% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

Spring is (almost) here, and I am changing everything out, from my wardrobe-Goodbye sweaters and boots!-to my beauty routine. The cooler months can be harsh to the skin, so I up my game during the switch to Springtime with Manuka Honey products from PRI. 
​
​Pacific Resources International has been delivering Manuka Honey beauty and health products to Americans for over 25 years. Manuka is the gold standard for honey and is produced exclusively in New Zealand from bees and flowers that are environmentally protected. Enjoy these safe and soothing products every day and feel great using them!

I am a HUGE fan of PRI, and of Manuka Honey in general. Domestic honey has been in the news lately, and not for very good reasons. Thankfully, I don’t have to worry about my Manuka Honey, since it comes directly from beautiful New Zealand, and is completely pure and clean. 

Recently, I was sent a fabulous assortment of PRI products that will help me look and feel my best, naturally! I would love to tell you a bit about each of these products, so keep reading for more info. Trust me, you will absolutely love what they have to offer! ​

PRI’s Manuka Honey Lip Balm is the newest addition to body care collection. The Manuka Honey Lip Balm is uniquely formulated with the healing power of Manuka Honey and Organic Ingredients to protect, restore and hydrate your lips.

MANUKA HONEY HAND CREAM 
Exotic Botanicals combined with New Zealand Manuka Honey to enrich and nourish the skin.
Comes in 3 refreshing scents:

• Cool Citrus
• Coconut and Lime
• Simply Manuka

​PRI’s Manuka Honey and New Zealand Sea Salt Soap is a handcrafted, moisturizing soap brings together the healing power of Manuka Honey, nourishing Botanical Oils and all natural New Zealand solar dried sea salt to bring out the best in your skin. 

 

PRI Manuka Oil from New Zealand is very gentle in its nature. Our Manuka Oil can be used straight from the bottle for its antibacterial properties. A natural antiseptic suitable for the whole family (and pets) to use.

PRI Manuka Oil (100% Pure Leptospermum Scoparium) is distilled from the abundant Manuka forests that blanket the pristine New Zealand coastline. It is wild crafted as a renewing sustainable industry and has been used for generations by the indigenous Maori people.

This Manuka Oil is ideal for most users as it has quite low levels of Pinenes and Myrcene but high levels of Flavesone, Isoleptospermone and Leptospermone. This combination gives a high level of antimicrobial activity, particularly against gram positive organisms such as staphylococcus and streptococcus.

It also has a wide range of anti-fungal activity. The difference from its Australian cousin Tea Tree Oil is that is has a pleasant aroma and will not burn or irritate the skin. Therapeutic action Manuka Oil has been shown to be effective when used as an antibacterial agent, anti-fungal & an anti-inflammatory.

Manuka Oil has been shown to aid in the treatment of the following:

Abrasions- skin, abscess, acne, bed sores, blisters, boils, burns, carbuncles, cold sores, cracked skin, dandruff, dermatitis, ears and body-pierced infections, eczema, nail & fungal infections, insect bites, lice, ringworm, rinitis skin-oily, sun burn, tinea, tonsillitis.

Suspended in an almond oil base, this highly purified essential oil has a unique floral note and high levels of active compounds to use for sore joints and inflammation. It is used often as a massage oil for lower back pain in pregnant women.

Pacific Resources only uses the High Quality “East Cape Chemotype” Manuka Oil. 

​Pacific Resources International natural propolis toothpaste combines two proven natural oral-hygiene products, Propolis and Tea Tree Oil. In a unique family-favorite formulation with a mild liquorice flavor. This Toothpaste has a refreshing low-foaming action that helps maintain healthy teeth and gums and leaves teeth feeling clean and bright.

 

 

Manuka honey is sourced from the Manuka tree (Leptospermum scoparium) native to New Zealand. During the heat of the early summer it produces a profusion of flowers a-buzz with bees busily collecting nectar to make our unique Manuka Honey - the flavour of our country.

Manuka Honey is the only honey found so far that exhibits non-peroxide activity. This is thought to be due to Methylglyoxal, a unique compound found within Manuka Honey. This makes the honey a powerful digestive aid, assisting with allergies and immune defense. It is a potent anti-bacterial agent when used topically for minor wounds and burns. It is also heat tolerant, enabling it to reach your digestive system without losing any of its beneficial properties.
​
Pacific Resources sources honey directly from New Zealand bee keepers, who take pride in producing high-quality products. Our Manuka honey is collected with care from native Manuka trees in New Zealand’s remote, pollution-free forests to produce the highest quality Manuka honey. Special techniques have been used to ensure that this Manuka Honey reaches you in optimum condition, just as nature intended.

Our honey is cool processed; this means the honey is filtered to extract bee particles or bits of honey comb that have fallen in the honey. The honey is 100% raw.

Manuka Honey 5+ is cool processed (raw) and independently tested with an MG rating of 73mg/kg. In order to obtain a 5+ grading, the honey it needs to have an MG (methylglyoxal) rating of at least 60mg/kg. 

Take 2-3 teaspoonful’s 3 times a day. Best if taken 30 minutes before every meal.

BioGro Certified Flaky Sea Salt
Marlborough Flaky Sea Salt is evaporated by an age old process producing unique flake shaped crystals. These are prized by the Epicurean palate for their flavor, soft texture and versatility when used in fine cuisine. The Flaky Sea Salt has a unique three dimensional crystal. Which is produced by being very slowly evaporated in an open pan.
​
It is a very light textured salt with a delicate flavor. The taste is created by the unique crystal size and shape of the Marlborough sea salt flakes. Excellent for sprinkling on top of foods and its light texture means it “sticks” better. Perfect for salads, baking, BBQ’d meats and even French fries!
