Planet Bee Foundation Founder Creates Marin Bee Pure Honey Skincare Featuring California Wildflower Honey

Marin Bee Story

Marin Bee Company and Planet Bee Foundation founder, Debra Tomaszewski, is on a mission to save your skin and save the bees! For nearly 10 years, this passionate beekeeper has been empowering a green-minded generation with renowned programs that educate and raise awareness about the global bee crisis. Tomaszewski launched Marin Bee in 2017, a luxurious farm-to-table skincare that harnesses the power of California Wildflower Honey to nourish and treat your skin.    

 

Featuring natural and organic ingredients and signature California Wildflower Honey, this eco-friendly, cruelty-free brand provides effective, beautiful products while funding conservation efforts and educating consumers about the value of bees and other pollinators -- a vital part of our ecosystem. Bees are responsible for 1/3 of every bite we eat, however their populations are plummeting at an alarming rate worldwide.

    

Marin Bee Pure Honey Skincare Overview

Marin Bee Pure Honey Skincare combines fresh local California Wildflower Honey with other soothing time-tested ingredients like aloe, oatmeal, olive and jojoba oil, shea butter, green tea, salt, and a unique blend of essential oils. “I discovered the profound effects of honey on my skin while tending hives. The honey significantly improved my skin’s appearance and complexion,” explains Tomaszewski, Marin Bee founder and backyard beekeeper. “Skin became a big issue in my home with my kids. As they grew into adolescence, they faced skin problems and the standard prescriptions from doctors were too harsh and irritating on their delicate skin. I turned to my bees and crafted homemade remedies. The products were natural and completely safe for sensitive skin. The results were dramatic. Their skin looked  healthier, nourished and had a natural glow. For myself, I started seeing less visible signs of stress and aging. Years later, I had perfected the formulas and Marin Bee Pure Honey Skincare was born. I hope my love for bees and mission to help save them translates into the products and that all users can experience the same gratitude for this essential species.”

 

Marin Bee formulas are specially created to detoxify, nourish, exfoliate and deeply moisturize skin using the power of California Wildflower Honey. Alive with native wildflowers, vibrant colors, and sweet fragrances, California’s nectar corridors attract and feed bees, producing nutrient-rich honey with a distinct blend of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, amino acids, peptides, and antioxidants. Honey has been used throughout the ages for its restorative and rejuvenating properties to help heal and regenerate skin. Powerful antioxidants deeply nourish and protect skin from environmental damage. Antimicrobial properties purify, while enzymes break down dead skin cells so they can be easily sloughed away. Honey is also a natural humectant, absorbing moisture from the air to hydrate skin.

Marin Bee Pure Honey Skincare donates 5%  of profits to support Planet Bee Foundation education programs and conservation efforts. This skincare line is developed with a holistic vision, treating skin products as food for the body and soul, allowing skin to glow naturally.

With care for the planet at the heart of Marin Bee Pure Honey Skincare, products are thoughtfully developed in Northern California with the use of local vendors whenever possible to reduce carbon footprint. All packaging is recyclable and the boxes are manufactured with wind power and printed with plant-based dyes. Marin Bee empowers and educates others to help influence environmental change and stewardship through their National Wildflower Campaign and support of Planet Bee Foundation’s National Seed Ball Kit Program for Schools.  

Marin Bee Pure Honey Skincare hero products include their Honey Butter and Lip Repair.  Honey Butter is formulated with shea butter and coconut oil to deeply condition and moisturize, while jojoba oil improves elasticity and cell regeneration as well as provides a barrier against environmental toxins. Lip Repair provides a nourishing high gloss with a luxurious hydrating blend of calendula to soothe, beeswax and castor oil to protect and pomegranate to rejuvenate.
