Stories from Nature
Propolis is a precious natural resin that bees collect from the buds and bark of various trees, such as poplars and birches. This material is then processed inside the hive and enriched with wax, pollen, and enzymes secreted by the bees themselves. Its purpose in nature is essential: it is used to seal, protect, and sterilize the hive, defending it against bacteria, fungi, and external agents. This natural shield is a true concentrate of flavonoids, vitamins, minerals, and phenolic compounds.
Propolis extract is obtained through the processing of this extraordinary substance; it preserves the original beneficial properties and makes them available for use in cosmetic treatments designed to promote the well-being of the scalp and skin.
