Hive & Mane was created to be a natural & organic alternative to commonly used lip balms and other skincare. How did it come about? When two young men dreamed of a future where they could put their talents to good use - in the hopes of making their lives, and the world, better. Kurt Lechner (one of the founders of Hive and Mane) had an early understanding of how nature involving bees, works. So, he infused the work of his bees, with other elements which are simple and stay close to nature. Alan Jose (also one of the founders of Hive and Mane) has a strong belief he can get this product onto the people and is determined to deliver products of the highest standard and competitive quality. This fuels his passion forward - for an organic alternative for skincare products. Together they see this endeavor as a stepping stone towards greater advancements, not only in the skin care industry, but also for human health and wellbeing. Our products are made and sourced within Australia, using our own beeswax & honey.
