New York-based skin care manufacturer introduces their first cosmetic product, an anti-aging system containing their signature ingredient, Manuka Honey.
Honey has been used for cosmetic purposes going back as far as Cleopatra, who used to mix it with milk and apply it to her face. Recent studies suggest that Manuka Honey, a premium honey produced in the New Zealand region, has an even greater effect on the skin than other types of honey. It has been discovered that high doses of healing nutrients found in this honey such as B-vitamins, amino acids, antioxidants, minerals and enzymes play a key role in reversing cell damage and aging.
Manuka honey contains antioxidants that heal, repair and nourish the skin, making it look and feel younger, smoother and healthier. The rejuvenating properties found in Manuka Honey help in the regeneration of collagen and elastin. It helps reduce lines and wrinkles and helps the skin retain more moisture so that it doesn't appear to be dry or flaky.
It has also been found that Manuka Honey helps the skin's cell renewal process. This means younger looking skin cells are more readily available. It creates stronger collagen protein which helps keep skin youthful and supple. In addition, Manuka Honey contains natural antiseptic qualities that heal scratches or sores that may be present on the surface of the skin. The antioxidants present in Manuka Honey protect against free radicals in the environment.
As Manuka Honey penetrates deeply into the skin, it nourishes and rejuvenates, making the skin feel and look softer and younger. Free radicals damage collagen fibers responsible for keeping skin firm and tight. Manuka Honey strengthens collagen, destroys the radicals and improves the skins elasticity giving the appearance of younger-looking skin. Manuka Honey is so effective as a natural healing agent, it has even been proven to be effective in treating conditions such as acne, eczema, bacterial and fungal infections.
In addition to Manuka Honey, Honeymark's Anti-Wrinkle Serum contains other valuable anti-aging ingredients, such as Matrixyl, Retinol and Collagen.
Matrixyl contains polypeptides called matrikines, that restructure and repair the skin. They stimulate collagen production by jump-starting the skin repair process, causing significant improvements in elasticity and skin tone. Matrixyl is an amazing breakthrough in skin care, providing a significant anti-wrinkle and skin lifting effect. It actually penetrates the skin to repair and stimulate collagen production, leading to smoother, more radiant skin. After only two months of using Honeymark's Anti-Wrinkle Serum, customers will experience a 45% decrease in wrinkle depth, 250% increase in collagen production and 15% improvement in skin tone.
Retinol is a Vitamin A derivative that repairs and stimulates collagen and elastin, creating firmer, smoother skin. Its small molecular structure allows it to penetrate the outer layers of the skin and repairs the lower layers of the skin where collagen and elastin exist. Retinol also increases skin cell turnover and exfoliation, drastically reducing age spots and blotches on the skin.
Collagen is a major structural protein that makes up 75% of the skin. It stimulates the formation of new collagen fibrils, leading to skin regeneration. At the same time elasticity is improved, helping to smooth wrinkles on the face and neck.
"We have combined the best anti-aging ingredients for a truly unique age reversing system," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "Our Anti-Wrinkle Serum significantly outperforms other higher priced products containing ingredients that are damaging to the skin."

Manuka Honey Products by Honeymark
A New York-based manufacturer of skin care products has developed a unique line of products containing Manuka Honey, which is a natural ingredient from New Zealand that has been found to have extraordinary healing properties.
Honey has long been considered a natural remedy when used topically on the skin. It has now been discovered that a particular type of honey produced by bees that use nectar from the Manuka bush (indigenous to New Zealand) has even more healing benefits than other types of honey. Manuka Honey is now being used to eliminate acne, wrinkles, eczema, muscle and joint pain, bacterial and fungal infections, etc.
Unlike many pharmaceuticals, Manuka Honey has been found to have no negative side effects when used for medicinal purposes. However, like all honey, Manuka Honey is sticky and can be somewhat unmanageable when applied to the skin. Honeymark has eliminated that inconvenience by blending this valuable ingredient into medicated creams and lotions for a much more desirable and user-friendly application.
Manuka Honey is successful in treating such a wide variety of skin conditions because it is antimicrobial, meaning that it can destroy infectious microorganisms including bacterial, viral and fungal microbes. Microscopic analysis has revealed that these infectious microorganisms cannot survive in the presence of Manuka Honey. Therefore, all skin conditions caused by them can be effectively treated by using Manuka Honey. Once the microbes are destroyed, the symptoms are alleviated.
Honeymark has developed products based upon years of research and anecdotal evidence of Manuka Honey being effective in treating certain conditions. In addition to active Manuka Honey, Honeymark products also contain other ingredients that are effective in treating the various conditions that each product is specially formulated for. Below is a list of Honeymark's Manuka Honey products:
Among Manuka Honey's many accolades is its ability to destroy the deadly MRSA bacterium and heal Staph infections. Manuka Honey has the ability to draw moisture out of MRSA bacterial cells, making it impossible for them to survive. MRSA has become impervious to antibiotics by clumping together and forming biofilms that act as a protective layer. However, Manuka Honey interferes with the bacterial cell division cycle that allows MRSA to multiply and form these biofilms, making it a viable treatment solution for MRSA Staph infections.
Manuka Honey's ability to eradicate MRSA is now being considered a major medical breakthrough. Honeymark's First Aid Antiseptic Lotion is the product that is being used to effectively treat MRSA. Their Hand Sanitizing Gel, Antiseptic Spray and Liquid Hand Soap can be used as preventative measures by eliminating bacteria on the skin.
"Manuka Honey is nature's best kept secret," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "Although, consumers are becoming more educated about different treatment options thanks to the Internet. Consumers are also feeling more comfortable with products that contain natural ingredients instead of the laundry list of side effects that come with the use of many pharmaceuticals."
Honeymark plans to unveil new Manuka Honey products in the future. In addition to its line of skin care products, Honeymark also sells Manuka Honey in a jar for individuals who want to take advantage of its healing benefits internally. When taken orally, Manuka Honey is effective in treating stomach ulcers, stomach aches, sore throats, cold and flu symptoms, gastritis, irritable bowl syndrome, acid reflux disease, etc.

Antiseptic Guaranteed to Heal MRSA Staph Infections
Honeymark International has developed a First Aid Antiseptic Lotion containing Active Manuka Honey that is so effective against MRSA and other antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections that the manufacturer has issued a money-back guarantee.
No one is impervious to the resilient super-bug associated with deadly Staph infections. This infection can be acquired at schools, locker rooms, hospitals or basically anywhere within the community and can be fatal if entered into the bloodstream. In the past, doctors were able to treat most serious infections with the use of antibiotics. However, over the past 30 years of antibiotic use (or overuse), some strains of bacteria have mutated and developed a resistance to antibiotics. This has left the medical industry without a solution...until now.
There is a special type of honey that only comes from the New Zealand region that has been found to have extraordinary antibacterial properties not found in other types of honey. Manuka Honey has the ability to draw moisture out of bacterial cells, making it impossible for them to survive. Manuka Honey has also been observed interfering with the bacterial cell division cycle, preventing the infection from spreading and basically stopping it dead in its tracks.
Honeymark International, a New York-based manufacturer of advanced skin care products has developed a line of products containing bio-active Manuka Honey as a natural healing agent. "There is no substance on the face of the planet that is more capable of destroying MRSA and healing Staph infections the way Manuka Honey can," says Frank Buonanotte, Honeymark's CEO. "Unlike antibiotics and other pharmaceuticals, Manuka Honey is a natural ingredient that has been found to have no negative side effects."
Manuka Honey's ability to eradicate MRSA is now being considered a major breakthrough within the medical industry and has gained worldwide recognition. Even doctors who are trained to believe in pharmaceuticals and usually frown upon natural alternatives are beginning to gain faith in the healing powers of Manuka Honey. "It just simply works," says Dr. Kenneth Johnson, a private practitioner on Long Island. "I've seen it with my own eyes. My patients go to the hospital for one thing and have come out with a Staph infection. After a short period of time, using a Manuka Honey-based dressing clears the infection very efficiently, where traditional forms of medicine had failed."
"Our First Aid Antiseptic Lotion is our best selling product, specifically because of its ability to heal MRSA Staph infections," says Buonanotte. "We have a money-back guarantee listed on our website that no one has accessed. It works every time."
Experts are now predicting that new strains of antibiotic-resistant bacteria will begin to emerge in the future. To date, there have been no reports of any bacteria being able to develop a resistance to Manuka Honey and it is expected that there never will be. Bacteria simply cannot survive in the healing environment created by Manuka Honey.
In addition to Honeymark's Manuka Honey-based Antiseptic Lotion, the company has announced that it will be releasing new products that can be used as a preventative measure. Within the next few weeks, Honeymark will be introducing a Hand Sanitizing Gel, Antiseptic Spray and a Liquid Hand Soap, all of which contain Manuka Honey. These products can help to prevent individuals from becoming infected with MRSA.

MRSA Treatment with Manuka Honey
Even though MRSA has become resistant to most antibiotics, it is no match for the powerful antibacterial properties of Manuka Honey.
As data on the prevalence of MRSA continues to mount, hospitals are taking an aggressive approach in preventing the spread of this resilient infection. Statistics indicate that about 2 million patients develop infections while being treated in the hospital every year and 100,000 of them die from the infection.
According to the Center for Disease Control, the proportion of infections that are antimicrobial-resistant has been growing each year. In 1974, MRSA infections accounted for 2% of the total number of staph infections; in 1995 it was 22% and in 2004 it was 63%. In fact, a report issued by the Association for Professionals in Infection Control found that MRSA infections are 8.6 times more prevalent than previous estimates and that the antibiotic-resistant bacteria is found in all wards throughout most hospitals.
Studies show that 30-50% of the population carry MRSA on their bodies. The fact is, MRSA can coexist on the surface of the skin very harmoniously without causing any significant health complications. It's only when the bacteria penetrates the skin by way of a wound or puncture where it can become harmful.
Despite the grim reality of MRSA infecting our communities, there is a viable treatment solution. A special type of honey found in New Zealand and certain parts of Australia has proven to be effective in destroying this resilient bacterium. It's not so much the bees in this region that are special, rather than the flowers that grow on the Manuka bush. These flowers produce a unique nectar that contains extraordinary antibacterial properties. The bees use this nectar to create what has become known as Manuka Honey.
It has been discovered that Manuka Honey contains healing properties not found in other types of honey. Manuka Honey destroys MRSA by drawing moisture out of the bacterial cell, making it impossible for them to survive. This is very similar to what happens when you pour salt on a slug.
Honey is one of the only substances in the world that does not expire. Food spoil when bacteria begins to form on it. However, bacteria cannot survive in honey. Honey discovered in ancient Egyptian tombs that were preserved for over 4,000 years has even been found to be suitable for consumption. The absence of bacteria in honey is mostly due to the presence of hydrogen peroxide. In fact, before antibiotics were invented, honey was commonly used for medical purposes, particularly for dressing wounds.
A rating system administered by the Active Manuka Honey Association in New Zealand calculates the potency of Manuka Honey on a scale from 0-30. It is generally accepted that Manuka Honey with a UMF rating of 10 or higher is considered active and suitable for therapeutic use. The higher the UMF rating, the higher the antibacterial activity. However, patients have reported sensitivity to Manuka Honey with extraordinarily high UMF ratings (i.e. UMF 20-30). Even UMF 10 Manuka Honey is potent enough to kill MRSA and heal Staph infections.
When examined under a microscope, it has been discovered that MRSA cells form a septum down the middle, dividing the cell into two separate cells. This happens every 30 minutes. However, Manuka Honey has been found to interfere with the cell division cycle, stopping it dead in its tracks. This has now been considered a major breakthrough in the medical industry.
In summation, active Manuka Honey is one of the only natural substances in the world that is capable of efficiently destroying MRSA and other antibiotic-resistant bacteria. As a result, Manuka Honey is now being used as a main ingredient in antiseptic products. One New York-based manufacturer of skin care products is taking advantage of the natural antimicrobial properties of Manuka Honey. Honeymark has developed a First Aid Antiseptic Lotion that is effective in treatment MRSA and other bacterial infections.
"Our First Aid Antiseptic Lotion is our best selling product, specifically because of its ability to kill MRSA and heal Staph infections," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "With experts predicting that new antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria will inevitably emerge in the future, Manuka Honey will be considered an extremely valuable resource." As a natural ingredient, Manuka Honey has been found to have no negative side effects when used for medicinal purposes.

Manuka Honey Available in the USA
This amazing natural resource from New Zealand has become increasingly more popular as of late. As a result, it is now being utilized as a main ingredient in skin care products manufactured in the U.S.
Manuka Honey's international notoriety stems from its ability to treat a wide spectrum of health conditions both internally and topically on the skin. When taken orally, Manuka Honey has been proven to be effective in treating conditions such as acid reflux disease, gastritis, irritable bowel syndrome, stomach ulcers, gum disease, etc. Manuka Honey
has also been effective in treating a wide range of skin conditions such as eczema, acne, infected wounds, burns, ringworm, etc.
Manuka Honey is considered to be antimicrobial, which means it is effective in destroying microorganisms that are responsible for causing bacterial, viral and fungal infections. Since most health conditions are caused by these unwanted microbes, Manuka Honey's ability to destroy them has attracted the attention of doctors and other medical professionals around the world. Manuka Honey is even efficacious enough to eradicate MRSA and other antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria. Since antibiotics have proven to be relatively ineffective in treating Staph infections, the use of Manuka Honey is now being considered a viable treatment alternative. This is being recognized as a major breakthrough in the medical industry.
In addition to its medicinal qualities, Manuka Honey is also drawing attention to itself as a cosmetic ingredient. Manuka Honey has a hydrating and rejuvenating effect on the skin. It also has the ability to increases skin elasticity and collagen production. As a result, Manuka Honey has become recognized as an excellent anti-wrinkle solution. It has other impressive skin care applications in terms of a cleansing agent for clearing acne and other unsightly blemishes. Its antibacterial properties eliminate infections that cause red marks, boils and pimples.
It's not the bees in New Zealand that are so special, rather than the flowers where they collect the nectar to make the honey. The Manuka bush grows beautiful white and pink flowers that contain this unique nectar with unusually potent healing properties. Honeybees use this nectar to produce Manuka Honey. Bee farmers in New Zealand put their hives within close proximity to Manuka trees so that the bees only use its nectar to manufacture their honey.
Unfortunately, Manuka Honey is somewhat hard to come by. Shipping costs from New Zealand to the U.S. can be more than the honey itself. However, a New York-based company called Honeymark has developed a line of skin care products containing Manuka Honey as a main ingredient. Their creams and lotions also takes the sticky mess out of applying Manuka Honey directly to the skin.
"In many cases, active Manuka Honey has proven to be more effective than traditional forms of medicine," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "At a time when consumers are becoming more confident in the use of natural and cosmeceutical products, Manuka Honey offers the peace of mind of having no negative side effects. Even medical doctors who are usually more in favor of pharmaceuticals have become impress with the amazing healing benefits of Manuka Honey."

Skin Care and Manuka Honey
Manuka Honey has proven to be the most effective natural ingredient in skin care products for treating a wide range of conditions from infected wounds to acne.
Manuka Honey is a form of mono-floral honey which is produced by bees that feed on the flowers that grow on the Manuka plant (also known as the tea tree or Leptospermum Scoparium) which is indigenous to New Zealand. A similar honey is reported to be made by Australian bees which feed on the Jelly Bush (also known as Leptospermum Polygalifolium).
Manuka Honey has antibacterial and anti-fungal activities that are effective in treating a variety of different conditions such as infected wounds, acne, eczema, ringworm, etc. Manuka Honey is believed to magnify the properties of the tea tree by synergistically adding the naturally antibacterial properties inherent in honey.
According to a number of reported studies, many types of honey contain low levels of hydrogen peroxide, enough to provide an antimicrobial effect without causing tissue damage. However, the hydrogen peroxide present in standard honey is rapidly decomposed into water and oxygen upon contact with catalase, which is an enzyme that is present in blood and wound fluid. This rapid decomposition of hydrogen peroxide makes the antimicrobial activity of ordinary honey short-lived. Although, Manuka Honey has been found to show a stronger antimicrobial effect than other types of honey that is stable and maintains its healing properties even in the presence of catalase. Manuka Honey is also non-toxic to tissue, thereby giving it a distinct advantage over many other topical antiseptics.
There are a number of interesting theories as to the active components of Leptospermum Scoparium. It has been reported that Leptospermum Scoparium contains monoterpenes at low levels and sesquiterpene hydrocarbons at higher levesl including those possessing cubebene/copaene, elemene, gurjunene/aromadendrene, farnesene/caryophyllene, selinene, calamenene and cadinene skeletons. Also reported as being present in Leptospermum Scoparium have been oxygenated sesquiterpenes and triketones. The antimicrobial activity of the Leptospermum Scoparium is believed by some to arise from the triketone fractions.
Because of its impressive medicinal qualities, Manuka Honey is now being used as a main ingredient in skin care products. One U.S. manufacturer has been capitalizing on the healing benefits of Manuka Honey. Honeymark International is a New York-based skin care company that imports Manuka Honey from New Zealand and blends it into their products. Their proprietary formulations take the sticky mess out of applying honey directly to the skin. Honeymark products are effective in treating skin ulcers, MRSA/Staph infections, fungal infections, dermatitis, etc.
"Manuka Honey is a natural healer that has recently gained worldwide notoriety, particularly because of its ability to eradicate MRSA and heal Staph infections," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "No other skin care ingredient is as effective in healing bacterial and fungal infections."
Manuka Honey is an all-natural, organic ingredient that has been found to have no negative side effects. For more information or to purchase Manuka Honey skin care products, call 1-866-427-7329 or visit www.HoneymarkProducts.com. Honeymark products are not tested on animals.

Manuka Honey has antibacterial and anti-fungal activities that are effective in treating a variety of different conditions such as infected wounds, acne, eczema, ringworm, etc. Manuka Honey is believed to magnify the properties of the tea tree by synergistically adding the naturally antibacterial properties inherent in honey.
According to a number of reported studies, many types of honey contain low levels of hydrogen peroxide, enough to provide an antimicrobial effect without causing tissue damage. However, the hydrogen peroxide present in standard honey is rapidly decomposed into water and oxygen upon contact with catalase, which is an enzyme that is present in blood and wound fluid. This rapid decomposition of hydrogen peroxide makes the antimicrobial activity of ordinary honey short-lived. Although, Manuka Honey has been found to show a stronger antimicrobial effect than other types of honey that is stable and maintains its healing properties even in the presence of catalase. Manuka Honey is also non-toxic to tissue, thereby giving it a distinct advantage over many other topical antiseptics.
There are a number of interesting theories as to the active components of Leptospermum Scoparium. It has been reported that Leptospermum Scoparium contains monoterpenes at low levels and sesquiterpene hydrocarbons at higher levesl including those possessing cubebene/copaene, elemene, gurjunene/aromadendrene, farnesene/caryophyllene, selinene, calamenene and cadinene skeletons. Also reported as being present in Leptospermum Scoparium have been oxygenated sesquiterpenes and triketones. The antimicrobial activity of the Leptospermum Scoparium is believed by some to arise from the triketone fractions.
Because of its impressive medicinal qualities, Manuka Honey is now being used as a main ingredient in skin care products. One U.S. manufacturer has been capitalizing on the healing benefits of Manuka Honey. Honeymark International is a New York-based skin care company that imports Manuka Honey from New Zealand and blends it into their products. Their proprietary formulations take the sticky mess out of applying honey directly to the skin. Honeymark products are effective in treating skin ulcers, MRSA/Staph infections, fungal infections, dermatitis, etc.
"Manuka Honey is a natural healer that has recently gained worldwide notoriety, particularly because of its ability to eradicate MRSA and heal Staph infections," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "No other skin care ingredient is as effective in healing bacterial and fungal infections."
Manuka Honey is an all-natural, organic ingredient that has been found to have no negative side effects. For more information or to purchase Manuka Honey skin care products, call 1-866-427-7329 or visit www.HoneymarkProducts.com. Honeymark products are not tested on animals.

Prevention and Treatment of MRSA with Manuka Honey
In many randomized controlled trials, scientists have concluded that Manuka Honey is capable of killing MRSA and healing Staph infections.
MRSA related Staph infections are the cause of concern in many hospitals across the world. It is not an uncommon occurrence that a patient is admitted into a hospital with one ailment and leaves with a Staph infection. Although, hospital patients aren't the only ones concerned about MRSA. Doctors and other medical professionals have grown increasingly more fearful that they may be exposed to this deadly bacteria.
MRSA is a mutated form of bacteria that has developed a resistance to antibiotics. If gone untreated, a MRSA-Staph infection can be fatal. Amidst all the hysteria, scientists are beginning to recognize that a particular type of honey, known as Manuka Honey, is actually effective against this notoriously resilient superbug.
Researchers have examined MRSA that has come in contact with Manuka Honey and have determined that MRSA cannot survive in the healing environment created by Manuka Honey. MRSA is a bacterium that grows and divides into 2 similar cells every half hour. It divides by forming a wall across the middle of the cell, which then splits in half to create 2 new cells. Studies have shown that Manuka Honey interferes with the cell cycle of MRSA by affecting the separation of new cells, so that cells unable to complete division are disabled at that point in the cell cycle.
All types of honey contain hydrogen peroxide which is a known antiseptic and disinfectant. However, scientists have discovered that there is an additional antibacterial component in Manuka Honey, making it much more effective for therapeutic use. This additional component, known as UMF, is unaffected by enzymes that dilutes the effectiveness of regular honey. It remains active when used as a wound dressing and diffuses deeper into skin tissues.
In addition to its unparalleled antibacterial properties, Manuka Honey is also considered to be antimicrobial and, therefore, capable of treating both bacterial and fungal infections. Another advantage to utilizing Manuka Honey for medical purposes is that its anti-inflammatory properties help to reduce pain in damaged tissue.
Manuka Honey is made by bees that use the nectar from the flower that grows on the Manuka bush, which is indigenous to New Zealand. It's this unique nectar that provides Manuka Honey with it's impressive healing qualities. Since Manuka Honey comes from New Zealand, it can be somewhat hard to come by. However, a New York-based manufacturer of skin care products called Honeymark has developed a line of Manuka Honey products that is available in the U.S.
"Manuka Honey is natures best kept secret," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "Although, its ability to conquer the battle against MRSA superbugs is projecting Manuka Honey into the lime light." Unlike some traditional forms of medicine, Manuka Honey has been found to have no negative side effects when used for medical purposes.
Honeymark's First Aid Antiseptic Lotion contains Active Manuka Honey and is their best selling product, specifically because of its ability to heal Staph infections. For more information or to purchase Manuka Honey products, call 1-866-427-7329 or visit www.HoneymarkProducts.com.
