Burt’s Bees Limited Edition Honeymoon Suite Kit: Wild for Bees Campaign

Honey has been described as “liquid gold” and in the world of health and beauty it is very beneficial. Not only is honey a natural antibiotic and disinfectant it also has healing properties that can treat wounds, infections, colds, allergies and may reduce the risk of some gastrointestinal disorders, heart disease and certain cancers.

I have purchased a wide variety of raw, organic honey from around world including Spain, Dubai and Italy and since my dad is an avid collector of wild honey I have sampled some of the rarest blends. The taste varies among region depending on the type of plants the bees pollinate but I love adding it to tea, and baked goods. Many beauty brands also use this sweet nectar to enrich their products and I have used it to make my own face masks and hair treatments! When applied to the skin it moisturizes, unclogs pores, exfoliates, fades scars, treats acne, nourishes and soothes.

Burt’s Bees has been infusing honey into their products for years and the brand is a strong advocate for the preservation of bees and their natural habitats.


Honey is delicious and nutritious and bees are essential to the pollination and production of healthy food. We need bees to support a bountiful ecosystem and “1 of every 3 bites we eat is pollinated by these hard working little insects.

Worldwide there has been an alarming decline in the population of bees which will pose a threat to global agriculture. To help do our part Burt’s Bees has teamed up with Fairmont Hotel & Resorts to expand their Wild for Bees partnership in an effort to build bee hotels across Canada. To show your support you can purchase The Burt’s Bees Honeymoon Suite Kit at burtsbees.ca or at the Fairmont Royal York store and get a mini bee hotel for your backyard which will create a new habitat and increase pollination.

The kit retails for $14.99 and includes the Soap Bark & Chamomile Deep Cleansing Cream- a rich sulfate-free face cleanser infused with: sunflower, rosemary, coconut, lemon, lime, witch hazel, olive, echinacea cocoa, chamomile and much more! The gentle lather foams away dirt and excess oil to refresh, calm and soothe.  


The Nourishing Milk & Honey Body Lotion is clinically proven to moisturize for up to 24 hours with a lightweight formula and a sweet, natural scent. The milk deeply nourishes normal to dry skin and coconut, grape seed oil, vitamin E, shea butter, aloe, rosemary, and an abundance of extracts condition and soften. This is also a great hand cream because of the non-greasy texture and it leaves skin smooth and silky.


With sandal season upon us you will want to show-off that trendy pedicure so a good foot cream is a must! This cream combines coconut oil and vegetable glycerine to revive and rejuvenate the most neglected feet and it helps improve the appearance of rough, dry heels. I like to apply my foot treatments overnight to let them soak in and work their magic and this formula contains rosemary and peppermint oil to refresh tired feet.


The Hand Salve is the perfect purse size and contains an awesome blend of herbs and besswax to heal and revive dry hands. Although the balm is solid rubbing the surface melts it into a rich, oily consistency and it works wonders on damaged cuticles! Infused with eucalyptus, lavender, sweet almond and more it has a very botanical scent but once applied skin feels very supple and hydrated.


Burt’s Bees Beeswax Lip Balms have been a cult favorite for eradicating parched, chapped lips for years! This moisturizing formula is infused with vitamin E and peppermint to soothe and soften your pout with a layer of creamy protection all year long. This kit is perfect for travel and use on the go!
