Manuka honey has great benefits for skin:

• Aids in wound healing

• Antiviral, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties

• Provides antioxidants

Why It’s Effective

OY-L Face Wash nourishes and calms skin leaving it dewy, not tight or stripped. It feels different than most cleansers because skin retains moisture after use.

Healing, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties of manuka honey make Oy-l Face Wash a great choice for acne prone skin. Also perfect for dry or sensitive skin.

Oy-l’s simple but impactful ingredient list is 100% natural:

• Clay exfoliates and cleanses skin.

• Hemp seed oil, grapeseed oil, and meadowfoam seed oil provide vitamins and fatty acids.

• Lime essential oil provides antiseptic, astringent, and restorative properties.

• Lavender and litsea cubea essential oils contribute to a refreshing and uplifting smell.

Why It’s Safe

Oy-l is free of toxic ingredients including those commonly found in cleansers

• Parabens – artificial preservatives associated with endocrine disruption, cancer, developmental and reproductive toxicity.

• Phenoxyethanol – skin, eye, or lung irritant. In 2008, the FDA warned consumers not to use Mommy’s Bliss Nipple cream because it contained phenoxyethanol which was harmful to infants. The statement indicated phenoxyethanol could “depress the central nervous system and may cause vomiting and diarrhea, which can lead to dehydration in infants.” Phenoxyethanol remains a controversial ingredient and even “green” beauty products continue to use it as a preservative.

• PEGs (polyethylene glycols) – penetration enhancers that may be contaminated with 1,4-dioxane and ethylene oxide which are associated with reproductive, developmental, and endocrine effects, cancer, and DNA damage.

• Fragrance – mix of fragrance and chemicals associated with allergies, dermatitis, respiratory distress and potential effects on the reproductive system. Can contain unnamed toxic ingredients like phthalates which disrupt the endocrine system
