Queen Camilla adheres strictly to purchasing restrictions for her favourite bee venom skincare, despite her royal status.
The exclusive Gold Bee Venom Mask, priced at £370, has an annual production limit of just 500 units.
"We don't let customers buy multiple pots at a time, and even the Queen sticks to the rules very rigidly as she knows how special it is," Deborah Mitchell, the Queen's facialist of over two decades, explained.
The organic cream, which contains the world's rarest bee venom, has become a coveted item among skincare enthusiasts.
The limited availability makes it the most expensive product in Mitchell's range.
Mitchell once created a special surprise for her royal client by incorporating an ingredient from the Queen's own garden.
"One day, I decided to surprise her, and I used some of her own honey to make her Bee Venom products and gave it back to her!" Mitchell revealed to People Magazine.
The Queen's honey, which she sells for charity at Fortnum and Mason, became part of her personalised skincare routine without her initial knowledge.
The Gold Bee Venom Mask is made form the world's rarest bee venom.

"She loves her bees!" Mitchell added.
Queen Camilla was among Mitchell's first clients to try the bee venom products when they were initially developed and has remained loyal to the range ever since.
The Gold Bee Venom Mask works by tightening and lifting facial muscles through its patented ingredient, organic Abeetoxin.
It is extracted by milking bees to obtain their healing venom.
The Queen purchases one of the only 500 bottles produced every year.

"It's more of a skin cure; it's very healing. Every time you put it onto your skin, it thinks it's been stung. It literally makes your skin go back in time," Mitchell explained.
The anti-ageing product serves as a natural alternative to Botox and contains royal jelly and natural antibiotics.
Its healing properties make it particularly suitable for mature, blemished, eczema-prone or dry skin.
"When she first had the Bee Venom Facial, she absolutely loved it and it's still her favourite," Mitchell said.

Heaven by Deborah Mitchell achieved a significant milestone in December when it received a royal warrant from the Queen.
The brand became the first beauty company to be honoured for both products and treatments.
"It's just such a wonderful feeling, and to have it for both my products and my treatments, it's so special. I'm flying high!" Mitchell said.
The 59-year-old businesswoman founded the company as an 18-year-old beautician, initially creating beauty products from her kitchen table.
The royal warrant represents one of seven brands awarded the prestigious honour by Queen Camilla.
"It is a feeling that you cannot explain," Mitchell told GB News about the honour.
