Product Review: Savannah Bee Company Royal Jelly & A Giveaway!



Today's review focuses on one of the most popular products they manufacture, their Royal Jelly Body Butter. I'm a pushover for cute packaging, so of course that was the first thing I noticed when I opened the package. It comes in a hinged box with honeybees gracing the lid. The inside of the lid features an interesting explanation of what 'Royal Jelly' is. The box states 'A Nutrient-Rich and Protective Formula that's fit for a Queen', and I would have to agree with that. If I had to sum this product up in one word, that word would be luxurious. It's a body butter, so it's thicker than most moisturizing lotions, but not too thick that it hinders the application. It has a very faint scent of blackberries, one of the ingredients, but it didn't interfere at all with my perfume. It felt a bit greasy just after applying it, but dried down quickly and left my skin extremely soft. It also contains beeswax, which is a natural emollient that not only alleviates dryness, but protects your skin. I normally apply a bit of Aquaphor on my elbows before going to bed at night because they're a little rough, and I noticed that when I went to do this last night, they were still smooth as could be from using the Royal Jelly 16 hours earlier. Some of the other ingredients include Shea butter, glycerin, pecan seed oil, and additional natural ingredients along with the honey and Royal Jelly. The packaging contains recycled material, and the glass jar and aluminum cap are also recyclable. The Savannah Bee Company does not test on animals, which is always a huge plus to me. This product retails for $25.00 for a 6.7 oz. jar and while that may seem a bit expensive, it does work extremely well. I think I'll use this more as a target treatment on problem areas, rather than a complete body moisturizer so it lasts a little longer for me. I'm sure I'll use it occasionally as a body moisturizer, especially when I want to feel like a Queen.
I have some other products from The Savannah Bee Company I'll be sharing with you later in the month and some of their products will also be in the August Contest prize baskets. If you'd like to win you own full-sized jar of the Royal Jelly Body Butter, leave your e-mail below in the comments section and I'll cross-post on Twitter for those of you who follow me there. I'll randomly select a winner tomorrow morning from the entries I've received at that time.

Ooohh.. this stuff sounds great! Bath & Body Works (I'm not sure if it was all of them or just ones close to GA) use to sell Savannah Bee Company Products. I own a few little things from there that I picked up about a year or two ago they had at discount prices since they stopped selling it. I'd love to try out the Royal Jelly!
