  

• Organic Virgin Cold Pressed High Oleic Sunflower Oil (replaces Organic Olive Oil) – Dermatologist-recommended for eczema-prone skin, sunflower oil is clinically shown to boost ceramides and strengthen the skin barrier—all without the irritation some experience from olive oil.
  

• Organic Virgin Cold Pressed Camellia Seed Oil (replaces Grapeseed Oil) – Lightweight, yet deeply hydrating, camellia (aka tea seed) oil is rich in vitamin E and polyphenols, helping calm inflammation and restore skin health with every application.

• Even Stronger Manuka Honey – Sourced from a UMF®-certified supplier, we now use 607 MGO / 16+ NPN Manuka Honey, third-party tested for authenticity and packed with antimicrobial, skin-healing power. In order to keep the active benefits of our Manuka, we only barely warm our formula to harmoniously blend the ingredients, always careful not to overheat and destroy the goodness Manuka provides.

• Lactobacillus Ferment – A natural probiotic extract to help support a balanced skin microbiome and reduce flare-ups caused by bacteria imbalance. Bonus, helps to preserve the formula and prevent baddies from growing in the jar.

• Removed Manuka Essential Oil - With our new more powerful Manuka Honey and the probiotic addition, we decided to omit the Manuka Oil since essential oils can be irritating for some. 

• Recycled Sustainable Packaging – Our gray jar is made from 100% post-consumer recycled plastic with zero added dyes (and naturally occurring specs) and sealed with biodegradable paper pulp seals and made tamper proof with recyclable sticker seals. A cleaner choice for your skin and the planet.
