Import

In an era where beauty is being redefined through simplicity, transparency and naturalness, more and more people are turning to natural cosmetics , seeking pure, safe and effective ingredients. In this new era of care, propolis emerges not as a fashion — but as a timeless treasure .

From the time of Hippocrates and the Pharaohs to the present day, propolis has been used to heal wounds, protect against infections and strengthen natural defenses. Most importantly? Modern science confirms what our ancestors intuitively knew: propolis is effective , multi-beneficial and ideal for the skin .

Let's see why — through 5 main reasons that make it a top ingredient for daily care.

Antimicrobial protection for clean skin

Our skin is exposed daily to pollutants, bacteria and microorganisms that disrupt its natural balance. Propolis, rich in natural phenolic acids, flavonoids and essential oils , acts as a natural antimicrobial filter. It fights bacteria, viruses and fungi without disrupting the physiology of the skin.

This makes it ideal for acne-prone or oily skin , skin with pimples or inflammation, and for any skin type that needs cleansing without aggression.

📌 Use in a daily facial cleanser or toner offers visible improvement within a few days.

Natural soothing action

Redness, irritation, stinging, scratching — modern lifestyles take their toll on our skin. Propolis contains powerful anti-inflammatory molecules , such as flavonoids, that soothe the skin , reduce reactions, and restore comfort.

This action is ideal for sensitive or atopic skin , as it acts as a mild, natural "sedative" for the skin without causing addiction or side effects like many pharmaceutical preparations.

📌 In a daily cream or balm, propolis soothes the skin after exposure to the sun, cold or after shaving.

Powerful antioxidant protection

Premature aging of the skin is directly linked to free radicals , i.e. molecules that cause cellular damage. Propolis, as a natural shield, is rich in antioxidants that neutralize free radicals and enhance cell renewal .

This means that the skin remains brighter, more elastic and more "alive" . The use of propolis in antioxidant daily care reduces the damage caused by stress, air pollution and UV radiation.

📌 Suitable for all skin types – from aging prevention to restoration.

Healing and regeneration

Propolis is particularly healing , as it enhances the synthesis of new cells , reduces healing time and limits the risk of scars. It is ideal for:

• small wounds or scratches

• irritation from hair removal or shaving

• internal marks (acne scars or burns)

In addition, propolis combines exceptionally well with beeswax, hyaluronic acid and royal jelly , offering rich nourishment and protection.

📌 Its presence in after-sun, hand creams or masks makes a difference.

Anti-aging action in a natural way

Age is natural, but its signs don't have to be abrupt. Propolis promotes the production of collagen and elastin , helping to maintain the elasticity, firmness and even texture of the skin.

Most importantly, all of this is done without chemicals or synthetic active ingredients . Propolis works deeply and over time, offering prevention and repair at the same time.

📌 Ideal for mature, but also young skin types that want to proactively invest in their natural glow.

Final thought

Propolis is not just another natural ingredient. It is a small miracle of nature , a complete natural pharmacy in one substance, which science, experience and nature agree is worth incorporating into our routine.

At my bee , propolis is the heart of every one of our formulas , because we believe in its power — and we see it every day in the results.
