The products
The Beeswax Facial Moisturizer is a rich, deeply nourishing formula made with an abundance of oils. It is best suited for dry or mature skin and provides long-lasting moisture. Because of its thicker texture, it can also double as a makeup primer. It has a natural aroma from Frankincense and Ylang Ylang essential oils, and only a small amount is needed per application.
The Beeswax Vitamin C Facial Moisturizer is lighter in texture and includes Vitamin C. It absorbs quickly and is ideal for those who prefer a weightless finish or have more youthful skin. It carries a soft citrus scent and typically requires just one pump for full-face coverage.
The Shea Butter Beeswax Body Butter is a rich, protective moisturizer designed for deep hydration. It helps seal in moisture and leaves the skin with a soft, healthy glow. It works especially well for dry or weathered skin and is often favored for tattoo care due to its nourishing properties. It is naturally scented with Lavender and Lemon essential oils.
The Beeswax Vitamin C Body Cream has a lighter texture and is infused with Vitamin C. It absorbs quickly without leaving a heavy residue, making it ideal for daily, year-round use. It leaves skin feeling smooth, soft, and refreshed with a light citrus scent.
The Generation Bee Eye Cream is formulated with 29 carefully selected ingredients designed to support the delicate under-eye area. It absorbs smoothly without feeling heavy or cakey throughout the day.
A key ingredient is Apple Stem Cell extract, which helps support collagen production and reduces the appearance of fine lines. This is also the only product in our line that does not contain an added scent, making it ideal for sensitive skin.
Our Honey Avocado Body Scrub is made with natural oils, sugar, and salt, and contains no water-based ingredients. If water enters the jar, even in small amounts, it can cause the formula to harden over time.
To maintain its ideal texture, always use dry hands or a dry spoon when scooping the product and avoid introducing water into the container.
Most people benefit from exfoliating with body scrub one to two times per week. This helps remove dead skin cells, improve skin texture, and allows moisturizers to absorb more effectively.
It is best to avoid using body products on the face. Facial skin is more delicate, and body formulas are typically richer and designed for thicker skin. For best results, use products specifically formulated for the face.
The ingredients
Honey is a natural humectant, meaning it draws moisture into the skin and helps maintain hydration. It also contains antioxidants that help support a healthy, balanced complexion while soothing the skin.
Beeswax acts as a breathable protective barrier that locks in moisture without clogging pores. It helps shield the skin from environmental stress while keeping it soft, smooth, and hydrated.
Bee pollen is rich in vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and antioxidants. These nutrients help nourish the skin and support a healthy-looking complexion, enhancing overall skin vitality and resilience.
Bee ingredients such as honey, beeswax, and bee pollen have been used in skincare for centuries. They naturally support hydration, protection, and nourishment.
We use them because they work in harmony with the skin and align with our philosophy of creating effective, nature-powered skincare.
Safety
Many people with sensitive skin respond well to bee-based skincare because the ingredients are naturally soothing and hydrating. However, everyone's skin is different, so patch testing is always recommended when trying a new product.
Bee sting allergies are typically related to bee venom, which is not used in our formulations. However, sensitivities vary, so it is always best to perform a patch test before full use, or consult a medical professional if you have concerns.
Some individuals who cannot consume honey may still tolerate topical application. However, reactions can vary. A patch test is recommended before regular use to ensure skin compatibility.
Natural skincare
Our products are made using naturally derived ingredients such as honey, beeswax, bee pollen, botanical oils, and essential oils. We avoid parabens, sulfates, phthalates, and synthetic fragrances.
Essential oils provide natural scent while also offering botanical benefits. Unlike synthetic fragrances, they come from plant-based sources and contribute to a more natural skincare experience.
The bees
Yes. Everything is crafted in small batches to maintain freshness, quality, and consistency. This approach also ensures better control over ingredient integrity.
The honey in our skincare comes from our family apiary in New Lenox, Illinois. The honey in our jars is a blend from our hives and a migratory beekeeper who has dedicated his life to caring for thousands of hives and supporting essential pollination across the country.
Bees play a vital role in global ecosystems by pollinating plants that produce fruits, vegetables, and seeds. This pollination supports biodiversity and helps sustain food systems around the world.
Without bees, many crops and wild plants would struggle to reproduce, making them essential to environmental balance and agricultural health.
