Organic beeswax and honey lip balm.
Ingredients : Beeswax, Olive oil, Honey and Pine essential oil.
Beeswax:
Beeswax can create a protective layer on the skin. Itβs also a humectant, which means that it attracts water. Both of these qualities can help the skin stay hydrated.
Beeswax is also a natural exfoliator, ideal for sloughing away dead skin cells.
Olive oil:
Olive oil contains the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K. Some of these vitamins may be beneficial for the skin.
When applied to the skin, antioxidants may prevent premature aging.
Olive oil may treat bacterial skin infections.
Olive oil is a popular natural moisturizer that is often used to soften both skin and hair.
Honey:
Honey is a natural humectant, meaning it draws moisture from the air into the skin and ensures it's retained it in the layers where itβs needed most for penetrating, long-lasting hydration.
The enzymes in raw honey clarify skin and keep pores clear and clean.
Honey is loaded with antioxidants, enzymes, and other nutrients that nourish, cleanse, and hydrate skin.
Honey's anti-inflammatory and antibacterial compounds help to decrease the appearances of scars and increase healing and tissue regeneration. The hydrating properties of honey and olive oil will also help revive skin cells, while regular, gentle massaging will increase circulation to aid skin recovery and cell turnover.
Pine essential oils:
Pine essential oil has healing properties that ease skin irritations from athleteβs foot to boils, and it is often prescribed as a treatment for psoriasis and acne.
Pine essential oil fights dry, itchy skin, making it a great non-steroidal treatment for eczema.
With highly antioxidant properties, it works to fight free radicals in the skin cells that cause lines and wrinkles, making it a great anti-aging assistant.
