Bee venom in cosmetics: What does Bee Venom mean?

Bee Venom is actually the English name for bee venom. It is a different substance than honey or propolis and is also used in cosmetic formulations. The name does not automatically make a product more effective or suitable for every skin type. Particularly here, the selection depends on compatibility: If you have a known allergy to bee venom, you should avoid appropriate care and do not do a tolerance test at home.

An example from our range is the I’m From Honey Mask . In addition to honey and vegetable oils, it also contains Bee Venom. The rich mask is intended to be washed off: apply after cleansing and remove with lukewarm water according to the instructions. The soft care feeling comes from the entire formulation. It cannot be attributed to bee venom alone.

Text of the EU notice

Minimum two-year legal guarantee protection for goods sold in the European Union.

Consumers can claim their rights under the legal guarantee of conformity, for example if goods:

  • do not match the description;
  • do not function as intended.

Sellers are liable for any lack of conformity which existed when the goods were delivered, and which becomes apparent within the legal guarantee period. Sellers in such a situation are required to offer:

  • free repair or free replacement;
  • in some cases, a price reduction or full reimbursement.

Some countries have a longer legal guarantee period. For second-hand goods, a shorter period may apply, but not less than one year.

What to do if you receive non-conforming goods:

  1. Contact the seller as soon as possible to report the issue;
  2. Provide proof of purchase, such as a receipt, invoice, or bank statement.

Sellers and producers may also offer commercial guarantees, which apply independently from the legal guarantee. For example, you may see this GARAN label representing a commercial guarantee of durability offered by the producer at no additional cost and covering the entire good.
