There are so many wonderful qualities to pure Australian beeswax and manuka honey but we only learned about the benefits of camel milk when Summer Land Camels came to us at The BeeKeeper® for large slabs of our NSW forest-harvested 100% pure beeswax.
What did they need beeswax for? For use in their very special Camel Milk Lip Conditioner.
A lot of customers love our beeswax for all sorts of uses (beeswax candles, beeswax foodwraps, encaustic painting, traditional copper art, beeswax furniture polish, didgeridoo mouthpiece conditioning and plenty more), but for a while now we've enjoyed knowing our bee's hardwork is also being blended with Australian camel milk!
When it comes to what you put on your skin, you really want to know that the beeswax in it is the real deal. That’s why we’re excited to know another Australian company, Summer Land Camels based in Queensland, chooses our beeswax to make their incredible lip conditioner.
Research and testing by the Australian Honey Bee Industry Council (AHBIC) has shown that a huge percentage of imported beeswax coming into Australia is contaminated or totally fraudulent in that it is paraffin, a petrochemical product. But when you buy from us, the beekeepers at The Beekeeper®, who actually work with the bees, you're buying direct so know the exact provenance of the beeswax. Our wax is not blended with beeswax from other sources or anything else at all. It's straight from our bees' hives and then gently melted and filtered before cooled into block form ready for you to use.
We know how great beeswax is for the skin, but according to Summer Land Camels, “Camel Milk, known as white gold, has been cherished for thousands of years for its benefits to hair and skin health. Camel milk contains vitamins, minerals, phospholipids, essential fatty acids, alpha hydroxy acids, immune proteins and prebiotics (food for your skin biome). Camel milk supports and promotes a healthy, biodiverse biome, reduces inflammation and stimulates your body to generate healthy youthful skin.”
“Beeswax is more than just a by-product of honey production; it's a skincare superstar. Camel Milk is more than just a novelty item, it’s a tried and true skin health ingredient backed by science. Both ingredients have moisturising, antibacterial, and soothing properties which make them ideal ingredients for a variety of skin types and conditions.“
Summer Land Camels deeply moisturising Lip Conditioner is packed with anti-oxidants, vitamins and minerals to soften and nourish your lips. Blended with Camel Milk powder, Coconut Oil, Shea Butter, Beeswax, Vitamin E, Sweet Orange Oil it can also be used as a spot treatment for bites, rashes or other skin issues.
