‘It is the nicest moisturiser I have ever used’
Shoppers have left high praise for the brand Melora, which has launched a collection of skincare essentials formulated with high grade 525+ New Zealand Manuka honey. One buyer, aged 66, said one of the products is so good that she does not ‘stress over (her) skin drying out or (her) wrinkles looking so deep’ – and what’s more, the brand is offering up to 25% off.
The 3 in 1 Manuka bundle from Melora is currently available in the sale for £38.98, down from £53.97, making each product cost £12.99. If shoppers were to buy the three products individually in the sale, it would cost them £42.92.
The bundle includes the Manuka Moisturiser (£15.19, down from £18.99), Purifying Manuka Face Wash (£12.74, down from £14.99) and Restorative Manuka Balm (£14.99, down from £19.99). The face wash has been described as a ‘gentle yet effective cleanser’ that removes impurities, balances oil production, and leaves skin feeling hydrated and radiant.
Infused with Manuka honey, bilberry seed oil, and aloe vera, the cleanser is said to deliver deep nourishment while maintaining the skin’s natural barrier. The brand says it is ideal for all skin types, including sensitive and blemish-prone skin.
The moisturiser, on the other hand, is described as a deeply hydrating hand and body cream infused with Manuka honey, shea butter, and coconut oil. Suitable for all skin types, this is said to ‘nourish, protect, and restore dry skin’, and it should be applied onto clean skin.

Last but not least, there’s the ‘rich, multi-purpose balm’, which has been infused with Manuka honey, vitamin-rich oils, and natural waxes to deliver deep moisturisation. It can be applied on the lips, hands and cuticles, to the dry ends of hair and other body parts or ‘rough patches’, such as the elbows, knees or heels.
For those with a higher budget, there’s the Antipodes Anti-Aging Bundle from LookFantastic, priced at £62. This is an antioxidant-rich skincare set featuring a mask and an eye cream, designed to hydrate and visibly plump. The brand says the face mask is centred around New Zealand Manuka Honey, with the formula designed to hydrate and nourish the skin.
For something cheaper, Holland and Barrett has the Dr Organic Manuka Honey Rescue Cream (50ml), which is currently available for £8.74, down from £12.49. This is described as an ‘intensive, hypoallergenic emollient’ which has been formulated around a complex bioactive blend of Dr Organic Manuka Honey to nourish and restore dry or sensitive skin. It is said to leave skin intensely moisturised, instantly restored and visibly healthier, according to the listing.
Returning to the 3 in 1 Manuka bundle from Melora, shoppers have left rave reviews. One said: “Was surprised at how (much) better my skin feels, (it’s) silky smooth and hydrated after using for a few days. Always considered these things to be a gimmick, but it works.”
A second person said: “Service was good, product excellent as per usual. Would not consider using any other moisturiser.”
Others deducted stars, with one saying: “I like how it makes my face feel so soft and clean. Does feel slightly tight but I use hypotonic acid after and my skin feels fantastic!!!!”
Overall, though, most were pleased with their purchase. Someone else said: “I have been using Melora manuka honey face moisturiser for a while and keep buying it because it is the nicest moisturiser I have ever used. It smells lovely, sinks into my skin so easily, yet still leaves it moisturised all day long without it being greasy.
“I am sure this moisturiser has had a very positive effect on my skin because it looks so much nicer now and, at age 66, I don’t stress over my skin drying out or my wrinkles looking so deep. I have, however, been using a drop of retinol in with the moisturiser before going to bed over the past five months. My skin looks much healthier now. I will definitely continue using Melora products.”
