It is said that Cleopatra soaked in a bath of milk and honey daily. While we can’t all be this decadent, a little help from the hives goes a very long way.

Honey Pie, Hives and Herbals is a small farm-based business in Prince Edward County that produces a lovely line of balms, lotions and soaps packed with buzzy bee goodness. The Queen Bee lotion combines beeswax and propolis (another precious bee product) with sunflower and coconut oils for a cream that is really divine.  Try the lip balms too for a plump and smooth pout. —Athena Tsavliris
