Abstract

here were about 500 stingless bee (SB) species that had been reported in Afrotropical, Indo-Australian and Neotropical provinces with the highest diversity species originating in the Neotropical. In Malaysia, there are more than 38 species and around 33 species were reported in Peninsular Malaysia. Due to its high nutritional and medicinal values, recently, stingless bee honey (SBH) has been highly demanded by the food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. Thus, this paper will describe the cosmeceutical potential of SBH as an antiacne, skin moisturizing and anti-hypertrophic scar agent. SBH can treat acne by reducing inflammation and irritation during acne formation due to its high flavonoid and phenolic content.
