Honey Cream: A Personal Story of Nourishing Care for Dry Skin

Margaret Rustausky

Honey Cream began with a personal need: finding a moisturizer that made my dry skin feel comfortable and cared for. Living with rosacea was part of my skincare journey, but the goal behind this cream was simple, nourishing everyday moisture.

After trying other natural products without finding what I was looking for, I began experimenting with my own blends. Rose Glen came first, followed by Honey Cream. There were plenty of combinations along the way before I settled on the blend that became part of my own routine.

With encouragement from my son, that curiosity grew into Essentials Everything, and a chance to share the products I loved creating.

What Makes Honey Cream Special?

Honey Cream is a yellow facial moisturizer made with aloe vera hydrosol, honey, meadowfoam oil, evening primrose oil, turmeric, lavender oil, orange oil, and CoQ10. It is designed to help moisturize dry-feeling skin and leave it feeling soft, smooth, and supple.

Its lavender and orange oils add a botanical scent, making morning and evening moisturizing a small moment to enjoy. Because the formula contains honey, it is not vegan.

A Closer Look at the Blend

  • Aloe vera hydrosol: Part of the cream's botanical base.
  • Meadowfoam and evening primrose oils: Emollient oils that help condition skin and soften dry-feeling areas.
  • Honey: A humectant ingredient used in skincare to help attract moisture.
  • Turmeric and CoQ10: Additional ingredients in the blend. Their presence alone does not establish specific treatment or anti-aging results for the finished cream.
  • Lavender and orange oils: Contribute to the cream's botanical scent. Naturally scented products may not suit every skin type.

The Everyday Benefits

A moisturizing routine doesn't have to be complicated. Honey Cream helps soften rough-feeling skin, provides a nourished feel, and leaves skin looking supple. It can also be used under makeup.

These are cosmetic moisturizing benefits, not a promise to treat rosacea, eczema, acne, sunburn, or other skin conditions. My personal reason for developing the cream is part of its story, not evidence that it treats those concerns.

How to Use Honey Cream

Apply a thin layer of cream to the face and neck after using one of our facial cleansers, then massage gently. Use morning and night.

Choose products that suit your skin, and stop using a product if it causes irritation. If you have persistent dryness or a diagnosed skin condition, a dermatologist can help you choose an appropriate routine.

A Little Jar, a Meaningful Beginning

Honey Cream remains a reminder of why I started creating skincare: to turn a personal search for everyday comfort into something I could share. If you enjoy a nourishing facial moisturizer with honey and botanical oils, explore Honey Cream here.
