The story behind our vision
Hey, I’m Betül — founder and the “Bee” of bedrop.
I’ve suffered from dry, itchy skin and eczema since childhood. It got especially bad during stressful periods or in winter — and for a long time I searched for something that truly helped.
The answer was actually something I’d encountered much earlier: bee products. As a child, bee pollen and propolis were a natural part of my life, until that knowledge slipped away.
Years later I remembered and began using propolis deliberately again for my skin and wellbeing. Then things changed: my skin became noticeably calmer, more resilient and less irritated. I simply felt better and more vital in everyday life.
My husband, Florian, has been with me on this journey and quickly realized that this knowledge should reach many more people.
More and more people are seeking natural alternatives and consciously choosing products that are in harmony with nature.
This is exactly where we come in: We combine time-tested knowledge with modern standards. Whether for your well-being or your skincare—bee products can support you in many ways.
Responsibility is important to us—both in the selection of our materials and in the way we work. It goes without saying that we proceed carefully and thoughtfully.
That’s how bedrop was born. We founded our startup in 2020—with the desire to support people in their skincare and overall well-being using the power of bees. Our skin is our largest organ, and protecting it is especially close to our hearts 💛
Judith Williams trusts bedrop
Securing Judith Williams as an investor was a very special moment for bedrop.
“She has always been an admirable figure to me. She has known propolis since childhood and it has long been a staple in her handbag. With my story and the quality of our propolis tinctures, I was able to win her over for bedrop and our Honeybees. Together we are bringing the well‑known propolis tincture and all other bee products into the present day,” says Betül Yönak‑Bein.
"Every household needs a propolis tincture"
Our mission
Bee products are true all-arounders in our daily lives, which is why they belong in every household.
As far back as ancient Egypt and antiquity, people used bee products such as propolis, royal jelly, bee venom, and honey. A shift in people’s thinking is becoming increasingly widespread, and so we want to integrate these time-honored products into modern life.
Instead of synthetically produced products, many are increasingly turning to natural alternatives. Bee products support you in countless ways throughout your daily life.
Responsibility is important to us—both in the selection of our materials and in the way we work. It goes without saying that we proceed carefully and thoughtfully.
The well-being of bees is close to our hearts. We want to make a difference and have launched our own project this year: a flowering meadow that serves as a refuge for bees and other insects.
