You’ve probably heard about the incredible benefits of Manuka honey, especially in connection with skincare and anti-aging. At Madame Gabriela, we harness the power of this natural wonder to create lipsticks that not only beautify but also nourish and protect your lips.
Manuka honey is renowned for its high levels of methylglyoxal (MGO), an antibacterial compound that sets it apart from regular honey. This magic ingredient does wonders for your skin and lips, promoting collagen production and providing deep hydration. But it holds another powerful secret only now being understood...
The Link Between Manuka Honey and Collagen
Collagen plays a crucial role in maintaining the youthful appearance of your skin and lips. It provides structure and support, contributing to firmness and elasticity. Unfortunately, collagen levels decrease with age, leading to wrinkles, dryness, and loss of elasticity.
Manuka honey comes to the rescue with its unique properties that boost collagen production. The high levels of MGO in Manuka honey increase the molecular weight of collagen, suggesting better collagen structure in skin cells. This means firmer, more elastic lips that look and feel youthful. And our formula is packed full of highly potent Manuka Honey full with a high MGO.
Collagen is composed of amino acids, and Manuka honey supports the regeneration of these amino acids, thus enhancing collagen production. The amino acids in Manuka honey group together to form a triple helix shape, combining with other collagen molecules in the skin to create a robust mesh-like structure. By regenerating and protecting collagen, Manuka honey ensures your lips stay firm, hydrated, and beautiful.
How Manuka Honey Benefits Your Lips
Manuka honey is rich in natural amino acids and nutrients that promote tissue regeneration and protect collagen. This natural powerhouse helps to maintain the structural integrity of your lips, ensuring they remain plump and youthful.
In addition to boosting collagen, Manuka honey acts as a strong humectant, drawing moisture to the skin and keeping your lips hydrated. Its natural antibacterial properties help heal chapped lips and prevent further damage, making it an ideal ingredient for maintaining lip health.
How to Use Manuka Honey for Maximum Benefit
To maximize the benefits of Manuka honey in our lipsticks, apply them directly to clean lips. For an extra boost of hydration and repair, use our lipsticks as part of your nighttime skincare routine by applying a generous layer before bed. Let the Manuka honey work overnight to rejuvenate your lips.
