When beekeepers come to harvest honey, they carefully take the combs out of the hive and remove the sealing beeswax to release the golden liquid. The emptied honeycomb is usually put back into place but can be also kept when it’s old. It can then be eaten raw or melted for cosmetic use, as it’s made from beeswax and therefore has the same properties.

Lush source honeycomb from a local supplier to the Poole manufacturing sites (UK). They work with beekeepers who understand the importance of treating the hive in the least invasive way possible and use regenerative practices to have a positive impact on the local flora and fauna. Working closely with this supplier helps us to ensure that the practices and standards we require are respected.
