Bee Wax Soap

Pollen Capsules

I have been taking these pollen capsules for around twelve years. Funny thing though, we call it 'bee pollen' but in fact it is 'flower pollen' and bees just collect it for us.

I believe the product is very good for my health  and that may well be the key - belief. But while the nursery management provide flu injections each year, I never 'indulged' and each year while all around me went down with the flu I never had so much as a cold.

Bee Wax Soap

As a gift, the distributors of the bee pollen sent me some of their soap!

I could smell this stuff even when it was in the sealed courier pack! Numbing of the tongue, tight chest and coughing resulted. It is sealed in cellophane but I never even opened it. I have a quick way of disposing of 'stinky stuff'!

Well I wonder why - this is supposed be a natural product.

Sure you can smell the bee wax - I have kept bees and have a good idea about such stuff.

Bee wax does not lather, so the makers of the soap have to put stuff in the mixture to make it 'nice and soapy.

Do they put a fragrance in the mix?  I have no idea because I have never bothered to read the ingredients - to me it is just toxic! But is it logical to use unlatherable bee wax in soap or is it easier to just whack in some chemical that smells like bee wax to a soap mixture? It is just a question.
