Honey is a natural ingredient rich in sugars, vitamins, enzymes, and minerals, and has been used on the skin since ancient times for both beauty and healing. Research shows that honey has powerful antibacterial and antioxidant properties, making it highly effective in protecting the skin and supporting its repair. It helps treat wounds, burns, and various skin conditions such as dandruff, psoriasis, and diaper rash. In skincare, honey acts as a natural moisturiser and softener, keeping the skin smooth, hydrated, and youthful. It also helps balance the skin’s pH and prevents infections.

With thousands of varieties of medicinal herbs, fruit trees, and native flowering species, the Max Biocare Research Parks provide a steady supply of nectar, pollen, and blossoms year-round - 365 days a year. The unique and distinct therapeutic composition of MBC Herbal Honey is shaped by this environment: the diverse botanical compounds from Salvias and our extensive collection of medicinal, fruiting, and native flowering plants.

This special honey has undergone, and will continue to undergo, extensive testing and validation to confirm its properties and benefits. The result is a specialised, polyfloral honey especially suited for skincare - one that is sustainable, ethical, and naturally health-promoting.

MBc Herbal Honey Sustainability story

Sustainability of MBc Herbal Honey

Bees complete the loop in the circular economy by ensuring that all aspects of our meticulous processes are interconnected. Not only do the bees produce honey and other valuable ingredients, but they also play a vital role in sustaining our plantations and local biodiversity through pollination, improvement of soil health and preventing diseases.

Our MBc Herbal Honey is produced by bee colonies at our Research Parks in Victoria, where they forage on a diverse selection of medicinal herb varieties. The principle of a circular economy is embedded in everything we do at the Research Parks. It is here that Max Biocare’s scientists have developed and implemented a unique plantation program designed to provide food for bees, ingredients for research and innovation, and a space for community outreach-ultimately contributing to a sustainable future.
