Distilled in small, intentional batches on a remote New Zealand island, this Mānuka essential oil is a living expression of the wild. Sourced from ethically wildcrafted leaves and twigs, and freshly distilled every few weeks for founders Gabrielle and Luke, each drop carries the medicine of place: untamed, pure, and potent. A revered healer in both traditional and modern herbal care, Mānuka oil is profoundly antibacterial, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory. Reach for it to calm blemishes, soothe rashes, ease inflammation, and cleanse minor cuts...or blend it into masks and oils to amplify your skincare rituals with grounded botanical power. In the air, it purifies and uplifts, making it a beautiful addition to any diffuser when the body or spirit needs clearing. Its scent is both grounding and awakening - herbal, fresh, spicy, and sweet - evoking misty coastal groves and the ancient intelligence of the land. A beloved companion for those who walk the slow path of plant-led healing.

100% pure — distilled from the leaves and twigs of the New Zealand Mānuka Tree
100% natural disinfectant; highly anti-bacterial and anti-fungal to cleanse cuts and scrapes. Reduces inflammation, blemishes and acne. Add one to two drops to a teaspoon of Activist Manuka Honey for a 100% natural face mask. Add one to two drops to your face oil and apply to skin.
Founded by husband and wife team Luke Harwood and Gabrielle Mirkin, Activist is a Mānuka honey company built upon their shared passion for the earth and natural products, which can be traced to their childhoods in New Zealand. Activist is a family-owned and operated company, with Luke and Gabrielle’s involvement being far-reaching: from establishing relationships with their beekeepers (they even go surfing together!) to product innovation to building direct relationships with customers. Luke and Gabrielle’s goal is to build a sustainable business while nurturing and celebrating the craft of beekeeping and the precious resource of Mānuka Honey in native New Zealand; taking a truly authentic story and product to the world.
