wash | clarifying honey wash for face
Although gentle, Wash is a powerhouse for blasting bacteria, cleaning out pores, while hydrating the skin.
Although we preach the praises of using plant oils to cleanse the skin rather than soapy cleansers, Wash gets cleaning at a whole new level.
Originally formulated to help with acne, the ingredients in Wash have been shown to help those with dull aging skin as well by refreshing the skin from years of build-up and clogging ingredients. This is a must-have for radiant skin.
Details
Extended Product Description
Manuka Honey is found in New Zealand where the bees get their nectar from the Melaleuca (or Tea Tree) plant. That means the honey carries the anti-bacterial properties found in Tea Tree Oil, more than 75 times the amount compared to regular raw honey. Manuka honey has been tested to attack the strep and staph bacteria which are known to be resistant to many antibiotics. It's that powerful.
Because of the anti-inflammatory properties, it helps to reduce redness while healing congested or inflamed skin such as with acne and eczema. This is a powerful force against inflamed or irritated skin. The amino acids it contains help slough off dead skin cells, keeping pores cleaned out and skin refreshed.
Struggle with adult acne? Your skin will love Wash!
How To Use
How To Use Wash
Since Wash is made of enzyme-rich Manuka honey and essential oils, it's thick and goes on like a soothing mask. Simply massage onto damp (not wet) skin, leave on while you finish showering, then rinse off. Apply to warm damp skin in the evening, as well. Ahhhh!
Note: Given the potent enzyme- and nutrient-richness of Raw New Zeeland Manuka Honey and it's ability to blast away inflammation, we have chosen to switch from the raw local (to Bloom) honey to this amazing stuff. The difference is incredible. The pricing reflects that, sadly.
Ingredients
Superfood Ingredients

raw new zealand manuka honey
Honey is more than a yummy addition to your morning coffee or tea routine. Manuka Honey is found in New Zealand where the bees get their nectar from the Melaleuca (or Tea Tree) plant. That means the honey carries the anti-bacterial properties found in Tea Tree Oil, more than 75 times the amount compared to regular raw honey. Manuka honey has been tested to attack the strep and staph bacteria which are known to be resistant to many antibiotics. It's that powerful. The antioxidants in honey help make the skin look younger, smooth and hydrated. The enzymes in raw Manuka Honey clarify skin and keep pores clear while increasing healing and tissue regeneration. The combination of raw Manuka Honey, grapefruit and tea tree oil is one of the most healing ways to wash acne prone skin. Gluconic acid, a mild alpha hydroxy acid found in honey, has been tested to brighten complexion, even skin tone and lighten scars and age spots.
tea tree oil
Tea tree has so many anti-viral, anti-candida and anti-fungal properties which is great news for those with acne since acne is often caused by an over-growth of yeast in the body. One study found tea tree oil to be just as effective as benzoyl peroxide but without the negative side effects like redness and irritation. Tea tree oil is used to treat minor wounds, encourage healing, and prevent infection. This makes it an essential part of your own first aid kit! Because tea tree oil can kill bacteria, applying topical tea tree oil to acne lesions has been thought to destroy Propionibacterium acnes, the skin-dwelling bacteria involved in the development of acne. Can you see why we are so excited to offer tea tree oil in Wash?
pink grapefruit essential oil
Grapefruit can protect skin from UV damage. Since most visible signs of skin aging are the direct result of sun damage, this is one more layer of defense to add to your skin-care regimen. Grapefruit is rich in anti oxidants. Grapefruit is known to be a purifier of congested, oily and acne prone skin by cleaning out dirt, oil, & dead skin cells from pores while also having anti-bacterial properties to help combat problematic bacteria on the skin which causes the skin to be irritated. It also helps to keep natural ingredients fresh & helps slow oxidation of oils.
There you go. That's the list. The entire list and nothing but the list.
