Truth in Aging exclusive with Royal Nectar, Bee Venom and Honey Mask Producer

April 23, 2012 - PRLog -- New York, NY,  — Truth in Aging, a leading anti-aging and beauty site, discovered that Nelson Honey, produces the bee venom active used by Heaven, the bee venom face mask said to be favored by the British Royals. The New Zealand company behind Royal Nectar actually makes the combo of manuka honey and bee venom that it then exports to Europe, where it is used by Heaven in its mask.

Bee venom, also known as apitoxin, contains at least 18 active substances and is made up mainly of peptides. The venom acts as a strong anti-inflammatory and antiseptic. Manuka honey, another key ingredient, is an able healer of wounds and an anti-bacterial that can keep acne under control.  

Truth in Aging tested both product lines (Royal Nectar and Heaven) and although there are slight differences in the overall formula, test results favored the Royal Nectar product line. Consequently, Truth in Aging began to import their products from New Zealand and make them available for purchase in its online shop.

Royal Nectar foregoes the shea butter that is in Heaven and instead has added in avocado and apricot kernel oils. It also contains Easyliance, which is made from acacia (a tree indigenous to Africa) and rhizobian gum. It is said to make the skin feel smoother and tighter.  Royal Nectar's ingredients also contain "optiphen plus" which is basically the preservative phenoxyethanol and ticaxan is a stabilizer and thickener. People that are allergic to bee stings should not use these products as they do contain actual bee venom.

Bee venom has been a recent phenomenon in the British press as it was said to account for Camilla's improved appearance. Apparently before her own wedding to Prince Charles, Camilla began using a face mask containing bee-sting venom, considered to be an organic alternative to Botox. Camilla supposedly then passed down this beauty secret to Kate soon after her engagement.
