Tales from Nature
Propolis is a precious gift of bees, who create this resinous substance by processing plant secretions from poplars and conifers with their own natural enzymes. Such precious matter is composed of resins, balms, noble waxes and essential oils. Bees choose the warmest and sunniest days for harvesting, so as to ensure maximum malleability of the resin.
This natural seal, used to protect the hive, boasts excellent soothing, sanitizing and antioxidant properties in cosmetics. It acts by promoting skin well-being through supporting natural defenses and cell regeneration.
Benefits
