All Herstat products contain our unique purified propolis extracts. Propolis is a natural substance produced by honeybees which they collect from plants and trees. Bees use propolis to keep their hives sterile and free from disease.

Our community of beekeepers are committed to the health, protection and biosecurity of their bee populations. Collecting propolis occurs as a standard part of the process by which honey is harvested from the hives.

Propolis has a pleasant smell and taste and means we don't have to use artificial fragrance. The propolis works alongside the other ingredients to help soften and moisturize your lips to aid the healing process.

The propolis in Herstat acts as a preservative, so we don't need to add any parabens to preserve our products or add any artificial fragrances to our ingredients.
