The sweet power of honey in animal supplements and cosmetics

Honey has been valued for centuries in human nutrition and skincare for its natural healing, moisturizing, and antibacterial properties. Today, this golden ingredient is also gaining a permanent place in the world of pet supplements and cosmetics. At Nutriliq, we believe in the power of nature. That’s why we use honey in pet supplements and cosmetics, an ingredient that offers real benefits both inside and out.

Honey in supplements: more than just flavor

When honey is used in animal feed supplements, it does much more than just improve flavor. Thanks to its natural composition, honey is an excellent choice for liquids and chews, among other things.

The main benefits of honey in supplements:

  • Natural energy source: Honey contains easily digestible sugars that are useful for active animals.

  • Support of the immune system: Thanks to antibacterial and antioxidant properties.

  • Soothing for throat and digestion: Ideal for animals with cough, irritation or mild digestive complaints.

  • Natural carrier for herbal extracts: Honey can help improve absorption and stability of active ingredients.

We use carefully selected honey that is safe for use on dogs, cats, horses and other animals.

Honey in cosmetics: gentle, natural and effective

The skin benefits of honey are well-documented in human cosmetics. Animals can also benefit. Honey is a gentle yet powerful ingredient that is ideal for sensitive, dry, or irritated skin.

Applications include:

  • Paw balms and nose ointment: Honey helps soften and repair cracked or dry skin.

  • Skin-restoring ointments: Often combined with ingredients such as calendula or propolis.

  • Shampoos & conditioners: For extra shine, hydration, and skin care.

  • Anti-itch sprays: Thanks to their soothing and antibacterial effect.

At Nutriliq, we combine honey with natural oils, herbal extracts, and functional ingredients to develop cosmetic products that are both effective and safe.
