Bee Rescued Propolis Review and Giveaway!


About Bee Rescued

Bee Rescued Propolis care is nationally available brand made in Janesville, Wisconsin by the family owned company Little Honeyzzz. Not only do they develop and produce their own product line of personal care based items, but they also raise their own honeybees that produce the ingredients going into these products! This makes Bee Rescued Propolis care entirely unique.

The other quality that I believe makes them so very different is the fact that they put propolis into each and every product they produce. For those who don't know, Propolis is a substance made by the honeybee. It is a sticky, resinous substance that is used by the bee to both sterilize the inside of the colony and to act as a glue to help hold the structural components of the colony together. This amazing substance has been used medicinally for literally thousands of years, the first recorded instance of such prescription being the great philosopher Plato of whom it is written, prescribed this substance “for ulcers, both internal and external”.

Today, much research is being conducted on propolis by the global scientific community. Scientists in India are researching the healing affects of Propolis on oral wounds and dental carries while their counterparts in Europe test and examine the use of Propolis on burn and wound care. In every place where Propolis is being put to the test, it is producing astonishing results, results that the ancients were well acquainted with.

I personally love honeybees and have been obsessed with learning about them. It breaks my heart as well as scares the crap out of me that so many of them have been dying off in such large numbers very rapidly. A lot of animal rights activists are against using bee products, but I personally find that to be silly. Raising a colony of bees provides them a safe haven with adequate amounts of care and nutritional values.

The honeybees that produce the propolis for all of the Bee Rescued brand products have been raised in a method of partnership and stewardship that differs from the rest of the bee industry. Their beloved honeybees are raised without the use of any antibiotics, corn syrup or chemicals of any kind. This means that the products harvested from their hives are 100% pure and natural raising the bar for the entire industry.

Why I Love Bee Rescued Products

Every one of their Bee Rescued Products are made with one of their loved ones in mind. This means that when they formulated these products, they had to do their job well. You can really tell that they didn’t just make a product for the store shelves, they made a product that had to be capable of changing the lives of those who needed it! Bee Rescued products are simple and pure. They never contain chemicals, compounds or dangerous ingredients in any of their products. Simply 100% pure and natural goodness straight from the flower to my family! 

I got sent an AMAZINGly huge selection of Bee Rescued products for my family and me to try. They all have minimal ingredients and are never tested on animals!

So far I have really enjoyed using the Bee Rescued Propolis Toothpaste. It has authentic, 100% natural propolis. With clove oil and tea tree oil, this toothpaste packs one awesome punch!

Soothing to the gums and great for sensitive teeth, it really is one of the best natural toothpastes I have tried. I love the fact that this toothpaste is so pure, you can swallow it. Not that I advise doing that, but it does happen to make Bee Rescued Propolis Toothpaste perfect for children who forget to spit!

The taste isn't offensive or off-putting, as some other natural toothpastes tend to be. I would prefer that it didn't have xanthan gum in it, but I understand that it is used as a binder in many toothpastes.  




I thoroughly enjoy the Bee Rescued Honey and Propolis Hand Lotion. I am surprised by how far the tiniest bit of this lotion will go. When applying a pea sized amount, I can moisturize my hands as well as the entirety of my arms. It never leaves my skin greasy and moisturizes for a long time. The scent is very reminiscent of the way Whole Foods smells.. Which I happen to love. I cannot describe it any other way.

By far, one of my favorite Bee Rescued products. The Original Propolis Rescue Balm is 100% natural and Gluten Free. It is formulated as a natural choice for anyone looking to rescue their skin from the worst dry, cracked, or chapped problem areas. This is now my go to product for when I am suffering from irritation, inflammation, or an infection on the skin. My skin and I both love how it is packed with soothing propolis and high quality virgin coconut oil.


I have super sensitive skin. Finding products to moisturize without chemical irritants has been difficult.  So needless to say, I was stoked to try the Bee Rescued Honeybee Eye Cream. It has the same wonderful, comforting scent as their hand lotion with added benefits specially formulated for the eyes. I don't get much sleep, and when I do, it isn't always that restful. This leaves me with dark circles under my eyes. Using this eye cream has seemed to reduce the darkness of the circles as well as relieving the puffiness. It also creates a smooth palette for my eye makeup. It is so gentle, smells great and keeps my skin soft and glowing. I have been using it all over my face, not just the eyes. It has been great on my dry, sensitive skin!


 The Bee Rescued Proplis Moisturizing Cream was such a delight to use! I was pleasantly surprised by how thick and rich this cream was. I am used to the liquidy, almost soap like texture of other brands of moisturizers. It is definitely the most intense skin moisturizing cream I have ever used. This cream was designed specifically to meet the needs of the dermal layers on the face and neck. Unlike other moisturizers, this one delivers a beautiful blend of propolis and raw honey to help nourish your skin. I have really sensitive skin, so I really appreciate the gentleness. It has been a perfect addition to my beauty care routine. 


 If you know me at all, you know full well about my lip balm addiction. This Propolis Lip Balm was the first Bee Rescued product I tried. I almost couldn't wait to snap a photo first. This lip balm helps me quell the urge to constantly apply lip balm as once it is on my lips, it seems to last forever. Unlike other lip balms, I am never left with the need to reapply only moments after my initial application. I love how there aren't and nasty cosmetic fillers, it is so natural!




Loaded with propolis, and witch hazel, to sooth and protect your most delicate skin, nothing is more pleasing as the Bee Rescued Shave gel for Him or Her.

With no aerosols, sodium lauryl sulfates, or any added cosmetics, you will not find another shaving product more gentle to the environment, or better for your skin.
Tone, nurture, and replenish the natural glow of healthy skin!
