Verified Ingredients
Integrity begins at the source.

One bottle = one native planted — restoring Aotearoa, one tree at a time.
Independently Analysed Mānuka Oil
⸻
Our Mānuka essential oil is independently analysed prior to formulation to verify authenticity and chemical profile.
The batch used in our serum was tested by Analytical Research Laboratory (ARL), Southern Cross University using GC-FID analysis.
This testing confirms botanical identity and active compound composition of the raw oil.

Why This Matters
⸻
Mānuka oil is valued for its naturally occurring β-triketones — bioactive compounds unique to certain New Zealand chemotypes.
Independent GC-FID testing confirms:
• Authentic Leptospermum scoparium origin
• Full terpene fingerprint profile
• No evidence of dilution or adulteration
• Consistent chemical markers in the analysed batch
We prioritise transparency so you know exactly what goes into your skin.
