Ethical

Nina's Bees is a family-run apiary that practices natural beekeeping without using pesticides or plastic frames. They allow their colonies to build their own comb, determining colony size and mix of sexes. They make award-winning skincare products using beeswax and honey from their apiary. They were awarded "Best Eco-Friendly Family-Run Apiary Australia" by APAC Business Awards in 2022.

Sustainable

Nina's Bees has partnered with Native Oils of Australia to source single origin, Australian-grown native essential oils and natural ingredients for all their products. The partnership focuses on sustainability, with initiatives ranging from developing sustainable farms and communities, to in-house batch testing and accountable warehouse management. Additionally, the brands have adopted a circular model of "Reuse, reduce, recycle," where oil containers are returned, cleaned and refilled with the same ingredients on a regular basis, reducing waste going into landfills. Nina's Bees products are packaged in recyclable containers and mailed in recycled cardboard boxes.

Responsible

Nina's Bees provides a free service to rescue and rehome wild bees from public spaces as a service to the community. Nina, the founder of Nina's Bees, is involved in educational bee talks in local schools and community groups to inform people about the essential role of bees in the ecosystem. She also welcomes high school students to do work experience in her apiary and helps children in primary schools with beekeeping projects. Additionally, Nina participates in the "Inspiring the Future" project to help high school students understand their career options.

Product reviews from our experts…

I loved the novelty of the Nina’s Bees Eyebrow Nourishing balm’s super cute tin packaging. This nourishing balm worked wonders worn at night to soften and nourish brows. This would be an amazing product for women to use after Brow treatments like brow lamination, tattooing and microblading.

Nina is also clearly very passionate about leading by educating and supporting her community! Her commitment to guiding and teaching in local schools and community groups will keep generations to follow informed on the essential role of bees in the ecosystem – Bravo Nina!

I’ve never used a product like this before and I think I need to keep using it because I have naturally quite dry hair and skin so why shouldn’t my brows get some love and attention too?

I also love that Nina’s Bees has adopted a circular model of “Reuse, reduce, recycle,” where oil containers are returned, cleaned and refilled with the same ingredients on a regular basis, reducing waste going into landfills.

I loved applying this at night as a rich treatment before bed. It’s so nourishing! I also like their motto of “Reuse, reduce, recycle,” to eliminate unnecessary waste.
