Frequently Asked Questions

What does UMF™ mean?

UMF™ stands for Unique Manuka Factor. It is an independent quality-assurance system for genuine New Zealand Manuka honey and evaluates key markers associated with potency, authenticity, shelf life, and freshness.

What makes Manuka honey different from regular honey?

Genuine Manuka honey comes from nectar collected from New Zealand’s native Manuka plant. UMF™ certification helps verify that the honey is authentic and meets defined quality standards.

Which Honey for Healing® product should I choose?

Wound Cream: everyday first-aid skin care for minor cuts, scrapes, burns, blisters, shaving irritation, dryness, and tattoo aftercare.

Reviver: intensive daily moisture for dry, stressed, or sensitive-feeling skin on the face, hands, and body.

Lip Balm: lightweight everyday moisture for dry or uncomfortable lips.

Is the Wound Cream sticky?

No. It was designed to absorb quickly and avoid the sticky feel associated with applying honey directly to skin.

How do I start the Wound Cream pump?

Press down on the pump a few times to start the honey flowing. Once primed, use a small amount and apply a thin layer to clean skin.

Can I use Honey for Healing® products every day?

Reviver and Lip Balm are designed for everyday use. Wound Cream can be reapplied as needed for everyday first-aid skin care. Always follow the product label and seek professional medical advice for serious, deep, infected, or slow-healing wounds.
