A wild rose, natural bee remedy for your lips giveaway!

This week’s giveaway travels across the pond, from the countryside of the English Cotswolds. Apples & Pears Apiaries is a small beekeeping business in an old fruit orchard that creates beauty batches from the oldest beauty treatments in history: beeswax and honey.

“We use first quality ‘cappings’ wax (the thin wax capping which seals the honey into the honeycomb). The wax is slowly warmed and filtered, so as not to destroy its many beneficial properties, and then carefully blended with healing honey, organic cold-pressed plant oils, butters, waxes and extracts.

“Landscape and wildlife are at the heart of our business and we never overlook the welfare of our busy workforce…

“Our bees are set out in small groups (apiaries) on a mixture of sites: farmland, pasture, alongside ancient hedgerows, in old orchards, woodland and by lakes – locations with plenty of nectar and pollen sources throughout the year, to help maintain strong healthy colonies.”

Sign up for our daily email or invite friends to join to be entered to win a Wild Rose Lip Balm of your very own! A nourishing blend of sweet yellow beeswax, cold-pressed organic rosehip seed oil, and oil of rosa damascene, infused with the healing plant alkanet to give a subtle pink tint, this balm is rich and moisturizing to give lips daily protection.
