With Mother's Day approaching on 15 March, wellness brand Melora has reduced its Restorative Manuka Balm to £14.99 in a limited-time sale. The balm, normally priced at £19.99, forms part of the brand’s Manuka Skincare collection, which has up to 25% off.
The formulation contains premium-grade 525+ New Zealand Manuka honey, which the company says matches medical-grade strength. Manuka honey is known for its antibacterial and antioxidant properties, helping to strengthen the skin's protective barrier, prevent moisture loss, and soothe visible redness and irritation.
Reporter Bethan Shufflebotham, who tested the balm, praised its versatility as a lip treatment, cuticle conditioner, dry skin solution, and hair-taming product. She noted that it softens with fingertip warmth, offers instant comfort without tacky residue, and has a short ingredients list of natural oils, Manuka honey, and vitamin E.
Customer reviews on the Melora website are largely positive, with one buyer calling it the 'best moisturiser for eczema' after four years of trying different products. Another customer with severe eczema said the balm calmed and healed breakouts faster than other creams, and lightened old pigmented scars.
Some users noted a dislike for the fragrance, but many highlighted its effectiveness for sensitive skin and eczema. Shoppers can also consider Balmonds Skin Salvation Intensive Moisturising Balm 30ml at Boots for £9.
