me and the bee

my friend had replaced her Botox injections with this and had results (she does look amazing but no different than normal!) so I thought at 25 (at the time), that I should try it (I've never used botox or fillers and have lines appearing). At £73.00 a pot it is a big decision....

how did I use it?
I used a ten pence sized amount after cleansing every morning and night. I also had 2 bee venom facials at an approved Heaven therapy lounge.

I used it for 12 months

first impressions....
 a pleasant  smell, light texture felt fabulous on my skin.

relationship with other products...
I couldn't use a primer as it felt too much, nor a sun screen so I didn't feel adequately protected in the heat. I also found user a moisturiser too greasy.... in saying that under make up it felt good and at night when it was just the mask on my face it felt lovely on my skin.

the results?
the first month was a bit spotty I thought that was my skin getting used to the product, I had changed my cleanser at the same time. I did notice that it felt more 'heavy' when I raised my eyebrows but I didn't notice any improvement in fine lines. My skin improved dramatically after the first full facial and I was really pleased with the results, had my second facial 8 weeks later and again was pleased how some red marks from old spots had disappeared. The downside is I felt like I got more spots (counted 21 on my face at one point). I stopped using bee venom and my skin has been fine! Strange as tee tree and coca butter (ingredients) are supposed to be good for spot control! I guess everyone is different!

will I buy it again?
I spent £266 in total on bee venom mask and facials - I don't think it was the best way I have ever spent that kind of money - would say save it for a Mulberry :-)
