Manuka is a member of the Myrtaceae family, which also includes tea tree and Melaleuca quinquenervia. Native to Australia and New Zealand, this shrub-like tree attracts pollinators, including honeybees that produce an aromatic honey from its flowers.
Manuka essential oil offers several skin care benefits when applied topically. In addition, it cleanses and neutralizes unwanted odors when diffused or used in home cleaning solutions, making it a versatile addition to every household.
