I don’t see propolis used as a skincare ingredient often—it’s a miracle component that doesn’t get the appreciation it deserves. While honey is the only food on earth that doesn’t expire and has unmatched healing properties, propolis is a natural substance made from tree sap that bees use to protect and seal their hives. It’s renowned for its antibacterial and healing benefits.
Here are some reasons why I’ll reach for this often:
🍯 Not sticky: Despite the manuka honey component, it feels smooth rather than tacky. It’s subtly addictive, so you might accidentally over-apply it. I recommend against doing so.
🍯 Pleasant scent: It has a slight manuka honey fragrance that I enjoy, not the sickly sweet type. It’s very similar to the manuka honey I use for wound healing in a hospital setting—nature sometimes offers the best treatments.
🍯 Long-lasting: This doesn’t need frequent application. It helps protect my lips, which tend to get drier with weather changes.
🍯 Beneficial ingredients:
- Propolis extract (healing)
- Beta-glucan (humectant)
- Madecassoside (antioxidant, soothing)
- Glycerin (moisturizer, skin-identical ingredient)
- Squalane (emollient)
- Shea butter (emollient)
Overall, I give this a 5/5. It performs just as well as my favorite lip butter (Summer Fridays) and is priced better.
None, unless you dislike honey scents. I personally love them, so this wasn’t an issue for me.
