Hydrating Face Moisturizer & Body Cream with Manuka Honey Cream - Organic Face Moisturizer & Body Lotion for Extremely Dry Skin - for Dry & Itchy Skin, Rosacea & Eczema Prone Skin (Original, 2oz)

Manuka Organics has created the finest moisturizer I have ever had the pleasure to use. I first purchased the 4oz container of Honeyskin Organics Aloe Vera + Manuka Honey in December of 2016 and I recently purchased my second container. The first one would have lasted longer had I used it only on my face and neck but I used it as a body lotion too so it was gone pretty quickly.As someone who has lived as long as I have and tried as many skin care products, I have learned that value is not equal to purchase price. Some of the best items I have were purchased at the dollar store! On the spectrum of cost, Honeyskin is certainly not indicative of it's value, no not at all! I have purchased moisturizers that cost in excess of $100,00 that can not compare to Honeyskin. HS is not oily, it absorbs quickly but if you use too much (which I am tempted to do) it will leave a tiny white residue, so it is best to start with less. When I first put my hands in it felt like a very rich whipped creme. I wanted to fill the tub with it and soak in it. It is impossible to accurately describe the delicious texture of this amazing creme.HS has quite a recipe of nourishing products including Manuka Oil. Some folks seemed to believe that there was not enough Manuka Oil in the product to justify either the name or the price. Over the years I have found that too much salt, sugar, garlic or whatever ingredient spoils the recipe. If I feel my skin needs a little healing I dab a bit of Manuka essential oils on my hand and apply it first. I have only done it once, it is just not needed. More is less with HS.My skin care regime is very simple but is has never failed me, I have never used anything but a warm washcloth to clean my face, and I use Braggs Apple Cider Vinegar (with the mother) as a toner. I also use the ACV as a toner on my body and hair before I get out of the shower. The odor dissipates quickly. ACV seems to stimulate hair growth and it has an antiseptic quality which is wonderful for those who tend to get folliculitis. ACV has nearly the same ph of the body so it is not harmful to the skin. ACV has many medicinal qualities, and is useful for a myriad of other things as well, so do not fear using it. After I wash my face, I apply the ACV and when it dries I apply a little bit of Hyaluronic Acid gel which absorbs quickly and then I apply HS.I deliberately waited to write a review until I had used a full 4 oz container of HS despite the pleas from the manufacturer for a quick review because I have learned that impressions change over a period of time and then I feel as though I have been dishonest and need to update my original review.Now I am perfectly comfortable to say that HS is an uncommon value as well as an uncommon moisturizer. However, one must consider that although we are the same (human) we are not the same because our genetic ladder determines our characteristics. So if you have acne I have no idea how this creme will affect you. The ACV would be good though. I use Braggs with the mother and Amazon has it. By the way, in case you are wondering - the "mother" consists of a white cloudy substance that are protein chains and they are not harmful at all. I can not in good conscience list a bunch of miraculous things that HS has done for me, other than keeping my skin moisturized and healthy. I was blessed with a beautiful complexion and was rarely troubled with pimples ( don't you just hate that word). I am a senior, senior citizen with few complaints about my skin. One thing I do have is Angular Cheilitis which is terrible!! It sounds fairly benign but it causes the corners of the mouth to bleed, the skin around my mouth gets dry and flaky and the skin in the affected area takes on a grayish cast which can not be covered by make up. My lips get dry and chapped and peel everyday until they bleed and cracks appear from the lips into the skin. It drives me nuts! Nothing the Dr gave me seemed to help, but eventually I discovered Vitamin C in large doses does heal it. Right now I take about 3,000 MGs daily to keep it under control and I use one of the battery powered skin care systems once a month or so to exfoliate my skin to maintain it's luster and I use a very mild exfoliating gel. Occasionally I use some combination of essential oils as the exfoliator and my skin loves it. (Please do not buy the expensive skin care brushes, unless you have lots of money). A final thing is that I have never smoked. Tobacco is lethal to beautiful skin so don't start using it or if you have, try to quit.So there you have it folks, I hope you find this review to be useful and should you purchase HS, it is a wonderful product, and I am surprised it does not cost far more than than the purchase price. It is made of all kinds of good things that provides nourishment and moisture without leaving a greasy residue, and your face will reward you many times over.I did not accept compensation in product or money to give a positive review of this product. Any thoughts or claims I have made are purely my own as evidenced by my nonsense. Seriously, this is good stuff! The manufacturer of HS is eager to provide information on the uses of HS and answer the questions of consumers, because they want us to have a good experience with it.The product was shipped by the manufacturer, yet it arrived on or near the expected date, packaged appropriately, and the product is yummy! You know I thought they should have named it something different than Honeyskin because that makes me think of sticky stuff and ants approaching. Think I could talk them into naming it Yummyskin?Update 8/25/17: I have been using this amazing cream for eight months now. In my earlier review I mentioned that I had Angular Chellitis (AC) but I thought vitamin C I take was responsible for the improvement in the AC. I shared my last order of Honeyskin with my sister and I ran out more quickly than I thought I would. About a week after being without it I noticed that the cracks, peeling, gray looking skin, and general appearance around my mouth and chin had returned. I realize now that the Honeyskin plays a vital role in keeping the AC under control so today I am ordering the 8oz size cream. I am also pleased to share with you that my sister believes that this cream is the best she has ever used. Honeyskin is a wonderfully affordable moisturizer and combined with it's healing attributes it is an amazing bargain. NJoy~*~

I have super dry and super sensitive skin, and I've been battling with severe dermatitis condition on my face for 12 years. I've been to so many dermatologists and they couldn't figure it out how to cure it. Well, they couldn't figure out if it was rosacea or dermatitis, urcateria or what ever. Basically, no diagnosis. I also broke out in rashes when I ate wrong food. If I was exposed to dust, perfume, or even onions, I would break out. I walked around with the face of a bee hive and it sure has been miserable. It could be food allergies, or sensitivities, which can trace back to GI issues and auto-immune conditions.I've tried so many so-called sensitive skin products but none of them worked. Doctors gave me prednisone 50mg to suppress the inflammation on my face, then mometazone, which is a steroid cream, which really did a lot of damages to my body. Yet, my skin rashes wouldn't calm down. I thought I'd have to live with it for the rest of my life.Then I thought I'd give some organic products a try. I found Honeyskin cream here and purchased it, even though it was pricey. Well, lo and behold, the 2nd day, I noticed the rashes were going away. After several days, I am much more confident that this will work for me. The only thing is, the cream is light and it is not thick enough for my super dry skin. So I contacted Honeyskin, and they told me to stick with it longer and I'll see improvement. It's been probably a week now, and the dryness is somewhat less. But some spots are still dry, so I use Burt's bees lip balm on those dry spots.I gave 5 stars, even though my dryness is not solved, just because this is the first product that took away my rashes. My skin complexion is looking better too. After spending more than $8000 to deal with this issue (I have other medical conditions that could be causing the skin issues) , I can finally breathe. I am hoping to find improvement in dryness soon. I would recommend this product for people who have similar issues as mine. It is very gentle and effective.

This cream has a thick consistency that melts into the skin like butter. As someone that is currently dealing with eczema on my hands, this works really great with my dry hands. Its feels very soothing and gentle on my eczema. It absorbs into skin quickly. My skin thoroughly moisturized without feeling greasy. I noticed the lines on my hand started to slowly disappear and was really helpful in brightening my skin pigmentation on my hands and arms with continued use.Overall I really enjoyed using this cream. It’s become a winter staple in my routine. You get 4 fl oz for 24 dollars, which isn’t a lot but a little goes a long way, so the jar will last for some time. I like that it doesn’t have a strong scent, it actually smells quite natural. I think this would be great if you have dry sensitive skin.
