{"title":"Ballot-Flurin","description":"\u003cp\u003eBallot-Flurin is a house of beekeepers from the French Pyrenees that turns propolis, honey, pollen, royal jelly and beeswax into organic hive preparations and skin care.

Turning away from the intensive methods she was taught, she developed her own gentle beekeeping method, based on respect for bees and their natural rhythms. With her partner Philippe Ballot, also a beekeeper, she set up her first hives on a small property at the foot of the Pyrenees, and the Ballot-Flurin beekeeping farm was officially created in 1982. The couple were among the first to campaign for organic beekeeping without chemical inputs. The specifications Catherine wrote on how she produced honey and cared for her bees inspired the French association Nature \u0026amp; Progres when it created the first organic standard for beekeeping, and Ballot-Flurin products were the first to be certified under it. The Pyrenees Care Balm opened the brand's first range of hive-based care in 1992, followed by the black propolis extract, propolis gums, soaps and honey shampoos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Ballot-Flurin Product Lines\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/ballot-flurin-french-black-propolis-extract\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrench Black Propolis Extract\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e: A very concentrated organic tincture of raw black propolis from the brand's French apiaries, refined by an artisanal process, at one to two drops a day.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/ballot-flurin-pyrenees-care-balm-black-propolis\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePyrenees Care Balm with Black Propolis\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e: A multi-purpose organic balm with beeswax and black propolis, inspired by an old shepherd's recipe, for lips, hands, feet and dry spots.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/ballot-flurin-4-forces-of-the-hive-organic-dynamized-ampoules\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e4 Forces of the Hive Organic Dynamized Ampoules\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e: Raw forest honey, polyfloral pollen, black propolis extract and French royal jelly in organic 10ml ampoules for a 10-day program.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Ingredients and Technology\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePropolis is at the heart of the range.
