Is Manuka oil good for skin?

Whether you’re fighting fine lines or soothing small skin irritations, make sure Manuka essential oil stands front and center in your bathroom cabinet. It’s moisturizing, calming, and cleansing. Here are some ways to benefit from this trifecta of talent.

The biggest difference? Their scents. Tea Tree is strong, herbaceous, and slightly medicinal. Manuka has similar qualities but features a warmer, softer smell with a hint of floral. And guess what? Like Eucalyptus, Tea Tree and Manuka have a third cousin: Australian Ericifolia. Commonly known as “Lavender Tea Tree,” this essential oil combines the benefits of Tea Tree with the soothing nature of Lavender.
