Pure, Powerful, Natural Ingredients

Discover the potent ingredients that make Miracle Manuka so effective in soothing and healing your skin.

Mānuka Leaf Oil

Manuka is a native New Zealand tree, world-famous for producing manuka honey. But its leaf oil is even rarer—distilled in limited supply from wild manuka trees found only in New Zealand. Used by the Māori for centuries, this oil is rich in triketones, compounds proven to kill 99.99% of bacteria like Staphylococcus aureus, a major eczema trigger. That makes it one of nature’s most powerful remedies for calming irritation, reducing redness, and protecting sensitive skin.

Kānuka Leaf Oil

Closely related to manuka but even more scarce, kānuka leaf oil is known as one of Mother Nature’s strongest anti-inflammatories. Traditionally used in Māori healing, it has been clinically shown to reduce eczema symptoms by easing itch, redness, and irritation. Because wild kānuka grows only in select regions of New Zealand, its oil is a rare and precious ingredient—found in over 90% of our formulations for its ability to soothe even the most sensitive skin.

Marshmallow Root Extract

This ancient botanical has been treasured for centuries as a natural skin soother. Rich in natural mucilage, marshmallow root extract forms a hydrating barrier that locks in moisture while calming dryness and irritation. Though gentle, it’s highly effective—helping restore comfort to dry, itchy, or inflamed skin. You’ll find this ingredient in most of our products because it’s a trusted, time-honored healer that supports healthy skin recovery.

Rosemary Oil

Rosemary oil is a potent natural extract with antibacterial and anti-inflammatory benefits, making it ideal for eczema-prone skin. It helps reduce redness, calm irritation, and prevent infection in cracked or broken areas. Its antioxidant properties also support skin healing and barrier repair. You’ll find this powerhouse ingredient in select formulations designed for irritated skin.

Palmarosa Oil

Palmarosa oil is a soothing botanical known for its hydrating and skin-repairing properties — perfect for eczema care. Naturally rich in geraniol, it helps retain moisture, reduce itchiness, and support skin regeneration. Its gentle antibacterial qualities also help keep broken or inflamed areas clean, promoting faster healing without irritation. This calming oil is a key part of our formulation for restoring dry, distressed skin.

Coconut Oil

Virgin coconut oil is deeply moisturizing and packed with lauric acid, which naturally fights harmful bacteria like Staph. aureus—commonly found on eczema-affected skin. It helps soothe itching, lock in moisture, and support the skin’s natural barrier without clogging pores. This nourishing oil is a core ingredient in our most replenishing balms.

How to use: Apply generously to clean skin daily, especially after bathing, to lock in hydration and reinforce your skin’s natural barrier. Use morning and night for best results.

About the Company

This is how it all began...

Great Barrier Island in New Zealand’s Hauraki Gulf is like no other island. Formed from the remnants of ancient volcanoes, it has a warm oceanic climate and rich soil. It’s covered in a unique ecosystem that shelters itself from sea winds and absorbs the abundant minerals in the earth. A beautiful yet sturdy layer of thriving growth.

Your skin is much the same. It’s the great barrier between you and the outside world. It protects you. When it is well you are well.

Manuka and kanuka are two trees found growing on the island’s exposed slopes. We call them the protectors because their tough canopy shelters smaller plants and birds below. They smell incredible and stay green all year round. The resilience of these trees comes from organic compounds in their foliage, which exist in uniquely high concentrations solely on Great Barrier Island.

When applied on human skin these compounds keep doing their jobs: fighting off invasive microbes, repairing inner wear and tear and protecting the outer layer. Their only function is to keep your skin safe and flourishing, no matter what skin type you have. Many scientific studies have proven the efficacy of manuka and kanuka extracts, and research continues today.

Great Barrier is a small island. Its plants are scarce so we only harvest a limited amount each year. However, due to their unique potency, we are able to produce skincare with up to triple industry standard active ingredient percentage with no artificial concentration.

Great Barrier’s botanicals know how to protect themselves, and they can protect you too. Sven’s Island skincare brings you their raw effectiveness straight from the source. We add nothing apart from what our efficient, thriving ecosystem provides.
