How the beeswax creams were created.
How were Cret΄essentials created??
How were Cret΄essentials created In 2012 I was diagnosed with skin cancer! After the surgery I had, I started using the beeswax cream I made systematically. Its results didn’t take long to show , results that my dermatologist noticed! She urged me to continue to use it.
I shared these beeswax creams with friends and acquaintances who encouraged me to share them with you! All products are handmade. The materials I use are Cretan, but I produce them (eg my excellent quality production olive oil).
The beeswax (honeycomb) is a biological production by local beekeeper, pure and aromatic. The herbs I use for extraction in olive oil are collected from nature. Helichrysum, Cistus, Mandilida (chrysanthemum segetum), Absinthe, Achillea, Thyme, Fliskouni(mentha pulegium), Sage, Daphne, Rosemary, Wild Lavender, Chamomile, Balsamo (hypericum perforatum), Wild Rose, Geranium. It is well known that the Cretan land is rich in very good quality herbs, and some are unique in the world.
Essential oils that enrich Cret 'essentials are chosen one by one so they are of high quality and contributing to their better performance, as well as their special aroma Cret'essentials also have bee propolis, pollen and Cistus resin.
In Cret'essentials we give you the opportunity to create your own creams. You choose from the base oils and the essential oils you like ...
They are in the section “on your own”. I will make the creme for you as you wish.
The list of oils and essential oils is constantly updated.

Women have made creams since then with beeswax and oil. It has been used in the cosmetics industry for years now, improving their properties and stability. Although the full chemical composition of the beeswax is not yet known, we know it has over 300 different elements. It has been recognized by its emollient, anti -inflammatory, antiseptic properties due to small amounts of propolis placed by bees in each honeycomb cell.
The wax that is used by bees to cover mature honey has antibiotics that makes it capable of maintaining honey.
Beeswax as a cosmetic product offers protection, treatment and care to our skin. It protects against premature aging of the skin and is suitable for all skin types, even the most sensitive. It transfers and gradually releases essential oils and propolis to our body.
