The Superstar Nutrient: Vitamin C
Vitamin C is known to be a water-soluble vitamin that cannot be dissolved in oil. However, researchers have found that it comes in a lot of forms, surprisingly even an oil-soluble form. That’s why vitamin C can be found in some plant oils like those in our new Rose C Serum.
Organic Rosehip Seed Oil is incredibly rich in Vitamin C and contains high levels of beta-carotene, Vitamin A, and omega 3 and 6. It helps return the elasticity back to your skin by stimulating collagen production, hydrates, is anti-inflammatory and helps to lighten dark spots.
Organic Sea Buckthorn Oil has been shown to be 12 times higher in Vitamin C than in oranges. It also contains high levels of vitamin E, vitamin A, and essential fatty acids. Best of all, it’s an excellent source of the rare Omega 7. This potent essential fatty acid is the vital collagen-producing essence that strengthens and repairs your skin at the deepest layers, leaving you with a bright, glowing complexion. This extraordinarily gentle oil packs a punch and synergizes well with the other ingredients in our serum to help heal skin issues and brighten your complexion.
Organic Marula Oil penetrates deeply into the skin to nourish, moisturize and protect. Its combination of fatty acids, amino acids, and antioxidants such as vitamins C and E and phenolic compounds help ensure the promotion of elasticity which helps enhance your skin’s firmness and reduce the appearance of pigmentation patches and scars. It is non-comedogenic, so it won’t clog pores while it helps fortify your skin and help keep it looking radiant and healthy.
Directions: Shake and gently massage a small amount onto moist skin under eyes, surrounding area, and any dry or problem areas of the face, neck, and décolletage in an upward motion. Use AM & PM.
Allow serum to absorb for 2-3 minutes before applying the Honey Girl Organics Face Cream of your choice.
For best results use after Honey Girl Organics Facial Cleanser/Makeup Remover or Foaming Facial Wash and Rose Toner.

General Instructions
The creams are concentrated. A little goes a long way!
Apply a small amount first, then increase amount as desired.
There may be some separation in the creams from time to time because no artificial or chemical emulsifiers or stabilizers are used. If separation should occur, please stir lightly with a clean spatula. This does not apply to our thicker creams like the Night Crème, Super Skin Food, Mom & Baby Butter, Foot Balm and Cuticle & Nail Crème - these thicker creams should not be stirred.
It’s best to either use applicator or clean hands when getting product out of the jar. This will keep the product in a fresh condition longer.
Do not refrigerate. The creams keep best at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and heat.
We recommend using our products within 6 months after opening. If unopened, they will remain good for 12-18 months from the batch date. They have been tested for a shelf life of 18 months unopened and another year opened providing usage of clean fingers and/or spatulas.
OUR STAR INGREDIENTS
HONEY
What is honey and how is it made?
When the foraging field bees return to the hive with their loads of nectar they are greeted by home-based worker bees at the hive. These home-based bees immediately begin receiving the transfer of the nectar load. The transfer is accomplished tongue to tongue. Once the transfer is complete the recipient bees continue to process the honey by holding it in their mouths and honey stomachs and adding additional enzymes.The tongue to tongue transfer also begins the process of evaporating the water out of the nectar. The recipient bees hold the nect ar on their tongues to let the water evaporate. Nectar is about 80% water. This must be reduced down to about 18% so that it can be converted to honey. The lower moisture level is needed so that the honey can be stored without fermenting. Once some of the water is evaporated on the tongues of the hive bees, the partially dehydrated nectar is placed into open cells where the evaporation process continues by the beating of wings. Once the honey has been properly dehydrated the bees seal the cells. Beekeepers know that the honey is ready for harvesting when they see sealed honeycomb cells.
Use of honey for healing throughout history
* An ancient Egyptian medical papyrus recommends the use of honey to cure infection and heal wounds.
* Cleopatra bathed in milk and honey. Because honey is very low in moisture it is a natural humectant. This means that it attracts and retains moisture, making it an excellent moisturizer for hair and skin.
* Honey is the only natural food that never spoils if sealed and kept within natural temperatures. Archeologists found a jar of honey in a tomb in Egypt that tasted fine, even though it was two thousand yea rs old.
* The use of honey as an aphrodisiac is mentioned in both The Kama Sutra and its Arabic equivalent, The Perfumed Garden.
* The Greek physician Hippocrates, born in 460 BC, is known as the "father of Western Medicine." He is the author of the "Hippocratic Oath," taken by all Western doctors to this day. Hippocrates studied honey and loved its properties. He noted that "[h]oney and pollen cause warmth, clean sores . . . [and] soften hard ulcers . . . ."
* The Muslim Quran, at Chapter XVI, entitled The Bee, states: "There proceedeth from their bellies a liquor of various colour, wherein is medicine for men."
* Honey is mentioned in the Bible 61 times, including 20 descriptions of Canaan as the "land flowing with milk and honey."
Modern Use of Honey for Healing
Honey contains vitamins, minerals, and amino acids
Honey Contains Antioxidants
A variety of factors cause the creation of free radicals, including exposure to environmental hazards like secondhand smoke and car exhaust. And free radicals also occur in the body naturally.
Antioxidants neutralize free radicals and thus slow down thi aging process by neutralizing free radicals. Honey is rich with antioxidants. A 2004 study conducted by the University of California concluded that honey has levels of antioxidants that compare well with fruits and vegetables that have high levels of antioxidants like spinach, apples, and strawberries.
It is important to note that antioxidants are destroyed when honey is heated. For that reason store-bought pasteurized honey will not have the same health benefits. At Honey Girl Organics, we use only our own organically raised raw (unheated) honey in all our products.
Honey Contains Antibacterial and Anti-fungal Agents
BEESWAX
Why is beeswax in Honey Girl Organics' creams?
Uses of Beeswax in Beauty Products
What is beeswax?
It takes about a million of these wax flakes to create 2 pounds of beeswax.
In order to create honeycomb, beeswax needs to be pliable enough for the bees to mold, but sturdy enough to act as protection for the bees, their eggs and their precious food source. Although it's too hard and brittle to apply to your skin directly, the beeswax from honeycomb can be gently melted and used as a base for a variety of skincare products. Beeswax may be applied to minor burns or other skin damage in order to help heal the skin. The texture and water-resistance of beeswax allows it to act as a protective barrier. When mixed in lotion and applied to rough patches or chapped areas it prevents further damage and seals in moisture, allowing the skin to heal. It also helps soften skin without synthetic chemical additives.
PROPOLIS
But honey and pollination are not the only gifts offered by these ancient, magical insects. Propolis is yet another beehive product that provides many unique benefits.
What is Propolis?
When analyzed down to its trace ingredients, bee propolis contains more than 300 compounds, the exact makeup of which varies greatly depending on the plant source, the time of collection, and the geographic location of the hive.
How Bees Use Propolis
Second, propolis, with its strong anti-bacterial qualities, is used to disinfect the interior of the hive. The entire interior of the beehive is coated with propolis, and the interior of the brood cells is also coated in preparation for the laying of eggs. This disinfecting of the cells ensures an antiseptic environment for the rearing of the brood.
How People Use Propolis
Propolis has long been used by humans for medicinal purposes. The ancient Greek physician, Hippocrates, often called the "father of modern medicine," prescribed propolis for the healing of sores and ulcers. Egyptians used propolis for a variety of diseases and to embalm bodies. The Roman scholar Pliny wrote extensively on propolis, describing its abilities to reduce swelling, soothe pain and heal sores.
The use of propolis in toothpaste helps fight bacteria and tooth decay and helps heal bleeding gums.
At Honey Girl Organics we use propolis in almost all of our products
BEE POLLEN
Bee pollen has long been recognized for its many health benefits. In particular, it is known for its ability to improve skin health and to rejuvenate the skin.
What is Bee Pollen?
Why is Bee Pollen so Nutritious?
How People Use Pollen
- Dr. M. Esperrois, of the French Institute of Chemistry, concluded from his experiments that bee pollen contains potent antibiotics and also reverses the aging of the skin, correcting darkening, wrinkles, and blemishes.
- Dr. Henri Luzuy, in his work "Pollen - The Biological Principle in Cosmetology" says, "Pollen extracts can be considered as factors of particular importance in the regeneration and rejuvenation of the skin. The first visible effect of the cosmetic preparations with a pollen extract base is the clearing of the complexion."
- Dr. Lars-Erik Essen says, "Through [nutrition administered through the skin], bee pollen exerts a profound biological effect. It seems to prevent premature aging of the cells and stimulates growth of new skin tissue. It offers effective protection against dehydration and injects new life into dry cells. It smoothes away wrinkles and stimulates a life-giving blood supply to all skin cells. The skin becomes younger looking, less vulnerable to wrinkles, smoother, and healthier with the use of honeybee pollen."
- Professors N. Mankovsky and D. G. Chebotarev, found that bee pollen renews skin cells. They explain: "The rejuvenation of skin and body cells can be encouraged by the administration of the poly-vitamins, microelements, enzymes, hormones, and amino acids present in bee pollen."
At Honey Girl Organics, we use bee pollen in most of our products for the benefits it brings to skin health. The antioxidants in bee pollen fight skin damage caused by free radicals. The many nutrients nourish and rejuvenate the skin.
ROYAL JELLY
Why is Royal Jelly in our organic creams?
What is Royal Jelly?
Health Benefits
Studies indicate that the acids found in Royal Jelly contribute to collagen production, which is important for more youthful looking skin.
ORGANIC EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL
Health & beauty myths come and go. Sooner or later, the truth rises to the surface, the bubble pops— and a fad is laid to rest, quickly making way for yet another to take its place.
Not the case with Mighty Olive Oil!
Olive oil has withstood the test of time. History has shown that its use dates back to ancient times; it was revered as a source of currency, medicine, fuel, food, & soap-making. It was used for religious rituals and found in a plethora of beauty treatments. Hippocrates mentions 60 different conditions which could be treated with it, such as skin ailments, wounds and burns, gynecological issues, ear infections and many others.
Anti-Oxidant = Anti-aging
Olive oil contains a high concentration of antioxidants including Vitamins A and E. These antioxidants protect the skin from damage by fighting off free radicals that attack cells, eroding collagen and elastin. Olive oil’s antioxidants are essential anti-aging ingredients.
Anti-inflammatory = Clearing & Calming
Antibacterial = Cleansing
Oleic Acid = Moisturizing
Living in Texas where the state is known for its extreme weather, i.e., heat! I was skeptical about using this moisturizer due to having oils in it and maybe it causing burns on my face. Well, I could have not been more wrong. The moisturizer is amazing as my skin is very very soft and no burns despite going out in the Texas sun. I love it
Absorbs into my skin beautifully! I love your products
I’ve been using Rose C Serum for five years. I have used other highly acclaimed C Serums. Either they stunk like a chemical factory or they burned. I love using a product that is all organic, gentle on skin, a pleasant light natural smell, and makes my skin glow. I use it morning and night. It’s been great for my 60+ skin. Highly recommend!
Rose C Serum softens my skin and helps minimize some wrinkles. It dries quickly and feels good.
I have been using Rose Serum for 3 years and can confidently say it is great! It lasts forever because 2 squirts cover my face, neck, and decollete. I use this serum daily after a shower. I love the texture and the smell. Fabulous!
