FAQ
Can I use Organic Cucumber Balm for psoriasis or eczema?
Organic Cucumber Balm is a cosmetic product intended for moisturizing and soothing dry skin. It is not a medication for psoriasis or atopic eczema. For sensitive skin, we recommend first performing a patch test on a small area and not applying to open or weeping areas; for chronic issues, follow the advice of a dermatologist.
How does Organic Cucumber Balm smell?
It is without synthetic fragrance and without essential oils. The scent is delicate and fresh, cucumber; it comes from cucumber oil and usually quickly dissipates, so it does not overpower other scents.

In the EU, cosmetics are cruelty-free by law. Medarek manufactures in the Czech Republic in accordance with Regulation (EC) 1223/2009 and related legislation.
Are the products suitable for children and sensitive skin?
Yes. The brand offers gentle formulas for sensitive skin and children. For very sensitive skin, we recommend a patch test and checking the composition (INCI).
Do the products contain fragrance or allergens?
Medarek does not use synthetic fragrance; some products contain essential oils, which may have natural allergens. Always please read the INCI and consider a patch test if you have sensitivities.

Who is Medarek?
It is a young family trying to live in harmony with nature. They are interested in health, beekeeping, mix their own cosmetics, like to take photos, brew their own beer and generally do many things their own way.
Lead developer - Lucie
... the driving force behind the whole family and the family "business" is Lucka, who has only limited knowledge about bees, but a greater understanding of the honey bee business.
Lucka graduated with a Master's degree in special education with a focus on speech therapy, surdopedics and specific learning disorders at Masaryk University. For five years she worked as a teacher in a speech therapy class in a kindergarten, but eventually fate took her in a completely different direction.
Some ask her if she regrets spending her time studying at college now that she's devoting her time to mixing ointments. However, she feels grateful to be her own boss (unless her son Vasik or daughter Helenka is in charge at home :)), and to be able to bring joy with her products.
It warms her heart to see that her zinc ointment helps little babies with skin problems, and she enjoys the idea of wedding guests enjoying the honey she has decorated at night.
Photographer - Standa
...he is not only the head of the family, but also a court photographer and a passionate beekeeper who is not only interested in bees and honey, but also makes his own homemade mead and beer. His genius idea was the popular wedding teddy bears :) .
Standa graduated from an industrial secondary school with a focus on mechanical engineering and after almost three years of working in the workshop he became a designer, where he spent the next 12 years. He left for work each workday with the hope that he would soon be able to stay home with his family.
And now his dream has finally come true! Standa is now probably the real driving force behind medarek.cz, where he takes care of operations, cooking, packing shipments and lovingly devotes himself to children. As a model husband, he doesn't shy away from the simple chores :).
In his spare time, he enjoys capturing nature, people, bees and sometimes his family on his camera. When he needs to stretch his stiff body, he happily reaches for his bike and heads out into the countryside.
