Our beeswax lip balms are packed with the goodness of beeswax. It’s the number one ingredient in our lip balms. Beeswax is a superior additive for balms because it provides a barrier, fills fine cracks, and is a humectant that draws moisture from the air to your skin in ways most other waxes are unable to do. We mix our beeswax with oils that work together to nourish and condition your skin, without leaving it feeling greasy or heavy.
Over 8 years ago, we learned about the difficulties facing the honeybee. We bought hives the next day, and two weeks later, we had bees in them. We’ve had bees ever since. We quickly began to suspect, as a growing number of beekeepers are beginning to, that current bee management techniques employed by most commercial and many home beekeepers could be contributing to the plight of the honeybees, particularly wild bees. For this reason, we have chosen to keep our bees as holistically and naturally as possible. We have also decided to always have hives, so that our neighborhood will have the benefit of honeybees. In the course of keeping the bees, we began to accumulate beeswax. Not wanting to waste, we looked into things that could be done with beeswax. Our first endeavor was soap. After rave reviews by family and friends alike, and being urged repeatedly to sell our soaps, we did just that. That was over 6 years ago. The rest is history, as they say. We now carry a variety of beeswax/honey body products including these beeswax lip balms.
