Propolis Creme combines pure inner leaf aloe vera gel with bee propolis. These two essential elements help your skin maintain its beautiful tone and texture.
Bee propolis is a resinous substance that bees create to fortify their hives. It’s also a fantastic healing ingredient.
Moisturizes
Bee propolis is a resinous substance that bees make to fortify their hives, but also has properties that create a natural barrier on your skin. This helps to lock in the benefits of pure inner leaf aloe vera gel and other skin-nourishing ingredients.
This unique creme also contains cooling camomile and stabilized aloe vera gel to nourish the skin and maintain its tone and texture. It is a light, easily absorbed cream that can be used on the face, hands and body.
This nourishing cream is a blend of Forever Living’s world leadership in aloe vera and beehive products, as well as soothing chamomile. It also features vitamin A and E, recognized for their skin-conditioning benefits.
Repairs Wounds
Propolis is a resinous substance bees use to fortify their hive, but this natural healing product also benefits your skin! Combined with aloe vera and other natural ingredients, Propolis Creme helps maintain healthy, clear skin tone and texture.
Besides its antimicrobial and antioxidant properties, propolis is known for its immunomodulatory properties. This means that it can increase or suppress the immune system, helping your body heal wounds faster!
The phenolic acids and flavonoids in propolis can also help reduce oxidative stress, which is necessary to repair tissue damage. This enables your wound to heal more quickly by controlling the production of free radicals.
Another beneficial property of propolis is its ability to fight off mast cells, a type of cell that can slow your wounds’ healing process. One study showed that a topical propolis extract was more effective than a steroid cream in reducing mast cells in oral surgery wounds.
Reduces Inflammation
Propolis is a natural resin that contains wax, essential oils, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and bioactive compounds. It has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, which can be beneficial in preventing many chronic diseases.
It also helps regulate blood sugar levels and reduces oxidative stress on the body, which improves heart, lungs and kidney health. It may also prevent a number of health conditions like diabetes, asthma, and high cholesterol levels in the body.
In addition, it is a good antimicrobial that can help fight bacteria and fungi, which cause most infections. It can stop the growth and reproduction of these microorganisms, which can make wound healing easier.
Studies have shown that propolis speeds up wound healing and scavenges free radicals that can lead to inflammation and infections. It can also stimulate glycosaminoglycan synthesis and release, which is necessary for granulation tissue formation in the wound bed, tissue growth, and wound closure.
Helps with Acne
In addition to keeping your skin hydrated, propolis also helps fight acne-causing bacteria. This is thanks to its antiseptic properties, explains Dr. Hartman, who recommends pairing it with a retinoid or salicylic acid to decrease oil production and clear pores.
Propolis also has amazing healing properties, helping to calm and restore irritated skin caused by blemishes/acne, post-acne marks, and dryness. It also acts as an antioxidant, which can help reduce calm redness and heal post-acne scars more effectively.
This buzzy ingredient has also been proven to increase a cellular immune response, which can help combat the effects of bacterial acne. That’s especially helpful if you have an active case of acne, as you can use it on a daily basis to help prevent breakouts and keep them from returning.
