Bee ointment

The bee salve soothes skin irritations and is particularly suitable as a skin care product for blemish-prone complexions. Propolis soothes, but also has astringent properties; the essential oils are gentle on sensitive skin, and the beeswax is effective as protection against dryness and the cold. The salve is rich in vitamin E, a natural anti-oxidant. Available as a cream or in stick form. Use sparingly.

Since ancient times, humans have been using beeswax, flower pollen, royal jelly, propolis and, of course, the honey from bees. These natural ingredients are particularly valuable – and valuable for the skin too. Honey consists of about 70% simple sugars which bind the moisture content (about 18%). If honey is applied to the skin, so too is the moisture. It also contains many minerals and trace elements, including vitamins C, B2, B5 (pantothenic acid) and B6, as well as amino acids and enzymes. Propolis, also called bee glue, ensures that bacteria and other harmful organisms do not spread in the beehive. In the cold, and in dry conditions, beeswax also protects the skin and lips, and keeps them supple.

Beeswax, flower pollen, royal jelly, propolis and not least the honey of bees have been used by people since time immemorial. The natural ingredients are particularly valuable - even for skin. Honey, for example, consists of about 70% simple sugars, which bind moisture (about 18%) and, if the honey is applied to the skin, release it to it. It also contains many minerals and trace elements, including vitamins C, B2, B5 (pantothenic acid) and B6, as well as amino acids and enzymes. Propolis, also known as bee putty, ensures that bacteria and other harmful organisms cannot spread in the hive. Finally, beeswax protects the skin and lips in cold and dry conditions and keeps them supple.
