Where does it come from?

Pollen is collected from flowers by bees, who gather it as a food source for their hives. The pollen used in skincare is typically harvested from the legs of bees as they return to the hive. This raw pollen is then processed and purified to be used as an ingredient in skincare products. Pollen can be sourced from a variety of flowering plants around the world, with different types of pollen offering slightly different benefits depending on the plant species.
