For Skin & Provisions

The Story—

For 10 years of offering our Bee Rosy Mask and suggesting to mix it with honey & Hydrosol to activate, we now offer you this exquisite collaboration, made with so much love. Inspired by weekly trips to our local farmers market, we bring you a joyous collaboration of skin + wellbeing from our neighbors at Oso Honey Farm. Harvested from the Yaquina coastal lands, they follow the river South, holding 300-500 hives in up to 15 or so locations along the Yaquina River. This varietal marks the beginning of the Wild Blackberry nectar flow, capturing the transition from Spring to Summer. We then take their beautiful honey and solar- infuse our fragrant, sun-dried Organic Tea Roses from our family garden + wild Hawthorn flowers harvested here in the Pacific Northwest. If you’re familiar with our Whole Body Rose Hydrosol, you’ll know the beauty these particular roses hold. We don’t need to do much to make this honey stand out. This is energetically heart-healing nectar, and a collaboration of exquisitely done simplicity at its finest.

Nectar Sources—

• Wild Blackberry, (Rubus bifrons & Rubus ursinus).

• Cascara buckthorn (Frangula purshiana).

• Trefoil, (Lotus major).
  

*Petals have been strained out leaving you with a clear, ready to use honey.



Purpose—

For Skin : Use a couple tablespoons to activate our Bee Rosy Mask (my favorite kind of mask mixer!). You are also welcome to use as a mask, or our favorite kind of exfoliation— honey tapping! Keep reading for details.

For Provisions : Eat as desired! Consider in tea, drizzled on toast & to sweeten your favorite recipes — even a spoonful if you or your kiddo has a tickle in their throat!
* Please do not feed honey to infants under 1 year old.

More on Honey Tapping—

Honeytapping is a ritual of engaging with your fingers and honey directly on the skin as a catalyst for movement. With a repetitive tapping motion, you’re stimulating blood flow & circulation, encouraging lymph drainage, decreasing puffiness, offering gentle exfoliation & strengthening connective tissue. {I enjoy adding a small amount of our Bee Rosy Mask to this ritual for the added purifying effects of clay and herbs here.}

While honeytapping offers our skin, physical and emotional wellbeing, my favorite part is that we achieve these impactful results all by touching our own face! Yes, we can remember that the most profound shifts can come from our own engagement with our bodies. No fancy tools needed - no more being afraid to make contact with our own face. Touch and be touched - clean hands please.

How-to—

Begin with clean skin (dry skin works best here). Gently swipe a spoon’s worth across the forehead, chin, and cheeks & proceed by quick tapping motions of your middle + ring fingers, leaving ample space around the eye area. The more you tap, the more you notice it getting “dryer” as the honey takes on a tacky-like sound and a gentle pulling sensation. When complete, rinse & always follow with a hefty dose of Hydrosol (my seasonal favorites are Whole Body Rose or Purple Majesty Lavender). Continue with SunRoot Solar Serum or Red Movement Oil. I take part in this ritual anywhere fro 1-3 days a week, as I would exfoliate; Do what feels best for you!
