Propolis is an herbal, being made by bees from trees saps & resins. The bees harvest the immunity-boosting tree secretions like sap and resin and add enzymes through their body processes, as well as plants and beeswax. The end product is propolis which is antiviral, antibacterial, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory and an antioxidant. It is an excellent additive to lotions, salves and balms for its skin healing abilities.

Propolis is commonly used for its healing, antiseptic and restorative capabilities. Propolis will assist in balancing, healing and soothing problematic skin. It also accelerates the rate of cell growth and decongests pores. It also protects against bacteria and functions as a great anti-inflammatory agent.
