Monica Zoubovsky is part of a family of beekeepers. She became knowledgable on all the amazing benefits of honey and this inspired her to create Honey Bubbles, a line of natural bath and body products. Their bees are never exposed to harmful chemicals such as pesticides and antibiotics used in agriculture. This is because their beehives are kept in Florida Keys away from the mainland.
Personally, we believe they have the best lip balm. We bought a few sticks a couple of years ago and can't live with out them! It's a daily necessity. Visit their site and shop all of their amazing products
