At Yobee Care, honey isn’t just sweet—it’s science-backed, skin-soothing, and mom-approved. This golden ingredient is a hero in our gentle, microbiome-friendly formulas, trusted by families to care for dry, irritated skin and sensitive scalps. Honey plays a starring role in our signature PROBYOME™ blend, a clinically studied mix of probiotic extracts, honey, turmeric, and vitamin B12, developed by our founder, Dr. Ruchi Gupta—a pediatrician, researcher, and mom—who knows firsthand what families need in their skin and hair care.
As we celebrate World Bee Day, we’re taking a moment to honor the bees whose work brings so much healing power to our products and to your home.
WHY HONEY?
Bees may be small, but the impact of honey is mighty, especially when it comes to supporting skin health naturally and effectively. Bees create honey by collecting nectar and breaking it down into a golden substance filled with bioactive compounds, enzymes, and antioxidants that support skin health in unique ways.
Here’s why we use honey in our formulas, and why science backs its effectiveness:
🐝 Natural Antimicrobial & Antibacterial Properties
Honey has long been used in traditional and modern medicine to fight bacteria and calm inflammation. It contains hydrogen peroxide and glucose oxidase, and has a low moisture content, creating an environment where harmful microbes struggle to survive. It helps fight off skin-damaging microbes while reducing inflammation, making it ideal for eczema, dandruff, and irritated scalps.
🐝 Supports Skin Barrier Function
The natural sugars in honey (like fructose and glucose) are humectants, meaning they pull moisture into the skin. This helps rehydrate dry patches, support the skin barrier, and speed up healing for flaky or cracked skin, especially important for little ones with sensitive skin.
🐝 Prebiotic Properties for a Healthy Microbiome
Recent research, including studies from the NIH, suggests that honey may act as a prebiotic, feeding the “good” bacteria on the skin. This aligns perfectly with Yobee’s core science. Our PROBYOME™ blend is designed to nurture and restore the skin’s microbiome, the invisible ecosystem that plays a huge role in conditions like eczema, psoriasis, and dandruff.
🐝 Sustainably Sourced, Scientifically Inspired
We use ethically and sustainably harvested honey that supports bee health and promotes biodiversity. Our formulations are designed to work in harmony with the skin’s natural ecosystem, using ingredients that are safe and gentle.
FROM OUR HIVE TO YOURS 💛
Today and every day, we honor the bees that make Yobee Care possible. Their work inspires our mission to deliver gentle, effective, and scientifically backed skincare for the most sensitive among us, starting from the scalp.
Happy World Bee Day from all of us at Yobee!
