Beeswax has been known to have many therapeutic qualities. Beeswax hydrates, conditions, soothes, and calms the skin. It is also known to soothe itchiness and irritation, and it creates a hydrating, long-lasting protective barrier against environmental pollutants. Beeswax is refreshing, restorative, and gentle enough for use on even the most sensitive skin.

Beeswax is a natural substance generated and secreted by honey bees that use it to develop their honeycombs. Beeswax is comprised largely of fatty acids, hydrocarbons, and esters. The wax is hard and breakable when cold but soft and pliable when heated or exposed to human body temperature.

All of our beeswax is sustainably sourced.

Beeswax is a by-product of honey production. Bees produce excess honey in wax honeycombs which can be taken by beekeepers without affecting the colony. Encouraging comb renewal is an important part of colony health. Honey bees prefer to lay their eggs and rear their young in fresh combs. By harvesting excess honey and honeycomb, beekeepers are making space in the hive for this to occur. That is why we say that the beeswax that is used in our products is sustainably sourced.
