What it actually does

A bee-made resin that adds a nourishing, slightly comforting layer to skin — great for calming and giving a healthy glow.

How to use it

Layer a serum or ampoule under moisturiser AM and PM. Great during seasonal change when skin looks dull or feels reactive.

The science, in plain English

A bee-derived resin rich in flavonoids and antioxidants — traditionally used for its calming and glow-boosting properties.

Myth vs reality
