Your Honey-fied Beauty Routine

From: TheBeautyProof

Ah, honey: a thing of beauty. The same stuff that works wonders on your taste buds can also be wonderful for your face and skin. Honey’s so versatile, it’s practically got your whole beauty routine covered on its own. To prove it, here’s a step-by-step guide for working raw and unfiltered local honey into your regular beauty regime.

Step 1: Face Mask

How it works: Apply a thin layer of honey all over your face and leave it on for up to 20 minutes, then rinse thoroughly and rub the remainder off.

Step 2: Exfoliant

How it works: Rub a small amount of honey between your fingers to warm it up, then rub it onto your face in small, circular motions. Leave it on for five minutes or so before massaging it off with a wet towel.

Step 3: Acne Spot Treatment

How it works:  Cover the breakout with a thick dab of raw honey, then rinse it off after 10 to 15 minutes.

Step 4: Bath Soak

How it works: Start at the sink, dissolving two tablespoons of raw honey into one cup of very hot water. Pour the mixture into a tub of warm water and soak. You may want to add more, up to a total of one cup of honey.

Step 6: Eye Cream

How it works: Wash your face. Rub honey gently around your eyes. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes before rinsing off with water.
